Therefore Moab shall wail for Moab, everyone shall wail. Ye shall mourn for the raisin-cakes of Kir-hareseth, utterly stricken.

Therefore my heart sounds like a harp for Moab, and my inward parts for Kir-heres.

And Elam bore the quiver, with chariots of men [and] horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.
