    their lamentation as far as Beer(A) Elim.

31 Therefore I wail(A) over Moab,
    for all Moab I cry out,
    I moan for the people of Kir Hareseth.(B)
32 I weep for you, as Jazer(C) weeps,
    you vines of Sibmah.(D)
Your branches spread as far as the sea[a];
    they reached as far as[b] Jazer.
The destroyer has fallen
    on your ripened fruit and grapes.
33 Joy and gladness are gone
    from the orchards and fields of Moab.
I have stopped the flow of wine(E) from the presses;
    no one treads them with shouts of joy.(F)
Although there are shouts,
    they are not shouts of joy.

34 “The sound of their cry rises
    from Heshbon(G) to Elealeh(H) and Jahaz,(I)
from Zoar(J) as far as Horonaim(K) and Eglath Shelishiyah,
    for even the waters of Nimrim are dried up.(L)

31 Therefore will I howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; mine heart shall mourn for the men of Kirheres.

32 O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for thee with the weeping of Jazer: thy plants are gone over the sea, they reach even to the sea of Jazer: the spoiler is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.

33 And joy and gladness is taken from the plentiful field, and from the land of Moab, and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses: none shall tread with shouting; their shouting shall be no shouting.

34 From the cry of Heshbon even unto Elealeh, and even unto Jahaz, have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even unto Horonaim, as an heifer of three years old: for the waters also of Nimrim shall be desolate.

Dibon(A) goes up to its temple,
    to its high places(B) to weep;
    Moab wails(C) over Nebo(D) and Medeba.
Every head is shaved(E)
    and every beard cut off.(F)
In the streets they wear sackcloth;(G)
    on the roofs(H) and in the public squares(I)
they all wail,(J)
    prostrate with weeping.(K)
Heshbon(L) and Elealeh(M) cry out,
    their voices are heard all the way to Jahaz.(N)
Therefore the armed men of Moab cry out,
    and their hearts are faint.

My heart cries out(O) over Moab;(P)
    her fugitives(Q) flee as far as Zoar,(R)
    as far as Eglath Shelishiyah.
They go up the hill to Luhith,
    weeping as they go;
on the road to Horonaim(S)
    they lament their destruction.(T)

He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off.

In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly.

And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous unto him.

My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction.
