Send
ye
the
lamb
to
the
ruler
of
the
land
from
Sela
to
the
wilderness,
unto
the
mount
of
the
daughter
of
Zion.
2
For
it
shall
be,
[that],
as
a
wandering
bird
cast
out
of
the
nest,
[so]
the
daughters
of
Moab
shall
be
at
the
fords
of
Arnon.
3
Take
counsel,
execute
judgment;
make
thy
shadow
as
the
night
in
the
midst
of
the
noonday;
hide
the
outcasts;
bewray
not
him
that
wandereth.
4
Let
mine
outcasts
dwell
with
thee,
Moab;
be
thou
a
covert
to
them
from
the
face
of
the
spoiler:
for
the
extortioner
is
at
an
end,
the
spoiler
ceaseth,
the
oppressors
are
consumed
out
of
the
land.
5
And
in
mercy
shall
the
throne
be
established:
and
he
shall
sit
upon
it
in
truth
in
the
tabernacle
of
David,
judging,
and
seeking
judgment,
and
hasting
righteousness.
6
We
have
heard
of
the
pride
of
Moab;
[he
is]
very
proud:
[even]
of
his
haughtiness,
and
his
pride,
and
his
wrath:
[but]
his
lies
[shall]
not
[be]
7
Therefore
shall
Moab
howl
for
Moab,
every
one
shall
howl:
for
the
foundations
of
Kirhareseth
shall
ye
mourn;
surely
[they
are]
stricken.
8
For
the
fields
of
Heshbon
languish,
[and]
the
vine
of
Sibmah:
the
lords
of
the
heathen
have
broken
down
the
principal
plants
thereof,
they
are
come
[even]
unto
Jazer,
they
wandered
[through]
the
wilderness:
her
branches
are
stretched
out,
they
are
gone
over
the
sea.
9
Therefore
I
will
bewail
with
the
weeping
of
Jazer
the
vine
of
Sibmah:
I
will
water
thee
with
my
tears,
O
Heshbon,
and
Elealeh:
for
the
shouting
for
thy
summer
fruits
and
for
thy
harvest
is
fallen.
10
And
gladness
is
taken
away,
and
joy
out
of
the
plentiful
field;
and
in
the
vineyards
there
shall
be
no
singing,
neither
shall
there
be
shouting:
the
treaders
shall
tread
out
no
wine
in
[their]
presses;
I
have
made
[their
vintage]
shouting
to
cease.
11
Wherefore
my
bowels
shall
sound
like
an
harp
for
Moab,
and
mine
inward
parts
for
Kirharesh.
12
And
it
shall
come
to
pass,
when
it
is
seen
that
Moab
is
weary
on
the
high
place,
that
he
shall
come
to
his
sanctuary
to
pray;
but
he
shall
not
prevail.
13
This
[is]
the
word
that
the
LORD
hath
spoken
concerning
Moab
since
that
time.
14
But
now
the
LORD
hath
spoken,
saying,
Within
three
years,
as
the
years
of
an
hireling,
and
the
glory
of
Moab
shall
be
contemned,
with
all
that
great
multitude;
and
the
remnant
[shall
be]
very
small
[and]
feeble.
