Isaiah 15
New American Standard Bible
Judgment on Moab
15 The pronouncement concerning (A)Moab:
Certainly in a night (B)Ar of Moab is devastated and ruined;
Certainly in a night Kir of Moab is devastated and ruined.
2 [a]The people have gone up to the [b]temple and to (C)Dibon, to the high places to weep.
Moab wails over Nebo and Medeba;
Everyone’s head is (D)bald and every beard is cut off.
3 In their streets they have put on (E)sackcloth;
(F)On their housetops and in their public squares
Everyone is wailing, [c](G)overcome with weeping.
4 (H)Heshbon and Elealeh also cry out,
Their voice is heard all the way to Jahaz;
Therefore the [d]armed men of Moab cry aloud;
His soul trembles within him.
5 My heart cries out for Moab;
His fugitives are as far as (I)Zoar and Eglath-shelishiyah,
For they go up the (J)ascent of Luhith weeping;
Indeed, on the road to Horonaim they raise a cry of distress (K)over their collapse.
6 For the (L)waters of Nimrim are [e]desolate.
Indeed, the grass is withered, the new growth has died,
There is (M)no greenery.
7 Therefore the (N)abundance which they have acquired and stored up,
They carry it off over the brook of [f]Arabim.
8 For the cry of distress has gone around the territory of Moab,
Its wailing goes as far as Eglaim and its howling to Beer-elim.
9 For the waters of Dimon are full of [g]blood;
I will certainly bring added woes upon Dimon,
A (O)lion upon the fugitives of Moab and the remnant of the land.

A Prophecy Against Moab(A)
15 A prophecy(B) against Moab:(C)
Ar(D) in Moab is ruined,(E)
destroyed in a night!
Kir(F) in Moab is ruined,
destroyed in a night!
2 Dibon(G) goes up to its temple,
to its high places(H) to weep;
Moab wails(I) over Nebo(J) and Medeba.
Every head is shaved(K)
and every beard cut off.(L)
3 In the streets they wear sackcloth;(M)
on the roofs(N) and in the public squares(O)
they all wail,(P)
prostrate with weeping.(Q)
4 Heshbon(R) and Elealeh(S) cry out,
their voices are heard all the way to Jahaz.(T)
Therefore the armed men of Moab cry out,
and their hearts are faint.
5 My heart cries out(U) over Moab;(V)
her fugitives(W) flee as far as Zoar,(X)
as far as Eglath Shelishiyah.
They go up the hill to Luhith,
weeping as they go;
on the road to Horonaim(Y)
they lament their destruction.(Z)
6 The waters of Nimrim are dried up(AA)
and the grass is withered;(AB)
the vegetation is gone(AC)
and nothing green is left.(AD)
7 So the wealth they have acquired(AE) and stored up
they carry away over the Ravine of the Poplars.
8 Their outcry echoes along the border of Moab;
their wailing reaches as far as Eglaim,
their lamentation as far as Beer(AF) Elim.
9 The waters of Dimon[a] are full of blood,
but I will bring still more upon Dimon[b]—
a lion(AG) upon the fugitives of Moab(AH)
and upon those who remain in the land.

Amplified Bible
Judgment on Moab
15 The [mournful, inspired] oracle ([a]a burden to be carried) concerning Moab:
Because in a night Ar of Moab is devastated and ruined;
Because in a night Kir of Moab is devastated and ruined.
2
They have gone up to the temple and to Dibon, to the high places to weep.
Moab wails over Nebo and over Medeba;
Everyone’s head is shaved, and every beard is cut off [in mourning].(A)
3
In their streets they have wrapped themselves with sackcloth;
On their [flat] housetops and in their open squares
Everyone is wailing, dissolved in tears.
4
Heshbon and Elealeh [cities claimed by Moab] cry out;
Their voice is heard as far as Jahaz.
Therefore the armed men of Moab cry out;
Moab’s soul trembles within him.
5
My heart cries out for Moab;
His fugitives are [fleeing] as far as Zoar and Eglath-shelishiyah.
For they go up the ascent of Luhith weeping;
For on the road to Horonaim they raise a cry of distress over their destruction.(B)
6
For the waters of Nimrim are desolate.
Indeed the grass is withered, the new growth dies;
There is no green thing.
7
Therefore the abundance which they have acquired and stored away
They carry off over the Brook of the Willows.
8
For the cry of distress has echoed around the territory of Moab;
The wailing goes as far as Eglaim and the mournful cry to Beer-elim.
9
For the waters of Dimon are full of blood;
Yet I will bring even more woes on Dimon—
A lion upon those of Moab who escape and upon the remnant of the land.

Predição da ruína de Moabe
15 Peso de Moabe. Certamente, em uma noite, foi destruída Ar de Moabe e foi desfeita; certamente, em uma noite, foi destruída Quir de Moabe e foi desfeita. 2 Vai subindo a Bajite, e a Dibom, e aos lugares altos, a chorar; por Nebo e por Medeba, Moabe uivará; todas as cabeças ficarão calvas, e toda barba será rapada. 3 Cingiram-se de panos de saco nas suas ruas; nos seus terraços e nas suas praças, todos andam uivando e choram abundantemente. 4 Assim Hesbom, como Eleale, anda gritando; até Jaza se ouve a sua voz; por isso, os armados de Moabe clamam; a sua alma treme dentro deles.
5 O meu coração clama por causa de Moabe; fugiram os seus nobres para Zoar, como a novilha de três anos, porque vão chorando pela subida de Luíte, porque, no caminho de Horonaim, levantam um lastimoso pranto. 6 Porque as águas de Ninrim serão pura assolação; porque se secou o feno, definhou a erva, e não há verdura alguma. 7 Pelo que a abundância que ajuntaram e o que guardaram, ao ribeiro dos salgueiros, o levarão. 8 Porque o pranto rodeará os limites de Moabe; até Eglaim chegará o seu clamor, e ainda até Beer-Elim chegará o seu rugido. 9 Porquanto as águas de Dimom estão cheias de sangue, porque ainda acrescentarei mais a Dimom: leões contra aqueles que escaparem de Moabe e contra as relíquias da terra.
