³⁰ “But we have overthrown them;
    Heshbon’s dominion has been destroyed all the way to Dibon.^(A)
We have demolished them as far as Nophah,
    which extends to Medeba.^(B)”

⁴ Heshbon^(A) and Elealeh^(B) cry out,
    their voices are heard all the way to Jahaz.^(C)
Therefore the armed men of Moab cry out,
    and their hearts are faint.

⁸ The fields of Heshbon^(A) wither,^(B)
    the vines of Sibmah^(C) also.
The rulers of the nations
    have trampled down the choicest vines,^(D)
which once reached Jazer^(E)
    and spread toward the desert.
Their shoots spread out^(F)
    and went as far as the sea.^[a](G)

² Moab will be praised^(A) no more;
    in Heshbon^[a](B) people will plot her downfall:
    ‘Come, let us put an end to that nation.’^(C)
You, the people of Madmen,^[b] will also be silenced;
    the sword will pursue you.
