36 Therefore My heart will wail for Moab like pipes,
    and My heart will wail like pipes for the men of Kir Hareseth,
    because the riches that they have gotten have perished.
37 For every head will be bald
    and every beard clipped;
upon all the hands will be gashes,
    and upon the loins sackcloth.
38 There will be lamentation everywhere
    upon all the housetops of Moab
    and in the streets,
for I have broken Moab
    like a vessel in which is no pleasure,
    says the Lord.

36 “So my heart laments(A) for Moab like the music of a pipe;
    it laments like a pipe for the people of Kir Hareseth.(B)
    The wealth they acquired(C) is gone.
37 Every head is shaved(D)
    and every beard(E) cut off;
every hand is slashed
    and every waist is covered with sackcloth.(F)
38 On all the roofs in Moab
    and in the public squares(G)
there is nothing but mourning,
    for I have broken Moab
    like a jar(H) that no one wants,”
declares the Lord.
