31 Therefore over Moab I wail, and for all of Moab I cry out, for the people of Kir-heres I moan.
32 More than the weeping of Jazer I weep for you, O vine Sibmah. Your branches cross over the sea, up to the sea of Jazer they reach. Upon your summer fruit and upon your vintage the destroyer has fallen.
33 And joy and rejoicing have been taken away from the fruitful land, even from the land of Moab. And the wine from the wine presses I have caused to disappear. He will not tread with exuberant shouts. Exuberant shouts will not be exuberant shouts.
34 From the cry for help of Heshbon, up to Elealeh, up to Jahaz, they give their voice, from Zoar up to Horonaim, up to Eglath-shelishiyah, for even the waters of Nimrim have become as a desolation.
35 And I will cause to disappear for Moab,” declares Yahweh, “the one who presents a sacrifice at a high place, and the one who burns a smoke offering to his gods.
36 Therefore my heart moans for Moab like the flute. It moans for the people of Kir-heres like the flute. Therefore the wealth they gained has perished.
37 For on every head is baldness, and every beard is trimmed. On all the hands, slashes, and on the loins, sackcloth.
