KJV

1  Send⁷⁹⁷¹ ye the lamb³⁷³³ to the ruler⁴⁹¹⁰ of the land⁷⁷⁶ from Sela^{4480 5554} to the wilderness,⁴⁰⁵⁷ unto⁴¹³ the mount²⁰²² of the daughter¹³²³ of Zion.⁶⁷²⁶

2  For it shall be,¹⁹⁶¹ that, as a wandering⁵⁰⁷⁴ bird⁵⁷⁷⁵ cast out⁷⁹⁷¹ of the nest,⁷⁰⁶⁴ so the daughters¹³²³ of Moab⁴¹²⁴ shall be¹⁹⁶¹ at the fords⁴⁵⁶⁹ of Arnon.⁷⁶⁹

3  Take⁹³⁵ counsel,⁶⁰⁹⁸ execute⁶²¹³ judgment;⁶⁴¹⁵ make⁷⁸⁹⁶ thy shadow⁶⁷³⁸ as the night³⁹¹⁵ in the midst⁸⁴³² of the noonday;⁶⁶⁷² hide⁵⁶⁴¹ the outcasts;⁵⁰⁸⁰ betray¹⁵⁴⁰ not⁴⁰⁸ him that wandereth.⁵⁰⁷⁴

4  Let mine outcasts⁵⁰⁸⁰ dwell¹⁴⁸¹ with thee, Moab;⁴¹²⁴ be¹⁹³³ thou a covert⁵⁶⁴³ to them from the face^{4480 6440} of the spoiler:⁷⁷⁰³ for³⁵⁸⁸ the extortioner⁴¹⁶⁰ is at an end,⁶⁵⁶ the spoiler⁷⁷⁰¹ ceaseth,³⁶¹⁵ the oppressors⁷⁴²⁹ are consumed⁸⁵⁵² out of⁴⁴⁸⁰ the land.⁷⁷⁶

5  And in mercy²⁶¹⁷ shall the throne³⁶⁷⁸ be established:³⁵⁵⁹ and he shall sit³⁴²⁷ upon⁵⁹²¹ it in truth⁵⁷¹ in the tabernacle¹⁶⁸ of David,¹⁷³² judging,⁸¹⁹⁹ and seeking¹⁸⁷⁵ judgment,⁴⁹⁴¹ and hasting⁴¹⁰⁶ righteousness.⁶⁶⁶⁴

6  We have heard⁸⁰⁸⁵ of the pride¹³⁴⁷ of Moab;⁴¹²⁴ he is very³⁹⁶⁶ proud:¹³⁴¹ even of his haughtiness,¹³⁴⁶ and his pride,¹³⁴⁷ and his wrath:⁵⁶⁷⁸ but his lies⁹⁰⁷ shall not³⁸⁰⁸ be so.³⁶⁵¹

7  Therefore³⁶⁵¹ shall Moab⁴¹²⁴ howl³²¹³ for Moab,⁴¹²⁴ every one³⁶⁰⁵ shall howl:³²¹³ for the foundations⁸⁰⁸ of Kir-hareseth⁷⁰²⁵ shall ye mourn;¹⁸⁹⁷ surely³⁸⁹ they are stricken.⁵²¹⁸

8  For³⁵⁸⁸ the fields⁷⁷⁰⁹ of Heshbon²⁸⁰⁹ languish,⁵³⁵ and the vine¹⁶¹² of Sibmah:⁷⁶⁴³ the lords¹¹⁶⁷ of the heathen¹⁴⁷¹ have broken down¹⁹⁸⁶ the principal plants⁸²⁹¹ thereof, they are come⁵⁰⁶⁰ even unto⁵⁷⁰⁴ Jazer,³²⁷⁰ they wandered⁸⁵⁸² through the wilderness:⁴⁰⁵⁷ her branches⁷⁹⁷⁶ are stretched out,⁵²⁰³ they are gone over⁵⁶⁷⁴ the sea.³²²⁰

9  Therefore^{5921 3651} I will bewail¹⁰⁵⁸ with the weeping¹⁰⁶⁵ of Jazer³²⁷⁰ the vine¹⁶¹² of Sibmah:⁷⁶⁴³ I will water⁷³⁰¹ thee with my tears,¹⁸³² O Heshbon,²⁸⁰⁹ and Elealeh:⁵⁰⁰ for³⁵⁸⁸ the shouting¹⁹⁵⁹ for⁵⁹²¹ thy summer fruits⁷⁰¹⁹ and for⁵⁹²¹ thy harvest⁷¹⁰⁵ is fallen.⁵³⁰⁷

