48:3 Cries of anguish will arise in Horonaim,
‘Oh, the ruin and great destruction!’
48:4 “Moab will be crushed.
Her children will cry out in distress.
48:5 Indeed they will climb the slopes of Luhith,
weeping continually as they go.
For on the road down to Horonaim
they will hear the cries of distress over the destruction.
50:22 The noise of battle can be heard in the land of Babylonia.
There is the sound of great destruction.
50:27 Kill all her soldiers!
Let them be slaughtered!
They are doomed,
the time for them to be punished.”
50:43 The king of Babylon will become paralyzed with fear
when he hears news of their coming.
Anguish will grip him,
agony like that of a woman giving birth to a baby.
50:46 The people of the earth will quake when they hear Babylon has been captured.
Her cries of anguish will be heard by the other nations.”
13:6 Wail, for the Lord’s day of judgment
it comes with all the destructive power of the sovereign judge.
13:7 For this reason all hands hang limp,
every human heart loses its courage.
13:8 They panic –
cramps and pain seize hold of them
like those of a woman who is straining to give birth.
They look at one another in astonishment;
their faces are flushed red.
13:9 Look, the Lord’s day of judgment
it is a day of cruelty and savage, raging anger,
destroying
and annihilating its sinners.
15:5 My heart cries out because of Moab’s plight,
and for the fugitives
For they weep as they make their way up the ascent of Luhith;
they loudly lament their demise on the road to Horonaim.
1:10 On that day,” says the Lord,
“a loud cry will go up
wailing from the city’s newer district,
and a loud crash
18:17 because in a single hour such great wealth has been destroyed!”
And every ship’s captain,
“Woe, Woe, O great city –
in which all those who had ships on the sea got rich from her wealth –
because in a single hour she has been destroyed!”
