The house is gone up, and Dibon to the high places to mourn over Nabo, and over Medaba, Moab hath howled: ton all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard shall be shaven.

In their streets they are girded with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets all shall howl and come down weeping.

Hesebon shall cry, and Eleale, their voice is heard even to Jasa. For this shall the well appointed men of Moab howl, his soul shall howl to itself.

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.
