An Oracle concerning Moab
15 An oracle concerning Moab.
Because Ar is laid waste in a night,
Moab is undone;
because Kir is laid waste in a night,
Moab is undone.
2 Dibon[a] has gone up to the temple,
to the high places to weep;
over Nebo and over Medeba
Moab wails.
On every head is baldness,
every beard is shorn;
3 in the streets they bind on sackcloth;
on the housetops and in the squares
everyone wails and melts in tears.
4 Heshbon and Elealeh cry out,
their voices are heard as far as Jahaz;
therefore the loins of Moab quiver;[b]
his soul trembles.
5 My heart cries out for Moab;
his fugitives flee to Zoar,
to Eglath-shelishiyah.
For at the ascent of Luhith
they go up weeping;
on the road to Horonaim
they raise a cry of destruction;
6 the waters of Nimrim
are a desolation;
the grass is withered, the new growth fails,
the verdure is no more.
7 Therefore the abundance they have gained
and what they have laid up
they carry away
over the Wadi of the Willows.
8 For a cry has gone
around the land of Moab;
the wailing reaches to Eglaim,
the wailing reaches to Beer-elim.
9 For the waters of Dibon[c] are full of blood;
yet I will bring upon Dibon[d] even more—
a lion for those of Moab who escape,
for 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.

Profecía acerca de Moab
15 Profecía acerca de Moab.(A)
Es un hecho: durante la noche, Ar de Moab fue totalmente destruida y reducida al silencio.
Es un hecho: durante la noche, Quir de Moab fue totalmente destruida y reducida al silencio.
2 Moab sube a Bayit y a Dibón, lugares altos, para llorar; allí chilla de dolor por Nebo y por Medeba. Toda cabeza en ella es rapada; toda barba es rasurada. 3 Todos andan por las calle vestidos de cilicio; en sus azoteas y en sus plazas aúllan y se deshacen en llanto.
4 Jesbón y Eleale gritan; su voz se oye hasta Yahás. Por eso aúllan los guerreros de Moab; por eso el alma se les estremece.
5 Mi corazón grita por Moab; sus fugitivos huyen hasta Soar, hasta Eglat Selisiyá. Por la cuesta de Luhit van llorando; por el camino de Joronayin lanzan gritos de dolor.
6 Es un hecho: las aguas de Nimrín se consumen; la hierba se seca; los retoños se marchitan; todo el verdor desaparece. 7 Por eso llevan al torrente de los sauces las riquezas que ganaron, junto con sus reservas.
8 Es un hecho: el llanto rodeó los linderos de Moab; hasta Eglayin llegó su alarido, y hasta Ber Elim su clamor.
9 Es un hecho: las aguas de Dimón se llenarán de sangre. Pero yo traeré sobre Dimón males mayores: ¡traeré leones sobre los que se escapen de Moab y sobre los sobrevivientes de la tierra!
