48 Kundër Moabit. Kështu thotë Zoti i ushtrive, Perëndia i Izraelit: "Mjerë Nebi, sepse u shkatërrua; Kiriathaimi është mbuluar nga turpi, është pushtuar; kështjella është mbuluar nga turpi dhe është e tronditur.
2 Lavdia e Moabit nuk është më; në Heshbon kurdisin të keqen kundër tij, duke thënë: "Ejani dhe ta shkatërrojmë, në mënyrë që të mos jetë më një komb". Edhe ti, o Madmen, do të shkatërrohesh, shpata do të të ndjekë.
3 Një zë që kërkon ndihmë do të dalë nga Horonaimi: shkatërrim dhe rrënim i thellë!
4 Maobi është copëtuar, të vegjlit e tij bëjnë që të dëgjohet zëri i tyre.
5 Mbi të përpjetën e Luhithit po ngjiten duke qarë në hidhërim, ndërsa në tatëpjetën e Horonaimit dëgjohet zëri plot ankth i disfatës.
6 Ikni, shpëtoni jetën tuaj dhe bëhuni si një marinë në shkretëtirë!
7 Duke qënë se ke pasë besim në veprat e tua dhe në thesaret e tua, edhe ti do të kapesh; dhe Kemoshi do të shkojë në robëri bashkë me priftërinjtë dhe princat e tij.
8 Shkatërruesi do të vijë kundër të gjitha qyteteve, dhe asnjë qytet nuk do të shpëtojë; lugina do të zhduket dhe fusha do të shkatërrohet, ashtu si ka thënë Zoti.
9 I jepni krahë Moabit, që të mund të fluturojë tutje; qytetet e tij do të bëhen të shkreta dhe askush nuk do të banojë në to.
10 I mallkuar qoftë ai që kryen veprën e Zotit shkel e shko, i mallkuar qoftë ai që e pengon shpatën e tij të derdhë gjak!
11 Moabi ka qënë i qetë qysh në moshë të re, duke pushuar mbi llumin e tij, dhe nuk ka kaluar nga një enë në enën tjetër dhe as që ka shkuar në robëri; prandaj i ka mbetur shija e tij dhe parfumi i tij nuk ka pësuar ndryshime.
12 Prandaj ja, do vijnë ditët," thotë Zoti, "në të cilat do t’i dërgoj disa njerëz që do t’i toçitin enët; do t’i zbrazin enët e tij dhe do t’i thyejnë anforat e tij.
13 Atëherë Moabit do t’i vijë turp nga Kemoshi, ashtu si shtëpia e Izraelit u turpërua nga Betheli, tek i cili kishte pasur besim.
14 Si mund të thoni: "Ne jemi burra të fortë dhe trima për betejën"?
15 Moabi është shkatërruar; qytetet e tij po nxjerrin tym dhe të rinjtë e tyre më të mirë zbresin në kasaphanë," thotë Mbreti emri i të cilit është Zoti i ushtrive.
16 Gjëma e Moabit është tashmë e afërt dhe kobi po i vjen me hapa të shpejtë.
17 Mbani zi për të, të gjithë ju që e rrethoni dhe të gjithë ju, që njihni emrin e tij, thoni: "Si u thye ai skeptër i fortë, ai bastun i mrekullushëm?".
18 O bijë që banon në Dibon, zbrit nga lavdia jote dhe ulu në tokën e zhuritur, sepse shkatërruesi i Moabit ka dalë kundër teje, ka shkatërruar kështjellat e tua.
19 O ti që banon në Aroer, ndalu gjatë rrugës dhe shiko; merr në pyetje ikanakun dhe atë që po ikën dhe pyet: "Çfarë ka ndodhur?".
20 Moabi është mbuluar me turp, sepse është i thyer; rënkoni dhe bërtisni, njoftoni mbi Arnonin që Moabi është shkatërruar!
