2 Thus says the Lord:
For three transgressions of Moab,
    and for four, I will not revoke the punishment;^[a]
because he burned to lime
    the bones of the king of Edom.
² So I will send a fire on Moab,
    and it shall devour the strongholds of Kerioth,
and Moab shall die amid uproar,
    amid shouting and the sound of the trumpet;