10  And gladness⁸⁰⁵⁷ is taken away,⁶²² and joy¹⁵²⁴ out of⁴⁴⁸⁰ the plentiful field;³⁷⁵⁹ and in the vineyards³⁷⁵⁴ there shall be no³⁸⁰⁸ singing,⁷⁴⁴² neither³⁸⁰⁸ shall there be shouting:⁷³²¹ the treaders¹⁸⁶⁹ shall tread¹⁸⁶⁹ out no³⁸⁰⁸ wine³¹⁹⁶ in their presses;³³⁴² I have made their vintage shouting¹⁹⁵⁹ to cease.⁷⁶⁷³

11  Wherefore^{921 3651} my bowels⁴⁵⁷⁸ shall sound¹⁹⁹³ like a harp³⁶⁵⁸ for Moab,⁴¹²⁴ and mine inward parts⁷¹³⁰ for Kir-haresh.⁷⁰²⁵

12  And it shall come to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ when³⁵⁸⁸ it is seen⁷²⁰⁰ that³⁵⁸⁸ Moab⁴¹²⁴ is weary³⁸¹¹ on⁵⁹²¹ the high place,¹¹¹⁶ that he shall come⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ his sanctuary⁴⁷²⁰ to pray;⁶⁴¹⁹ but he shall not³⁸⁰⁸ prevail.³²⁰¹

13  This²⁰⁸⁸ is the word¹⁶⁹⁷ that⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath spoken¹⁶⁹⁶ concerning⁴¹³ Moab⁴¹²⁴ since that time.^{4480 227}

14  But now⁶²⁵⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath spoken,¹⁶⁹⁶ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Within three⁷⁹⁶⁹ years,⁸¹⁴¹ as the years⁸¹⁴¹ of a hireling,⁷⁹¹⁶ and the glory³⁵¹⁹ of Moab⁴¹²⁴ shall be contemned,⁷⁰³⁴ with all³⁶⁰⁵ that great⁷²²⁷ multitude;¹⁹⁹⁵ and the remnant⁷⁶⁰⁵ shall be very small^{4592 4213} and feeble.^{3808 3524}

1 ἀποστελῶ ὡς ἑρπετὰ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν μὴ πέτρα ἔρημός ἐστιν τὸ ὄρος Σιων

2 ἔσῃ γὰρ ὡς πετεινοῦ ἀνιπταμένου νεοσσὸς ἀφῃρημένος θύγατερ Μωαβ ἔπειτα δέ Αρνων

3 πλείονα βουλεύου ποιεῖτε σκέπην πένθους αὐτῇ διὰ παντός ἐν μεσημβρινῇ σκοτίᾳ φεύγουσιν ἐξέστησαν μὴ ἀπαχθῇς

4 παροικήσουσίν σοι οἱ φυγάδες Μωαβ ἔσονται σκέπη ὑμῖν ἀπὸ προσώπου διώκοντος ὅτι ἤρθη ἡ συμμαχία σου καὶ ὁ ἄρχων ἀπώλετο ὁ καταπατῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς

5 καὶ διορθωθήσεται μετ᾽ ἐλέους θρόνος καὶ καθίεται ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῦ μετὰ ἀληθείας ἐν σκηνῇ Δαυιδ κρίνων καὶ ἐκζητῶν κρίμα καὶ σπεύδων δικαιοσύνην

6 ἠκούσαμεν τὴν ὕβριν Μωαβ ὑβριστὴς σφόδρα τὴν ὑπερηφανίαν ἐξῆρας οὐχ οὕτως ἡ μαντεία σου

7 οὐχ οὕτως ὀλολύξει Μωαβ ἐν γὰρ τῇ Μωαβίτιδι πάντες ὀλολύξουσιν τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν Δεσεθ μελετήσεις καὶ οὐκ ἐντραπήσῃ

8 τὰ πεδία Εσεβων πενθήσει ἄμπελος Σεβαμα καταπίνοντες τὰ ἔθνη καταπατήσατε τὰς ἀμπέλους αὐτῆς ἕως Ιαζηρ οὐ μὴ συνάψητε πλανήθητε τὴν ἔρημον οἱ ἀπεσταλμένοι ἐγκατελείφθησαν διέβησαν γὰρ τὴν ἔρημον