21 Një ndëshkim erdhi mbi krahinën e fushës, mbi Holon, mbi Jahatsin dhe mbi Mefaathin,
22 mbi Dibonin, Nebon dhe mbi Beth-Diblathaimin,
23 mbi Kiriathaimin, Beth-Gamulin dhe Beth-Meon,
24 mbi Keriothin, Botsrahun dhe mbi tërë qytetet e vendit të Moabit, të largëta dhe të afërta.
25 Briri i Moabit është prerë dhe krahu i tij është copëtuar," thotë Zoti.
26 "Deheni, sepse është ngritur kundër Zotit. Moabi do të vërtitet në të vjellat e tij dhe do të bëhet edhe ai objekt talljeje.
27 Izraeli vallë nuk ka qënë për ty një objekt talljeje? Mos u gjet vallë midis hajdutëve, sepse sa herë që ti flet për të ti po tund kokën?
28 Braktisni qytetet dhe shkoni të banoni në shkëmb, o banorë të Moabit, dhe bëhuni si pëllumbesha që bën folenë e saj në faqet e një gremine.
29 Kemi dëgjuar krenarinë e Moabit, jashtëzakonisht krenar, fodullëkun e tij, kryeneçësinë e tij, arrogancën e tij dhe mendjemadhësinë e zemrës së tij.
30 Unë e njoh tërbimin e tij," thotë Zoti, "që nuk ka përmbajtje, të mburrurit e tij që nuk ka përfunduar në asgjë.
31 Prandaj unë po ngre një vajtim mbi Moabin dhe do të lëshoj britma nëpër të gjithë Moabin; do të vajtohet për burrat e Kir-Heresit.
32 O vreshtë e Sibmahut, unë qaj për ty ashtu si qahet për Jazerin; shermendet e tua kanë arritur matanë detit, arrinin deri në detin e Jazerit. Shkatërruesi i tij është sulur mbi frytet e tua verore dhe mbi rrushin që do vilej.
33 Gëzimi dhe hareja janë zhdukur nga fusha pjellore dhe nga vendi i Moabit; bëra që të zhduket vera nga butet, askush nuk e shtrydh më rrushin me britma gëzimi, britmat e tyre nuk janë më britma gëzimi.
34 Për shkak të britmës së Heshbonit zëri i tyre u dëgjua deri në Elealeh dhe në Jehats, nga Tsoari deri në Horonaim, ashtu si një lopë trevjeçare; ujrat e Nimrimit madje janë bërë një shkreti.
35 Unë do të fik në Moab," thotë Zoti, "atë që ofron flijime mbi vendet e larta dhe atë që u djeg temjan perëndive të tij.
36 Prandaj zemra ime për Moabin do të qajë si fyejt, zemra ime do të qajë si fyejt për burrat e Kir-Heresit, sepse pasuria që kanë fituar ka humbur.
37 Sepse çdo kokë do të rruhet, çdo mjekër do të pritet, mbi të gjitha duart do të ketë të prera dhe mbi ijët do të jetë thesi.
38 Mbi të gjitha çatitë e Moabit dhe në sheshet e tij s’ka veçse vajtim, sepse unë e kam bërë copë-copë Moabin, si një enë që nuk ka më vlerë," thotë Zoti.
39 "Do të vajtojnë duke thënë: "Si u thye! Si ka kthyer Moabi paturpësisht kurrizin! Si është bërë Moabi tallja dhe frika e atyre që i rinë rrotull"".
40 Sepse kështu thotë Zoti: "Ja, ai do të nisë fluturimin si një shqiponjë dhe do t’i hapë krahët e tij në drejtim të Moabit.
41 Keriothi u pushtua, fortesat janë zënë dhe zemra e trimave të Moabit në atë ditë do të jetë si zemra e një gruaje në dhembjet e lindjes.
