25 My decision is final—your army will be crushed,and your power broken.
26 People of Moab, you claimto be stronger than I am.Now I will tell other nationsto make you drunkand to laugh while you collapsein your own vomit.
27 You made fun of my peopleand treated them like criminalscaught in the act.
28 Now you must leave your townsand live like dovesin the shelter of cliffsand canyons.
29 I know about your pride,and how you strut and boast.
30 But I also know boastingwill never save you.
31 So I will cry and mournfor Moaband its town of Kir-Heres.
