He will be a sanctuary;
but for the two houses of Israel,
He will be a stone to stumble over
and a rock to trip over,
and a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

When Moab appears on the high place,
when he tires himself out
and comes to his sanctuary to pray,
it will do him no good.

So I defiled the officers of the sanctuary,
and set Jacob apart for destruction
and Israel for abuse.

The glory of Lebanon will come to you—
its pine, fir, and cypress together—
to beautify the place of My sanctuary,
and I will glorify My dwelling place.

Your holy people had a possession
for a little while,
but our enemies have trampled down
Your sanctuary.
