Isaiah 15:8-9
English Standard Version
8 For a cry has gone
around the land of Moab;
her wailing reaches to Eglaim;
her wailing reaches to Beer-elim.
9 For the waters of (A)Dibon[a] are full of blood;
for I will bring upon Dibon even more,
(B)a lion for those of Moab who escape,
for the remnant of the land.
