3. A sound of crying will be from Horonaim:“Devastation and great destruction!”
4. “Moab is destroyed”;her little ones have caused a cry of distress to be heard;
5. for by the Ascent of Luhith they will go upwith continual weeping;for at the descent of Horonaimthey have heard a cry of destruction.
6. Flee, save your lives,and be like the juniper in the wilderness.
7. For because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures,you will also be captured;and Chemosh shall go forth into captivitytogether with his priests and his officials.
8. The destroyer will come upon every city,and no city will escape.The valley also will perish,and the plain will be destroyed,as the Lord has spoken.
9. Give wings to Moab,that she may flee and get away;for the cities will become desolate,without any to dwell in them.
