Isaiah 15:8-9
Easy-to-Read Version

8 You can hear crying everywhere in Moab—
    as far away as Eglaim and Beer Elim.
9 The water of Dimon[a] is full of blood,
    and I will bring even more troubles to Dimon.
A few people living in Moab have escaped the enemy,
    but I will send lions to eat them.
