1To Moab: This is what the LORD of the Heavenly Armies, the God of Israel, says: "How terrible for Nebo, for it's laid waste. Kiriathaim is put to shame, it's captured. The fortress is put to shame, it's shattered.1לְמוֹאָ֡ב כֹּֽה־ אָמַר֩ יְהוָ֨ה צְבָא֜וֹת אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל ה֤וֹי אֶל־ נְבוֹ֙ כִּ֣י שֻׁדָּ֔דָה הֹבִ֥ישָׁה נִלְכְּדָ֖ה קִרְיָתָ֑יִם הֹבִ֥ישָׁה הַמִּשְׂגָּ֖ב וָחָֽתָּה׃
2The pride of Moab is no more. In Heshbon they plotted evil against her: 'Come and let's eliminate her as a nation.' Madmen will also be silenced, and the sword will pursue you.2אֵ֣ין עוֹד֮ תְּהִלַּ֣ת מוֹאָב֒ בְּחֶשְׁבּ֗וֹן חָשְׁב֤וּ עָלֶ֙יהָ֙ רָעָ֔ה לְכ֖וּ וְנַכְרִיתֶ֣נָּה מִגּ֑וֹי גַּם־ מַדְמֵ֣ן תִּדֹּ֔מִּי אַחֲרַ֖יִךְ תֵּ֥לֶךְ חָֽרֶב׃
3The sound of crying will come from Horonaim, devastation and great destruction.3ק֥וֹל צְעָקָ֖ה מֵחֹֽרוֹנָ֑יִם שֹׁ֖ד וָשֶׁ֥בֶר גָּדֽוֹל׃
4Moab will be destroyed; her little ones will cry out.4נִשְׁבְּרָ֖ה מוֹאָ֑ב הִשְׁמִ֥יעוּ זְּעָקָ֖ה [צעוריה] (צְעִירֶֽיהָ׃)
5Indeed, at the ascent of Luhith people will go up with bitter weeping. At the descent of Horonaim the anguished cries over the destruction will be heard.5כִּ֚י מַעֲלֵ֣ה [הלחות] (הַלּוּחִ֔ית‪‬) בִּבְכִ֖י יַֽעֲלֶה־ בֶּ֑כִי כִּ֚י בְּמוֹרַ֣ד חוֹרֹנַ֔יִם צָרֵ֥י צַֽעֲקַת־ שֶׁ֖בֶר שָׁמֵֽעוּ׃
6Flee, save your lives, and you will be like a wild donkey in the desert.6נֻ֖סוּ מַלְּט֣וּ נַפְשְׁכֶ֑ם וְתִֽהְיֶ֕ינָה כַּעֲרוֹעֵ֖ר בַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃
7But, because you trust in your deeds and your riches, you will also be captured. Chemosh will go out into exile, along with his priests and officials.7כִּ֠י יַ֣עַן בִּטְחֵ֤ךְ בְּמַעֲשַׂ֙יִךְ֙ וּבְא֣וֹצְרוֹתַ֔יִךְ גַּם־ אַ֖תְּ תִּלָּכֵ֑דִי וְיָצָ֤א [כמיש] (כְמוֹשׁ֙) בַּגּוֹלָ֔ה כֹּהֲנָ֥יו וְשָׂרָ֖יו [יחד] (יַחְדָּֽיו׃)
8A destroyer will come to every town and no town will escape. The valley will be ruined and the plateau destroyed." This is what the LORD has said!8וְיָבֹ֨א שֹׁדֵ֜ד אֶל־ כָּל־ עִ֗יר וְעִיר֙ לֹ֣א תִמָּלֵ֔ט וְאָבַ֥ד הָעֵ֖מֶק וְנִשְׁמַ֣ד הַמִּישֹׁ֑ר אֲשֶׁ֖ר אָמַ֥ר יְהוָֽה׃
9"Put salt on Moab for she will surely fall. Her towns will become desolate places, without any inhabitants in them.9תְּנוּ־ צִ֣יץ לְמוֹאָ֔ב כִּ֥י נָצֹ֖א תֵּצֵ֑א וְעָרֶ֙יהָ֙ לְשַׁמָּ֣ה תִֽהְיֶ֔ינָה מֵאֵ֥ין יוֹשֵׁ֖ב בָּהֵֽן׃
