A Message for Moab

“This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because the people of Moab[a] have said that Judah is just like all the other nations, I will open up their eastern flank and wipe out their glorious frontier towns—Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon, and Kiriathaim. 10 And I will hand Moab over to nomads from the eastern deserts, just as I handed over Ammon. Yes, the Ammonites will no longer be counted among the nations. 11 In the same way, I will bring my judgment down on the Moabites. Then they will know that I am the Lord.

Moab

‘The Lord God says this: “Because (A)Moab and Seir say, ‘Behold, the house of Judah is like all the nations,’ therefore, behold, I am going to [a]deprive the flank of Moab of its cities, of its cities [b]which are on its frontiers, the glory of the land, (B)Beth-jeshimoth, (C)Baal-meon, and (D)Kiriathaim; 10 and I will give it as a possession along with the sons of Ammon to the [c](E)people of the east, so that the sons of Ammon will not be remembered among the nations. 11 So I will execute judgments on Moab, and they will know that I am the Lord.”
