Isaiah 15:7-9
Holman Christian Standard Bible
7 So they carry their wealth and belongings
over the Wadi of the Willows.(A)
8 For their cry echoes
throughout the territory of Moab.
Their wailing reaches Eglaim;
their wailing reaches Beer-elim.
9 The waters of Dibon[a] are full of blood,(B)
but I will bring on Dibon[b] even more than this—
a lion for those who escape from Moab,
and for the survivors in the land.(C)

New International Version
7 So the wealth they have acquired(A) and stored up
they carry away over the Ravine of the Poplars.
8 Their outcry echoes along the border of Moab;
their wailing reaches as far as Eglaim,
their lamentation as far as Beer(B) Elim.
9 The waters of Dimon[a] are full of blood,
but I will bring still more upon Dimon[b]—
a lion(C) upon the fugitives of Moab(D)
and upon those who remain in the land.
