Context Readings

Moab's Hopeless Situation

10 And joy and gladness are taken away from the fruitful land, and in the vineyards no one exults, no one shouts for joy; no treader treads wine in the presses; I have put to an end to [the] jubilant shout. 11 Therefore my {heart moans} like harp for Moab and my inner parts for Kir-heres. 12 And this shall happen: when Moab appears, when it is weary upon the high place and it comes to its sanctuary to pray, it will not prevail.