9 διὰ τοῦτο κλαύσομαι ὡς τὸν κλαυθμὸν Ιαζηρ ἄμπελον Σεβαμα τὰ δένδρα σου κατέβαλεν Εσεβων καὶ Ελεαλη ὅτι ἐπὶ τῷ θερισμῷ καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ τρυγήτῳ σου καταπατήσω καὶ πάντα πεσοῦνται

10 καὶ ἀρθήσεται εὐφροσύνη καὶ ἀγαλλίαμα ἐκ τῶν ἀμπελώνων σου καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἀμπελῶσίν σου οὐ μὴ εὐφρανθήσονται καὶ οὐ μὴ πατήσουσιν οἶνον εἰς τὰ ὑπολήνια πέπαυται γάρ

11 διὰ τοῦτο ἡ κοιλία μου ἐπὶ Μωαβ ὡς κιθάρα ἠχήσει καὶ τὰ ἐντός μου ὡσεὶ τεῖχος ὃ ἐνεκαίνισας

12 καὶ ἔσται εἰς τὸ ἐντραπῆναί σε ὅτι ἐκοπίασεν Μωαβ ἐπὶ τοῖς βωμοῖς καὶ εἰσελεύσεται εἰς τὰ χειροποίητα αὐτῆς ὥστε προσεύξασθαι καὶ οὐ μὴ δύνηται ἐξελέσθαι αὐτόν

13 τοῦτο τὸ ῥῆμα ὃ ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐπὶ Μωαβ ὁπότε καὶ ἐλάλησεν

14 καὶ νῦν λέγω ἐν τρισὶν ἔτεσιν ἐτῶν μισθωτοῦ ἀτιμασθήσεται ἡ δόξα Μωαβ ἐν παντὶ τῷ πλούτῳ τῷ πολλῷ καὶ καταλειφθήσεται ὀλιγοστὸς καὶ οὐκ ἔντιμος

1 [Emitte agnum, Domine, dominatorem terræ,
de petra deserti
ad montem filiæ Sion.

2 Et erit: sicut avis fugiens,
et pulli de nido avolantes,
sic erunt filiæ Moab
in transcensu Arnon.

3 Ini consilium,
coge concilium;
pone quasi noctem umbram tuam
in meridie;
absconde fugientes, et vagos ne prodas.

4 Habitabunt apud te profugi mei;
Moab, esto latibulum eorum a facie vastatoris:
finitus est enim pulvis, consummatus est miser,
defecit qui conculcabat terram.

5 Et præparabitur in misericordia solium,
et sedebit super illud in veritate
in tabernaculo David,
judicans et quærens judicium,
et velociter reddens quod justum est.

6 Audivimus superbiam Moab:
superbus est valde;
superbia ejus, et arrogantia ejus, et indignatio ejus
plus quam fortitudo ejus.

7 Idcirco ululabit Moab ad Moab;
universus ululabit:
his qui lætantur super muros cocti lateris,
loquimini plagas suas.

8 Quoniam suburbana Hesebon deserta sunt,
et vineam Sabama
domini gentium exciderunt:
flagella ejus usque ad Jazer pervenerunt,
erraverunt in deserto;
propagines ejus relictæ sunt,
transierunt mare.

9 Super hoc plorabo in fletu Jazer
vineam Sabama;
inebriabo de lacrima mea,
Hesebon et Eleale,
quoniam super vindemiam tuam et super messem tuam
vox calcantium irruit.

10 Et auferetur lætitia et exsultatio de Carmelo,
et in vineis non exsultabit neque jubilabit.
Vinum in torculari non calcabit qui calcare consueverat;
vocem calcantium abstuli.

11 Super hoc venter meus ad Moab
quasi cithara sonabit,
et viscera mea ad murum cocti lateris.

12 Et erit: cum apparuerit quod laboravit Moab
super excelsis suis,
ingredietur ad sancta sua ut obsecret,
et non valebit.]

13 Hoc verbum quod locutus est Dominus ad Moab ex tunc.

14 Et nunc locutus est Dominus, dicens: In tribus annis, quasi anni mercenarii, auferetur gloria Moab super omni populo multo, et relinquetur parvus et modicus, nequaquam multus.
