“Wail, O (A)Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste!
    Cry out, O daughters of (B)Rabbah!
(C)Put on sackcloth,
    lament, and run to and fro among the hedges!
For (D)Milcom shall go into exile,
    (E)with his priests and his officials.
Why do you boast of your valleys,[a]
    (F)O faithless daughter,
(G)who trusted in her treasures, saying,
    ‘Who will come against me?’
Behold, (H)I will bring terror upon you,
    declares the Lord God of hosts,
    from all who are around you,
and you shall be driven out, every man straight before him,
    with none to gather the fugitives.
