Moab Will Be Punished
15 This is the divine revelation about Moab.
In a single night Ar in Moab is laid waste and destroyed!
In a single night Kir in Moab is laid waste and destroyed!
2 The people of Dibon go to the temple,
to the worship sites, to cry.
Moab wails over Nebo and Medeba.
Every head is shaved bald, and every beard is cut off.[a]
3 In their streets they wear sackcloth.
On their roofs and in their city squares everyone wails and cries.
