Thus says Yahweh,

“For three transgressions of (A)Moab and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because he (B)burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime.
So I will send fire upon Moab,
And it will consume the citadels of (C)Kerioth;
And Moab will die amid great (D)rumbling,
Amid a loud shout and the sound of a trumpet.

This is what the Lord says:

“For three sins of Moab,(A)
    even for four, I will not relent.
Because he burned to ashes(B)
    the bones of Edom’s king,
I will send fire on Moab
    that will consume the fortresses of Kerioth.[a](C)
Moab will go down in great tumult
    amid war cries(D) and the blast of the trumpet.(E)
