• Isa 15:1-9 : 1 The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste and brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste and brought to silence. 2 He has gone up to Bajith and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall wail over Nebo and over Medeba; on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off. 3 In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth; on the tops of their houses and in their streets, everyone shall wail, weeping abundantly. 4 And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even to Jahaz; therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous to him. 5 My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee to Zoar, like a heifer of three years old: for by the ascent of Luhith with weeping shall they go up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction. 6 For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate; for the hay is withered away, the grass fails, there is no green thing. 7 Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have stored up, they shall carry away to the brook of the willows. 8 For the cry has gone around the borders of Moab; its wailing to Eglaim, and its wailing to Beerelim. 9 For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood; for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapes of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.

• Jer 48:1-49:6 : 1 Against Moab, thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Woe to Nebo, for it is ruined; Kiriathaim is confounded and captured; Misgab is confounded and dismayed. 2 There shall be no more praise of Moab. 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? 2 Therefore, behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, that I will cause the alarm of war to be heard in Rabbah of the Ammonites; and it will be a desolate heap, and her villages will be burned with fire. Then Israel will inherit those who were his heirs, says the LORD. 3 Howl, O Heshbon, for Ai is destroyed: cry out, you daughters of Rabbah, clothe yourselves with sackcloth; mourn, and run to and fro by the hedges; for their king will go into captivity, and his priests and his princes together. 4 Why do you boast in the valleys, your flowing valley, O backsliding daughter? Who trusted in her treasures, saying, Who will come against me? 5 Behold, I will bring fear upon you, says the Lord GOD of hosts, from all those who are round about you; and you will be driven out every man straight forward; and no one will gather him that wanders. 6 And afterward I will bring again the captivity of the children of Ammon, says the LORD.
• Ezek 25:1-9 : 1 The word of the LORD came again to me, saying, 2 Son of man, set your face against the Ammonites, and prophesy against them; 3 And say to the Ammonites, Hear the word of the Lord GOD; Thus says the Lord GOD; Because you said, Aha, against my sanctuary, when it was profaned; and against the land of Israel, when it was desolate; and against the house of Judah, when they went into captivity; 4 Behold, therefore I will deliver you to the men of the east for a possession, and they shall set their palaces in you, and make their dwellings in you: they shall eat your fruit, and they shall drink your milk. 5 And I will make Rabbah a stable for camels, and the Ammonites a resting place for flocks: and you shall know that I am the LORD. 6 For thus says the Lord GOD; Because you have clapped your hands, and stamped with the feet, and rejoiced in heart with all your disdain against the land of Israel; 7 Behold, therefore I will stretch out my hand upon you, and will deliver you for a spoil to the nations; and I will cut you off from the people, and I will cause you to perish out of the countries: I will destroy you; and you shall know that I am the LORD. 8 Thus says the Lord GOD; Because Moab and Seir say, Behold, the house of Judah is like all the nations; 9 Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities which are on his frontiers, the glory of the country, Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon, and Kiriathaim, 10 To the men of the east with the Ammonites, and will give them in possession, that the Ammonites may not be remembered among the nations. 11 And I will execute judgments upon Moab; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
