O Moab is confounded and overcome. Mourn and cry, tell it out at Arnon, that Moab is destroyed.

Therefore shall their mourning be made for Moab, and every man shall cry for Moab's sake: a lamentation shall be made to the men that stand upon the wall.

Upon all the housetops and streets of Moab, there shall be mourning: For I will break Moab like an unprofitable vessel sayeth the LORD.

O how fearful is she? O how mourneth she? O how doth Moab hang down her head, and is ashamed? Thus shall Moab be a laughingstock, and had in derision of all them, that be round about her.

Yet at the last will I bring Moab out of captivity again, sayeth the LORD." Thus far is the plague of Moab.
