Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer, and of the vine of Sibmah, O Heshbon! And Elealeh, I will make you drunk with my tears, because upon your summer fruits, and upon your harvest, a shouting has fallen.

10 And gladness is taken away, and joy, out of the plentiful field. And in the vineyards shall be no singing or shouting for joy. The treader shall not tread wine in the wine presses. I have caused the rejoicing to cease.

11 Therefore, my bowels shall sound like a harp for Moab, and my core for Kir Heres.

So I weep,(A) as Jazer weeps,
    for the vines of Sibmah.
Heshbon and Elealeh,(B)
    I drench you with tears!(C)
The shouts of joy(D) over your ripened fruit
    and over your harvests(E) have been stilled.
10 Joy and gladness are taken away from the orchards;(F)
    no one sings or shouts(G) in the vineyards;
no one treads(H) out wine at the presses,(I)
    for I have put an end to the shouting.
11 My heart laments for Moab(J) like a harp,(K)
    my inmost being(L) for Kir Hareseth.