10Cursed is the one who is slack in doing the LORD's work. Cursed is the one who holds back his sword from shedding blood.10אָר֗וּר עֹשֶׂ֛ה מְלֶ֥אכֶת יְהוָ֖ה רְמִיָּ֑ה וְאָר֕וּר מֹנֵ֥עַ חַרְבּ֖וֹ מִדָּֽם׃
11Moab has been at ease from his youth. He has been undisturbed like wine on its dregs and not poured from vessel to vessel. He has not gone into exile. Therefore, his flavor has remained, and his aroma has not changed.11שַׁאֲנַ֨ן מוֹאָ֜ב מִנְּעוּרָ֗יו וְשֹׁקֵ֥ט הוּא֙ אֶל־ שְׁמָרָ֔יו וְלֹֽא־ הוּרַ֤ק מִכְּלִי֙ אֶל־ כֶּ֔לִי וּבַגּוֹלָ֖ה לֹ֣א הָלָ֑ךְ עַל־ כֵּ֗ן עָמַ֤ד טַעְמוֹ֙ בּ֔וֹ וְרֵיח֖וֹ לֹ֥א נָמָֽר׃ ס
12"Therefore, look, days are coming," declares the LORD, "when I'll send those who tip over vessels to him, and they'll tip him over. They'll empty his vessels and shatter his jars. 12לָכֵ֞ן הִנֵּ֖ה־ יָמִ֤ים בָּאִים֙ נְאֻם־ יְהוָ֔ה וְשִׁלַּחְתִּי־ ל֥וֹ צֹעִ֖ים וְצֵעֻ֑הוּ וְכֵלָ֣יו יָרִ֔יקוּ וְנִבְלֵיהֶ֖ם יְנַפֵּֽצוּ׃
13Moab will be ashamed because of Chemosh just as the house of Israel was ashamed because of Bethel, their confidence.13וּבֹ֥שׁ מוֹאָ֖ב מִכְּמ֑וֹשׁ כַּאֲשֶׁר־ בֹּ֙שׁוּ֙ בֵּ֣ית יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל מִבֵּ֥ית אֵ֖ל מִבְטֶחָֽם׃
14"How can you say, 'We're strong warriors, and soldiers ready for battle'?14אֵ֚יךְ תֹּֽאמְר֔וּ גִּבּוֹרִ֖ים אֲנָ֑חְנוּ וְאַנְשֵׁי־ חַ֖יִל לַמִּלְחָמָֽה׃
15Moab will be destroyed, and the enemy will come up against her cities. Her finest young men will go down to slaughter," declares the King, whose name is the LORD of the Heavenly Armies.15שֻׁדַּ֤ד מוֹאָב֙ וְעָרֶ֣יהָ עָלָ֔ה וּמִבְחַ֥ר בַּֽחוּרָ֖יו יָרְד֣וּ לַטָּ֑בַח נְאֻ֨ם־ הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ יְהוָ֥ה צְבָא֖וֹת שְׁמֽוֹ׃
16"Moab's disaster is near at hand, and his calamity is coming very quickly.16קָר֥וֹב אֵיד־ מוֹאָ֖ב לָב֑וֹא וְרָ֣עָת֔וֹ מִהֲרָ֖ה מְאֹֽד׃
17Mourn for him, all who live around him, and all who know his name. Say, 'Oh how the mighty rod is broken, the glorious staff.'17נֻ֤דוּ לוֹ֙ כָּל־ סְבִיבָ֔יו וְכֹ֖ל יֹדְעֵ֣י שְׁמ֑וֹ אִמְר֗וּ אֵיכָ֤ה נִשְׁבַּר֙ מַטֵּה־ עֹ֔ז מַקֵּ֖ל תִּפְאָרָֽה׃
18"Come down from glory, and sit on parched ground, O woman who lives in Dibon, for the destroyer of Moab will come up against you to destroy you. He will destroy your strongholds.18רְדִ֤י מִכָּבוֹד֙ [ישבי] (וּשְׁבִ֣י) בַצָּמָ֔א יֹשֶׁ֖בֶת בַּת־ דִּיב֑וֹן כִּֽי־ שֹׁדֵ֤ד מוֹאָב֙ עָ֣לָה בָ֔ךְ שִׁחֵ֖ת מִבְצָרָֽיִךְ׃