42 Moabi do të shkatërrohet, nuk do të jetë më popull, sepse është ngritur kundër Zotit.
43 Frika, gropa, laku të kërcënojnë, o banor i Moabit" thotë Zoti.
44 "Kush ikën përpara frikës do të bjerë në gropë dhe kush del nga gropa do të kapet në lak, sepse unë do të sjell mbi të, mbi Moabin vitin e ndëshkimit të tij" thotë Zoti.
45 "Në hijen e Heshbonit ndalen, të kapitur, ikanakët, por një zjarr del nga Heshboni dhe një flakë nga mesi i Sihonit, që përpin anët e Moabit dhe pjesën e sipërme të kokës së njerëzve kryengritës.
46 Mjerë ti, O Moab! Populli i Kemoshit është i humbur sepse bijtë e tu janë çuar në robëri dhe bijat e tua në mërgim.
47 Por unë do të kthej Moabin nga robëria gjatë ditëve të fundit, thotë Zoti". Deri këtu gjykim mbi Moabin.

A Message About Moab(A)
48 Concerning Moab:(B)
This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says:
“Woe to Nebo,(C) for it will be ruined.
Kiriathaim(D) will be disgraced and captured;
the stronghold[a] will be disgraced and shattered.
2 Moab will be praised(E) no more;
in Heshbon[b](F) people will plot her downfall:
‘Come, let us put an end to that nation.’(G)
You, the people of Madmen,[c] will also be silenced;
the sword will pursue you.
3 Cries of anguish arise from Horonaim,(H)
cries of great havoc and destruction.
4 Moab will be broken;
her little ones will cry out.[d]
5 They go up the hill to Luhith,(I)
weeping bitterly as they go;
on the road down to Horonaim(J)
anguished cries over the destruction are heard.
6 Flee!(K) Run for your lives;
become like a bush[e] in the desert.(L)
7 Since you trust in your deeds and riches,(M)
you too will be taken captive,
and Chemosh(N) will go into exile,(O)
together with his priests and officials.(P)
8 The destroyer(Q) will come against every town,
and not a town will escape.
The valley will be ruined
and the plateau(R) destroyed,
because the Lord has spoken.
9 Put salt(S) on Moab,
for she will be laid waste[f];(T)
her towns will become desolate,
with no one to live in them.
10 “A curse on anyone who is lax in doing the Lord’s work!
A curse on anyone who keeps their sword(U) from bloodshed!(V)
11 “Moab has been at rest(W) from youth,
like wine left on its dregs,(X)
not poured from one jar to another—
she has not gone into exile.
So she tastes as she did,
and her aroma is unchanged.
12 But days are coming,”
declares the Lord,
“when I will send men who pour from pitchers,
and they will pour her out;
they will empty her pitchers
and smash her jars.
13 Then Moab will be ashamed(Y) of Chemosh,(Z)
as Israel was ashamed
when they trusted in Bethel.(AA)
14 “How can you say, ‘We are warriors,(AB)
men valiant in battle’?
15 Moab will be destroyed and her towns invaded;
her finest young men(AC) will go down in the slaughter,(AD)”
declares the King,(AE) whose name is the Lord Almighty.(AF)
16 “The fall of Moab is at hand;(AG)
her calamity will come quickly.
17 Mourn for her, all who live around her,
all who know her fame;(AH)
say, ‘How broken is the mighty scepter,(AI)
how broken the glorious staff!’
18 “Come down from your glory
and sit on the parched ground,(AJ)
you inhabitants of Daughter Dibon,(AK)
for the one who destroys Moab
will come up against you
and ruin your fortified cities.(AL)
19 Stand by the road and watch,
you who live in Aroer.(AM)
Ask the man fleeing and the woman escaping,
ask them, ‘What has happened?’
20 Moab is disgraced, for she is shattered.
Wail(AN) and cry out!
Announce by the Arnon(AO)
that Moab is destroyed.
