| |
| | Isa 15:2 | Dibon goes up to its temple, to its high places to weep; Moab wails over Nebo and Medeba. Every head is shaved and every beard cut off.

| | Isa 15:3 | In the streets they wear sackcloth; on the roofs and in the public squares they all wail, prostrate with weeping.
| |
| | Isa 15:4 | Heshbon and Elealeh cry out, their voices are heard all the way to Jahaz. Therefore the armed men of Moab cry out, and their hearts are faint.
| |
| | Isa 15:5 | My heart cries out over Moab; her fugitives flee as far as Zoar, as far as Eglath Shelishiyah. They go up the way to Luhith, weeping as they go; on the road to Horonaim they lament their destruction.
| |
| | Isa 15:6 | The waters of Nimrim are dried up and the grass is withered; the vegetation is gone and nothing green is left.
| |
| | Isa 15:7 | So the wealth they have acquired and stored up they carry away over the Ravine of the Poplars.

| |
| | Isa 15:9 | Dimon's waters are full of blood, but I will bring still more upon Dimon -- a lion upon the fugitives of Moab and upon those who remain in the land.