19Stand by the road and keep watch, O woman who lives in Aroer. Ask the man who flees and the woman who escapes. Say, 'What happened'?19אֶל־ דֶּ֛רֶךְ עִמְדִ֥י וְצַפִּ֖י יוֹשֶׁ֣בֶת עֲרוֹעֵ֑ר שַׁאֲלִי־ נָ֣ס וְנִמְלָ֔טָה אִמְרִ֖י מַה־ נִּֽהְיָֽתָה׃
20Moab will be put to shame, for it will be destroyed. Wail and cry out. Announce by the Arnon that Moab is destroyed.20הֹבִ֥ישׁ מוֹאָ֛ב כִּֽי־ חַ֖תָּה [הילילי] (הֵילִ֣ילוּ ׀) [וזעקי] (וּֽזְעָ֑קוּ) הַגִּ֣ידוּ בְאַרְנ֔וֹן כִּ֥י שֻׁדַּ֖ד מוֹאָֽב׃
21Judgment has come to the plateau: to Holon and Jahzah, and against Mephaath,21וּמִשְׁפָּ֥ט בָּ֖א אֶל־ אֶ֣רֶץ הַמִּישֹׁ֑ר אֶל־ חֹל֥וֹן וְאֶל־ יַ֖הְצָה וְעַל־ [מופעת] (מֵיפָֽעַת׃)
22Dibon, Nebo, and Beth-diblathaim,22וְעַל־ דִּיב֣וֹן וְעַל־ נְב֔וֹ וְעַל־ בֵּ֖ית דִּבְלָתָֽיִם׃
23against Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, and Beth-meon,23וְעַ֧ל קִרְיָתַ֛יִם וְעַל־ בֵּ֥ית גָּמ֖וּל וְעַל־ בֵּ֥ית מְעֽוֹן׃
24against Kerioth, Bozrah, and all the towns in the land of Moab, both far and near.24וְעַל־ קְרִיּ֖וֹת וְעַל־ בָּצְרָ֑ה וְעַ֗ל כָּל־ עָרֵי֙ אֶ֣רֶץ מוֹאָ֔ב הָרְחֹק֖וֹת וְהַקְּרֹבֽוֹת׃
25The strength of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken," declares the LORD.25נִגְדְּעָה֙ קֶ֣רֶן מוֹאָ֔ב וּזְרֹע֖וֹ נִשְׁבָּ֑רָה נְאֻ֖ם יְהוָֽה׃
26"Make him drunk for he has exalted himself against the LORD. Moab will wallow in his vomit, and he will be the object of mocking.26הַשְׁכִּירֻ֕הוּ כִּ֥י עַל־ יְהוָ֖ה הִגְדִּ֑יל וְסָפַ֤ק מוֹאָב֙ בְּקִיא֔וֹ וְהָיָ֥ה לִשְׂחֹ֖ק גַּם־ הֽוּא׃
27Wasn't Israel an object of mocking for you? Wasn't he treated like a thief, so that whenever you spoke about him you shook your head in contempt? 27וְאִ֣ם ׀ ל֣וֹא הַשְּׂחֹ֗ק הָיָ֤ה לְךָ֙ יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל אִם־ בְּגַנָּבִ֖ים [נמצאה] (נִמְצָ֑א) כִּֽי־ מִדֵּ֧י דְבָרֶ֥יךָ בּ֖וֹ תִּתְנוֹדָֽד׃
28Abandon the cities, and live on the cliffs, you inhabitants of Moab. Be like a dove that builds a nest by the mouth of a cave.28עִזְב֤וּ עָרִים֙ וְשִׁכְנ֣וּ בַּסֶּ֔לַע יֹשְׁבֵ֖י מוֹאָ֑ב וִֽהְי֣וּ כְיוֹנָ֔ה תְּקַנֵּ֖ן בְּעֶבְרֵ֥י פִי־ פָֽחַת׃
29We have heard about Moab's pride— he's very proud— his haughtiness, his arrogance, his insolence, and his conceit. 29שָׁמַ֥עְנוּ גְאוֹן־ מוֹאָ֖ב גֵּאֶ֣ה מְאֹ֑ד גָּבְה֧וֹ וּגְאוֹנ֛וֹ וְגַאֲוָת֖וֹ וְרֻ֥ם לִבּֽוֹ׃
30I know his gall," declares the LORD, "and it's futile; the boasting that they do is futile.30אֲנִ֤י יָדַ֙עְתִּי֙ נְאֻם־ יְהוָ֔ה עֶבְרָת֖וֹ וְלֹא־ כֵ֑ן בַּדָּ֖יו לֹא־ כֵ֥ן עָשֽׂוּ׃
