“Take counsel, execute judgment;
Make your shadow like the night in the middle of the day;
Hide the outcasts,
Do not betray him who escapes.
Let My outcasts dwell with you, O Moab;
Be a shelter to them from the face of the [a]spoiler.
For the extortioner is at an end,
Devastation ceases,
The oppressors are consumed out of the land.

  1. Isaiah 16:4 devastator

“Make up your mind,” Moab says.
    “Render a decision.
Make your shadow like night—
    at high noon.
Hide the fugitives,(A)
    do not betray the refugees.
Let the Moabite fugitives stay with you;
    be their shelter(B) from the destroyer.”

The oppressor(C) will come to an end,
    and destruction will cease;(D)
    the aggressor will vanish from the land.
