Therefore Moab shall (A)wail for Moab;
Everyone shall wail.
For the foundations (B)of Kir Hareseth you shall mourn;
Surely they are stricken.

For (C)the fields of Heshbon languish,
And (D)the vine of Sibmah;
The lords of the nations have broken down its choice plants,
Which have reached to Jazer
And wandered through the wilderness.
Her branches are stretched out,
They are gone over the (E)sea.
Therefore I will bewail the vine of Sibmah,
With the weeping of Jazer;
I will drench you with my tears,
(F)O Heshbon and Elealeh;
For [a]battle cries have fallen
Over your summer fruits and your harvest.
