3 Listen to the cries for help from Horonaim:"Destruction and massive devastation!"
4 Moab is shattered;its young cry for help.
5 On the way up to Luhith,there is uncontrollable weeping.On the way down to Horonaim,they hear sobs of anguish.
6 Run for your lives!Be like Aroer in the desert.
7 Because you have reliedon your own strength and treasures,you also will be captured.Chemosh will go into exile,together with his priests and officials.
8 The destroyer will sweep through every town;no town will escape.The valleys will be ravaged;the plateaus will be destroyed,because the Lord has declared it so.
9 Give wings to Moab,and it would fly awaybecause its towns lie in ruins,with no one left in them.
