Give wing to Moab, For she must, fly away; And her cities To desolation, shall be turned, With no inhabitant therein.

For the Lord says, "Look! Like an eagle with outspread wings a nation will swoop down on Moab.

Look! Like an eagle with outspread wings, a nation will soar up and swoop down on Bozrah. At that time the soldiers of Edom will be as fearful as a woman in labor."

Lift up a signal in the land [to spread the news]!
Blow the trumpet among the nations!
Dedicate the nations [for war] against her;
Call against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz.
Appoint a marshal against her;
Cause the horses to come up like bristly locusts [with their wings not yet released from their cases].

Upon thy wings is found the blood of poor and innocent people; and that not in corners and holes only, but openly in all these places.
