Its fortress will suffer disgrace. It will be torn down! ² People will not praise Moab any more. The enemy will capture Heshbon and plot how to destroy Moab, saying, 'Come, let's put an end to that nation!' City of Madmen, you will also be destroyed. A destructive army will march against you. ³ Cries of anguish will arise in Horonaim, 'Oh, the ruin and great destruction!'