31Therefore, I'll wail for Moab, and for the whole of Moab I'll cry out, for the men of Kir-heres I'll moan.31עַל־ כֵּן֙ עַל־ מוֹאָ֣ב אֲיֵלִ֔יל וּלְמוֹאָ֥ב כֻּלֹּ֖ה אֶזְעָ֑ק אֶל־ אַנְשֵׁ֥י קִֽיר־ חֶ֖רֶשׂ יֶהְגֶּֽה׃
32More than the weeping for Jazer, I'll weep for you, vine of Sibmah. Your branches spread out to the sea, and reached as far as the Sea of Jazer. On your summer fruit and grapes the destroyer will fall.32מִבְּכִ֨י יַעְזֵ֤ר אֶבְכֶּה־ לָּךְ֙ הַגֶּ֣פֶן שִׂבְמָ֔ה נְטִֽישֹׁתַ֙יִךְ֙ עָ֣בְרוּ יָ֔ם עַ֛ד יָ֥ם יַעְזֵ֖ר נָגָ֑עוּ עַל־ קֵיצֵ֥ךְ וְעַל־ בְּצִירֵ֖ךְ שֹׁדֵ֥ד נָפָֽל׃
33Gladness and rejoicing will be taken away from the fruitful land. From the land of Moab I'll cause the wine in the wine presses to stop flowing. The workers won't tread the grapes with a loud shout. There will be no shout!33וְנֶאֶסְפָ֨ה שִׂמְחָ֥ה וָגִ֛יל מִכַּרְמֶ֖ל וּמֵאֶ֣רֶץ מוֹאָ֑ב וְיַ֙יִן֙ מִיקָבִ֣ים הִשְׁבַּ֔תִּי לֹֽא־ יִדְרֹ֣ךְ הֵידָ֔ד הֵידָ֖ד לֹ֥א הֵידָֽד׃
34"From the cry of Heshbon, to Elealeh, to Jahaz they have lifted up their voice. From Zoar to Horonaim and to Eglath-shelishiyah, even the waters of Nimrim will become a desolate place. 34מִזַּעֲקַ֨ת חֶשְׁבּ֜וֹן עַד־ אֶלְעָלֵ֗ה עַד־ יַ֙הַץ֙ נָתְנ֣וּ קוֹלָ֔ם מִצֹּ֙עַר֙ עַד־ חֹ֣רֹנַ֔יִם עֶגְלַ֖ת שְׁלִֽשִׁיָּ֑ה כִּ֚י גַּם־ מֵ֣י נִמְרִ֔ים לִמְשַׁמּ֖וֹת יִהְיֽוּ׃
35In Moab," declares the LORD, "I'll put an end to the one who offers a burnt offering on the high place and to the one who burns incense to his gods. 35וְהִשְׁבַּתִּ֥י לְמוֹאָ֖ב נְאֻם־ יְהוָ֑ה מַעֲלֶ֣ה בָמָ֔ה וּמַקְטִ֖יר לֵאלֹהָֽיו׃
36Therefore my heart wails for Moab like flutes and my heart wails for the men of Kir-heres like flutes. Therefore they'll lose the abundance they produced. 36עַל־ כֵּ֞ן לִבִּ֤י לְמוֹאָב֙ כַּחֲלִלִ֣ים יֶהֱמֶ֔ה וְלִבִּי֙ אֶל־ אַנְשֵׁ֣י קִֽיר־ חֶ֔רֶשׂ כַּחֲלִילִ֖ים יֶהֱמֶ֑ה עַל־ כֵּ֛ן יִתְרַ֥ת עָשָׂ֖ה אָבָֽדוּ׃
37Indeed every head will be bald and every beard cut short. There will be gashes on all the hands and sackcloth on the loins. 37כִּ֤י כָל־ רֹאשׁ֙ קָרְחָ֔ה וְכָל־ זָקָ֖ן גְּרֻעָ֑ה עַ֤ל כָּל־ יָדַ֙יִם֙ גְּדֻדֹ֔ת וְעַל־ מָתְנַ֖יִם שָֽׂק׃
38On all the housetops of Moab and in the streets there will be nothing but mourning, for I'll break Moab like a vessel that no one wants," declares the LORD. 38עַ֣ל כָּל־ גַּגּ֥וֹת מוֹאָ֛ב וּבִרְחֹבֹתֶ֖יהָ כֻּלֹּ֣ה מִסְפֵּ֑ד כִּֽי־ שָׁבַ֣רְתִּי אֶת־ מוֹאָ֗ב כִּכְלִ֛י אֵֽין־ חֵ֥פֶץ בּ֖וֹ נְאֻם־ יְהוָֽה׃