21 Judgment has come to the plateau(AP)—
to Holon,(AQ) Jahzah(AR) and Mephaath,(AS)
22 to Dibon,(AT) Nebo(AU) and Beth Diblathaim,
23 to Kiriathaim,(AV) Beth Gamul and Beth Meon,(AW)
24 to Kerioth(AX) and Bozrah(AY)—
to all the towns(AZ) of Moab, far and near.
25 Moab’s horn[g](BA) is cut off;
her arm(BB) is broken,”
declares the Lord.
26 “Make her drunk,(BC)
for she has defied(BD) the Lord.
Let Moab wallow in her vomit;(BE)
let her be an object of ridicule.(BF)
27 Was not Israel the object of your ridicule?(BG)
Was she caught among thieves,(BH)
that you shake your head(BI) in scorn(BJ)
whenever you speak of her?
28 Abandon your towns and dwell among the rocks,
you who live in Moab.
Be like a dove(BK) that makes its nest
at the mouth of a cave.(BL)
29 “We have heard of Moab’s pride(BM)—
how great is her arrogance!—
of her insolence, her pride, her conceit
and the haughtiness(BN) of her heart.
30 I know her insolence but it is futile,”
declares the Lord,
“and her boasts(BO) accomplish nothing.
31 Therefore I wail(BP) over Moab,
for all Moab I cry out,
I moan for the people of Kir Hareseth.(BQ)
32 I weep for you, as Jazer(BR) weeps,
you vines of Sibmah.(BS)
Your branches spread as far as the sea[h];
they reached as far as[i] Jazer.
The destroyer has fallen
on your ripened fruit and grapes.
33 Joy and gladness are gone
from the orchards and fields of Moab.
I have stopped the flow of wine(BT) from the presses;
no one treads them with shouts of joy.(BU)
Although there are shouts,
they are not shouts of joy.
34 “The sound of their cry rises
from Heshbon(BV) to Elealeh(BW) and Jahaz,(BX)
from Zoar(BY) as far as Horonaim(BZ) and Eglath Shelishiyah,
for even the waters of Nimrim are dried up.(CA)
35 In Moab I will put an end
to those who make offerings on the high places(CB)
and burn incense(CC) to their gods,”
declares the Lord.
36 “So my heart laments(CD) for Moab like the music of a pipe;
it laments like a pipe for the people of Kir Hareseth.(CE)
The wealth they acquired(CF) is gone.
37 Every head is shaved(CG)
and every beard(CH) cut off;
every hand is slashed
and every waist is covered with sackcloth.(CI)
38 On all the roofs in Moab
and in the public squares(CJ)
there is nothing but mourning,
for I have broken Moab
like a jar(CK) that no one wants,”
declares the Lord.
39 “How shattered(CL) she is! How they wail!
How Moab turns her back in shame!
Moab has become an object of ridicule,(CM)
an object of horror to all those around her.”
40 This is what the Lord says:
“Look! An eagle is swooping(CN) down,
spreading its wings(CO) over Moab.
41 Kerioth[j](CP) will be captured
and the strongholds taken.
In that day the hearts of Moab’s warriors(CQ)
will be like the heart of a woman in labor.(CR)
42 Moab will be destroyed(CS) as a nation(CT)
because she defied(CU) the Lord.
43 Terror(CV) and pit and snare(CW) await you,
you people of Moab,”
declares the Lord.
44 “Whoever flees(CX) from the terror
will fall into a pit,
whoever climbs out of the pit
will be caught in a snare;
for I will bring on Moab
the year(CY) of her punishment,”
declares the Lord.
45 “In the shadow of Heshbon
the fugitives stand helpless,
for a fire has gone out from Heshbon,
a blaze from the midst of Sihon;(CZ)
it burns the foreheads of Moab,
the skulls(DA) of the noisy boasters.
46 Woe to you, Moab!(DB)
The people of Chemosh are destroyed;
your sons are taken into exile
and your daughters into captivity.
47 “Yet I will restore(DC) the fortunes of Moab
in days to come,”
declares the Lord.
Here ends the judgment on Moab.

