Isaiah 15:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 Therefore they carry the abundance it has made
and their store of goods over the river of the poplars.
8 For a cry for help has encircled the territory of Moab,
her wailing is heard as far as Eglaim,
and her wailing as far as Beer Elim.
9 For the waters of Dimon[a] are full of blood;
but I will place added things upon Dimon:
a lion for the survivors[b] of Moab
and for the remnant of the land.

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.
