The word about Moab. For in a night Ar of Moab has become waste, and is seen no longer; for in a night Kir of Moab has become waste, and is seen no longer.

For this cause everyone in Moab will give cries of grief for Moab: crushed to the earth, they will be weeping for the men of Kir-hareseth.

For this cause the cords of my heart are sounding for Moab, and I am full of sorrow for Kir-heres.

And Elam was armed with arrows, and Aram came on horseback; and the breastplate of Kir was uncovered.