39"How it will be shattered! How they'll wail! How Moab will turn his back in shame! Moab will be an object of ridicule and terror to all those around him."39אֵ֥יךְ חַ֙תָּה֙ הֵילִ֔ילוּ אֵ֛יךְ הִפְנָה־ עֹ֥רֶף מוֹאָ֖ב בּ֑וֹשׁ וְהָיָ֥ה מוֹאָ֛ב לִשְׂחֹ֥ק וְלִמְחִתָּ֖ה לְכָל־ סְבִיבָֽיו׃ ס
40For this is what the LORD says: "Look, like an eagle one will fly swiftly and spread his wings against Moab.40כִּי־ כֹה֙ אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה הִנֵּ֥ה כַנֶּ֖שֶׁר יִדְאֶ֑ה וּפָרַ֥שׂ כְּנָפָ֖יו אֶל־ מוֹאָֽב׃
41The towns will be captured and the strongholds seized. On that day the hearts of the warriors of Moab will be like the heart of a woman in labor.41נִלְכְּדָה֙ הַקְּרִיּ֔וֹת וְהַמְּצָד֖וֹת נִתְפָּ֑שָׂה וְֽ֠הָיָה לֵ֞ב גִּבּוֹרֵ֤י מוֹאָב֙ בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֔וּא כְּלֵ֖ב אִשָּׁ֥ה מְצֵרָֽה׃
42Moab will be destroyed as a nation because he exalted himself against the LORD.42וְנִשְׁמַ֥ד מוֹאָ֖ב מֵעָ֑ם כִּ֥י עַל־ יְהוָ֖ה הִגְדִּֽיל׃
43Terror, pit, and trap will be used against you who live in Moab," declares the LORD.43פַּ֥חַד וָפַ֖חַת וָפָ֑ח עָלֶ֛יךָ יוֹשֵׁ֥ב מוֹאָ֖ב נְאֻם־ יְהוָֽה׃
44"The one who flees from the terror will fall into a pit. And the one who comes up out of the pit will be caught in a trap. For I'll bring upon her, that is upon Moab, the time of her punishment," declares the LORD.44[הניס] (הַנָּ֞ס) מִפְּנֵ֤י הַפַּ֙חַד֙ יִפֹּ֣ל אֶל־ הַפַּ֔חַת וְהָֽעֹלֶה֙ מִן־ הַפַּ֔חַת יִלָּכֵ֖ד בַּפָּ֑ח כִּֽי־ אָבִ֨יא אֵלֶ֧יהָ אֶל־ מוֹאָ֛ב שְׁנַ֥ת פְּקֻדָּתָ֖ם נְאֻם־ יְהוָֽה׃
45"The fugitives will stand without strength in the shadow of Heshbon, for fire will go out from Heshbon and a flame from the middle of Sihon. It will devour the forehead of Moab and the heads of the rebellious people. 45בְּצֵ֥ל חֶשְׁבּ֛וֹן עָמְד֖וּ מִכֹּ֣חַ נָסִ֑ים כִּֽי־ אֵ֞שׁ יָצָ֣א מֵחֶשְׁבּ֗וֹן וְלֶֽהָבָה֙ מִבֵּ֣ין סִיח֔וֹן וַתֹּ֙אכַל֙ פְּאַ֣ת מוֹאָ֔ב וְקָדְקֹ֖ד בְּנֵ֥י שָׁאֽוֹן׃
46How terrible for you, Moab! The people of Chemosh will perish. Indeed, your sons will be taken into captivity, and your daughters as well. 46אוֹי־ לְךָ֣ מוֹאָ֔ב אָבַ֖ד עַם־ כְּמ֑וֹשׁ כִּֽי־ לֻקְּח֤וּ בָנֶ֙יךָ֙ בַּשֶּׁ֔בִי וּבְנֹתֶ֖יךָ בַּשִּׁבְיָֽה׃
47But I'll restore the fortunes of Moab in the latter days," declares the LORD. This concludes the judgment on Moab.47וְשַׁבְתִּ֧י שְׁבוּת־ מוֹאָ֛ב בְּאַחֲרִ֥ית הַיָּמִ֖ים נְאֻם־ יְהוָ֑ה עַד־ הֵ֖נָּה מִשְׁפַּ֥ט מוֹאָֽב׃ ס
