34 “Their crying can be heardfrom Heshbon to Elealeh and Jahaz.It can be heard from Zoar as far away as Horonaim and Eglath Shelishiyah.Even the waters of Nimrim are dried up.
35 I will stop Moabfrom making burnt offerings at the places of worship.I will stop them from burning incense to their gods,” says the Lord.
36 “My heart cries for Moab like a flute playing a funeral song.It cries for the people from Kir Hareseth.Their money and riches have all been taken away.
37 Everyone has a shaved head.Everyone’s beard is cut off.Everyone’s hands are cut.Everyone wears rough cloth around his waist.
38 People are crying on every roof in Moaband in every public square.There is nothing but sadnessbecause I have broken Moablike a jar no one wants,” says the Lord.
39 “Moab is shattered! The people are crying!Moab turns away in shame!People all around her make fun of her.The things that happened fill them with fear.”
40 This is what the Lord says:“Look! An eagle is diving down from the sky.It spreads its wings over Moab.
