⁷ Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, every one shall wail: for the ^[a]raisin-cakes of Kir-hareseth shall ye mourn, utterly stricken. ⁸ For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah; ^[b]the lords of the nations have broken down the choice branches thereof, which reached even unto Jazer, which wandered into the wilderness; its shoots were spread abroad, they passed over the sea. ⁹ Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah; I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for upon thy summer fruits and upon thy harvest the battle shout is fallen.
