In Heshbon they have devised evil against it: 'Come, and let us cut it off from being a nation.' You too shall be cut down, O Madmen; the sword shall pursue you. 3 A voice of crying shall be heard from Horonaim, plundering and great destruction. 4 Moab is destroyed; her little ones have set up a cry. 5 For on the ascent of Luhith they will go up with continual weeping; for on the descent of Horonaim, the enemies have heard a cry of destruction. 6 Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness. 7 Because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you shall also be taken; and Chemosh shall go into captivity with his priests and his princes together. 8 And the spoiler shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed, as the LORD has spoken. 9 Give wings to Moab, that it may flee and get away; for its cities shall be desolate, without any to dwell in them. 10 Cursed be he who does the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed be he who keeps back his sword from blood. 11 Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his lees, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, nor has he gone into captivity; therefore his taste remained in him, and his scent is unchanged. 12 Therefore behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will send to him wanderers, who shall cause him to wander, and shall empty his vessels and break their bottles. 13 And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel their confidence. 14 How do you say, 'We are mighty and strong men for the war'? 15 Moab is plundered, and gone up out of her cities, and his chosen young men have gone down to the slaughter, says the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts. 16 The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hastens quickly. 17 All you who are around him, bemoan him; and all you who know his name say, 'How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod!' 18 You daughter who inhabits Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon you, and he shall destroy your strongholds. 19 O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way and watch; ask him who flees and her who escapes, 'What has happened?' 20 Moab is confounded, for it is broken down. Howl and cry; tell it in Arnon, that Moab is plundered. 21 Judgment has come upon the plain country: upon Holon, Jahazah, and Mephaath, 22 And upon Dibon, Nebo, and Bethdiblathaim, 23 And upon Kiriathaim, Bethgamul, and Bethmeon, 24 And upon Kerioth, Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near. 25 The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, says the LORD. 26 Make him drunk, for he magnified himself against the LORD. Moab also shall wallow in his vomit, and also he shall be in derision. 27 For was not Israel a derision to you? Was he found among thieves? For whenever you spoke of him, you skipped for joy. 28 You who dwell in Moab, leave the cities and dwell in the rock, and be like the dove that makes her nest in the sides of the holes' mouth. 29 We have heard the pride of Moab (he is exceedingly proud), his loftiness, and his arrogance, and his pride, and the haughtiness of his heart. 30 I know his wrath, says the LORD, but it shall not be so; his lies shall not so effect it. 31 Therefore I will howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; my heart shall mourn for the men of Kirheres. 32 O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for you with the weeping of Jazer; your plants are gone over the sea, they reach to the sea of Jazer; the spoiler has fallen upon your summer fruits and upon your vintage. 33 Joy and gladness are taken from the plentiful field and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses; none shall tread with shouting; their shouting shall be no shouting. 34 From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh and to Jahaz they have uttered their voice, from Zoar to Horonaim, as an heifer of three years old; for the waters also of Nimrim shall be desolate. 35 Moreover, I will cause to cease in Moab, says the LORD, him who offers in the high places, and him who burns incense to his gods. 36 Therefore my heart shall sound for Moab like pipes, and my heart shall sound like pipes for the men of Kirheres, because the riches he has acquired are perished. 37 For every head shall be bald and every beard clipped; upon all the hands shall be cuttings, and upon the loins sackcloth. 38 There shall be lamentation generally upon all the housetops of Moab and in its streets, for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which is no pleasure, says the LORD. 39 They shall howl, saying, 'How it is broken down! How has Moab turned his back with shame!' So Moab shall be a derision and a dismaying to all those around him. 40 For thus says the LORD: Behold, he shall fly like an eagle and shall spread his wings over Moab. 41 Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are surprised, and the mighty men's hearts in Moab in that day shall be like the heart of a woman in her pangs. 42 And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against the LORD. 43 Fear, the pit, and the snare shall be upon you, O inhabitant of Moab, says the LORD. 44 He who flees from the fear shall fall into the pit, and he who gets out of the pit shall be taken in the snare; for I will bring upon it, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, says the LORD. 45 Those who fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon because of the force; but a fire shall come out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and shall devour the corner of Moab and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones. 46 Woe to you, O Moab! The people of Chemosh perish, for your sons are taken captive and your daughters captive. 47 Yet I will bring back the captivity of Moab in the latter days, says the LORD. Thus far is the judgment of Moab. 1 Concerning the Ammonites, thus says the LORD: Does Israel have no sons? Does he have no heir? Why then does their king inherit Gad, and his people dwell in its cities?
  • Zeph 3:19-20 : 19 Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict you: and I will save her who is lame, and gather her who was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame. 20 At that time I will bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, says the LORD.
  • Zech 1:15 : 15 And I am very displeased with the nations at ease; for I was a little angry, and they helped forward the affliction.
  • Zech 10:6-9 : 6 And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph. I will bring them back, for I have mercy on them, and they shall be as though I had not cast them off. For I am the LORD their God, and will hear them. 7 And those of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as with wine. Yes, their children shall see it and be glad; their heart shall rejoice in the LORD. 8 I will signal for them and gather them, for I have redeemed them. And they shall increase as they have increased. 9 And I will sow them among the people, and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children and turn again. 10 I will bring them back out of the land of Egypt and gather them out of Assyria, and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon, until no place can be found for them. 11 And he shall pass through the sea with affliction, and strike the waves in the sea, and all the deeps of the river shall dry up. And the pride of Assyria shall be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt shall depart. 12 And I will strengthen them in the LORD, and they shall walk in his name, says the LORD.
  • Zech 12:2-4 : 2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling for all the people around about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. 3 And in that day I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all who burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it. 4 In that day, says the LORD, I will strike every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open my eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the people with blindness.
