14 Therefore you shall give parting gifts
to Mo′resheth-gath;
the houses of Achzib shall be a deceitful thing
to the kings of Israel.
15 I will again bring a conqueror upon you,
inhabitants of Mare′shah;
the glory of Israel

for the children of your delight;
make yourselves as bald as the eagle,
for they shall go from you into exile.