King James Version
48 Against Moab thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Woe unto Nebo! for it is spoiled: Kiriathaim is confounded and taken: Misgab is confounded and dismayed.
2 There shall be no more praise of Moab: in Heshbon they have devised evil against it; come, and let us cut it off from being a nation. Also thou shalt be cut down, O Madmen; the sword shall pursue thee.
3 A voice of crying shall be from Horonaim, spoiling and great destruction.
4 Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
5 For in the going up of Luhith continual weeping shall go up; for in the going down of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.
6 Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.
7 For because thou hast trusted in thy works and in thy treasures, thou shalt also be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity with his priests and his princes together.
8 And the spoiler shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape: the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed, as the Lord hath spoken.
9 Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.
10 Cursed be he that doeth the work of the Lord deceitfully, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood.
11 Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither hath he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remained in him, and his scent is not changed.
12 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will send unto him wanderers, that shall cause him to wander, and shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles.
13 And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel their confidence.
14 How say ye, We are mighty and strong men for the war?
15 Moab is spoiled, and gone up out of her cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is the Lord of hosts.
16 The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast.
17 All ye that are about him, bemoan him; and all ye that know his name, say, How is the strong staff broken, and the beautiful rod!
18 Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon, come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon thee, and he shall destroy thy strong holds.
19 O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and espy; ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth, and say, What is done?
20 Moab is confounded; for it is broken down: howl and cry; tell ye it in Arnon, that Moab is spoiled,
21 And judgment is come upon the plain country; upon Holon, and upon Jahazah, and upon Mephaath,
22 And upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Bethdiblathaim,
23 And upon Kiriathaim, and upon Bethgamul, and upon Bethmeon,
24 And upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
25 The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, saith the Lord.
26 Make ye him drunken: for he magnified himself against the Lord: Moab also shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
27 For was not Israel a derision unto thee? was he found among thieves? for since thou spakest of him, thou skippedst for joy.
28 O ye that dwell in Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock, and be like the dove that maketh her nest in the sides of the hole's mouth.
29 We have heard the pride of Moab, (he is exceeding proud) his loftiness, and his arrogancy, and his pride, and the haughtiness of his heart.
30 I know his wrath, saith the Lord; but it shall not be so; his lies shall not so effect it.
31 Therefore will I howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; mine heart shall mourn for the men of Kirheres.
32 O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for thee with the weeping of Jazer: thy plants are gone over the sea, they reach even to the sea of Jazer: the spoiler is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.
33 And joy and gladness is taken from the plentiful field, and from the land of Moab, and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses: none shall tread with shouting; their shouting shall be no shouting.
34 From the cry of Heshbon even unto Elealeh, and even unto Jahaz, have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even unto Horonaim, as an heifer of three years old: for the waters also of Nimrim shall be desolate.
35 Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, saith the Lord, him that offereth in the high places, and him that burneth incense to his gods.
36 Therefore mine heart shall sound for Moab like pipes, and mine heart shall sound like pipes for the men of Kirheres: because the riches that he hath gotten are perished.
37 For every head shall be bald, and every beard clipped: upon all the hands shall be cuttings, and upon the loins sackcloth.
38 There shall be lamentation generally upon all the housetops of Moab, and in the streets thereof: for I have broken Moab like a vessel wherein is no pleasure, saith the Lord.
39 They shall howl, saying, How is it broken down! how hath Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all them about him.
40 For thus saith the Lord; Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread his wings over Moab.
41 Kerioth is taken, and the strong holds are surprised, and the mighty men's hearts in Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
42 And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against the Lord.
43 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, shall be upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith the Lord.
44 He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon it, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith the Lord.
45 They that fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon because of the force: but a fire shall come forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and shall devour the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
46 Woe be unto thee, O Moab! the people of Chemosh perisheth: for thy sons are taken captives, and thy daughters captives.
47 Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab in the latter days, saith the Lord. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
