Isaiah 15:1-3
International Standard Version
Moab’s Pending Judgment
15 A message[a] concerning Moab:
“For Ir[b] in Moab is destroyed in a night,
and Moab[c] is ruined!
Because Ir[d] in Moab is destroyed in a single night,
Moab is ruined!
2 He has gone up to the temple, and to Dibon,
to the high places to weep;
over Nebo and over Medeba
Moab wails.
His head is completely[e] bald,
and[f] every beard is shaved off.
3 In its streets they wear sackcloth;
on its rooftops and in its squares
everyone wails and falls down[g] weeping.
