Isaiah 15:1--16:14

15:1

The burden
<04853>

of Moab
<04124>_.

Because in the night
<03915>

Ar
<06144>

of Moab
<04124>

is laid waste
<07703> (8795)_,

[and] brought to silence
<01820> (8738)_;

because in the night
<03915>

Kir
<07024>

of Moab
<04124>

is laid waste
<07703> (8795)_,

[and] brought to silence
<01820> (8738)_;

{brought...: or, cut off}

15:2

He is gone up
<05927> (8804)

to Bajith
<01006>_,

and to Dibon
<01769>_,

the high places
<01116>_,

to weep
<01065>_:

Moab
<04124>

shall howl
<03213> (8686)

over Nebo
<05015>_,

and over Medeba
<04311>_:

on all their heads
<07218>

[shall be] baldness
<07144>_,

[and] every beard
<02206>

cut off
<01438> (8803)_.

15:3

In their streets
<02351>

they shall gird
<02296> (8804)

themselves with sackcloth
<08242>_:

on the tops
<01406>

of their houses, and in their streets
<07339>_,

every one shall howl
<03213> (8686)_,

weeping
<01065>

abundantly
<03381> (8802)_.

{weeping...: Heb. descending into weeping, or, coming down with weeping}

15:4

And Heshbon
<02809>

shall cry
<02199> (8799)_,

and Elealeh
<0500>_:

their voice
<06963>

shall be heard
<08085> (8738)

[even] unto Jahaz
<03096>_:

therefore the armed soldiers
<02502> (8803)

of Moab
<04124>

shall cry out
<07321> (8686)_;

his life
<05315>

shall be grievous
<03415> (8804)

unto him.

15:5

My heart
<03820>

shall cry out
<02199> (8799)

for Moab
<04124>_;

his fugitives
<01280>

[shall flee] unto Zoar
<06820>_,

an heifer
<05697>

of three years old
<07992>_:

for by the mounting up
<04608>

of Luhith
<03872>

with weeping
<01065>

shall they go it up
<05927> (8799)_;

for in the way
<01870>

of Horonaim
<02773>

they shall raise up
<05782> (8787)

a cry
<02201>

of destruction
<07667>_.

{his...: or, to the borders thereof, even to Zoar, as an heifer} {destruction: Heb. breaking}

15:6

For the waters
<04325>

of Nimrim
<05249>

shall be desolate
<04923>_:

for the hay
<02682>

is withered away
<03001> (8804)_,

the grass
<01877>

faileth
<03615> (8804)_,

there is no green thing
<03418>_.

{desolate: Heb. desolations}

15:7

Therefore the abundance
<03502>

they have gotten
<06213> (8804)_,

and that which they have laid up
<06486>_,

shall they carry away
<05375> (8799)

to the brook
<05158>

of the willows
<06155>_.

{brook...: or, valley of the Arabians}

15:8

For the cry
<02201>

is gone round about
<05362> (8689)

the borders
<01366>

of Moab
<04124>_;

the howling
<03215>

thereof unto Eglaim
<097>_,

and the howling
<03215>

thereof unto Beerelim
<0879>_.

15:9

For the waters
<04325>

of Dimon
<01775>

shall be full
<04390> (8804)

of blood
<01818>_:

for I will bring
<07896> (8799)

more
<03254> (8737)

upon Dimon
<01775>_,

lions
<0738>

upon him that escapeth
<06413>

of Moab
<04124>_,

and upon the remnant
<07611>

of the land
<0127>_.

{more: Heb. additions}

16:1

Send
<07971> (8798)

ye the lamb
<03733>

to the ruler
<04910> (8802)

of the land
<0776>

from Sela
<05554>

to the wilderness
<04057>_,

unto the mount
<02022>

of the daughter
<01323>

of Zion
<06726>_.

{Sela: or, Petra: Heb. A rock}

16:2

For it shall be, [that], as a wandering
<05074> (8802)

bird
<05775>

cast out
<07971> (8794)

of the nest
<07064>_,

[so] the daughters
<01323>

of Moab
<04124>

shall be at the fords
<04569>

of Arnon
<0769>_.

{cast...: or, a nest forsaken}

16:3

Take
<0935> (8685)

counsel
<06098>_,

execute
<06213> (8798)

judgment
<06415>_;

make
<07896> (8798)

thy shadow
<06738>

as the night
<03915>

in the midst
<08432>

of the noonday
<06672>_;

hide
<05641> (8761)

the outcasts
<05080> (8737)_;

bewray
<01540> (8762)

not him that wandereth
<05074> (8802)_.

{Take: Heb. Bring}

16:4

Let mine outcasts
<05080> (8737)

dwell
<01481> (8799)

with thee, Moab
<04124>_;

be
<01933> (8798)

thou a covert
<05643>

to them from the face
<06440>

of the spoiler
<07703> (8802)_:

for the extortioner
<04160> (8801)

is at an end
<0656> (8804)_,

the spoiler
<07701>

ceaseth
<03615> (8804)_,

the oppressors
<07429> (8802)

are consumed
<08552> (8804)

out of the land
<0776>_.

{extortioner: Heb. wringer} {the oppressors: Heb. the treaders down}

16:5

And in mercy
<02617>

shall the throne
<03678>

be established
<03559> (8717)_:

and he shall sit
<03427> (8804)

upon it in truth
<0571>

in the tabernacle
<0168>

of David
<01732>_,

judging
<08199> (8802)_,

and seeking
<01875> (8802)

judgment
<04941>_,

and hasting
<04106>

righteousness
<06664>_.

{established: or, prepared}

16:6

We have heard
<08085> (8804)

of the pride
<01347>

of Moab
<04124>_;

[he is] very
<03966>

proud
<01341>_:

[even] of his haughtiness
<01346>_,

and his pride
<01347>_,

and his wrath
<05678>_:

[but] his lies
<0907>

[shall] not [be] so.

16:7

Therefore shall Moab
<04124>

howl
<03213> (8686)

for Moab
<04124>_,

every one shall howl
<03213> (8686)_:

for the foundations
<0808>

of Kirhareseth
<07025>

shall ye mourn
<01897> (8799)_;

surely [they are] stricken
<05218>_.

{mourn: or, mutter}

16:8

For the fields
<07709>

of Heshbon
<02809>

languish
<0535> (8797)_,

[and] the vine
<01612>

of Sibmah
<07643>_:

the lords
<01167>

of the heathen
<01471>

have broken down
<01986> (8804)

the principal plants
<08291>

thereof, they are come
<05060> (8804)

[even] unto Jazer
<03270>_,

they wandered
<08582> (8804)

[through] the wilderness
<04057>_:

her branches
<07976>

are stretched out
<05203> (8738)_,

they are gone over
<05674> (8804)

the sea
<03220>_.

{stretched...: or, plucked up}

16:9

Therefore I will bewail
<01058> (8799)

with the weeping
<01065>

of Jazer
<03270>

the vine
<01612>

of Sibmah
<07643>_:

I will water
<07301> (8762)

thee with my tears
<01832>_,

O Heshbon
<02809>_,

and Elealeh
<0500>_:

for the shouting
<01959>

for thy summer fruits
<07019>

and for thy harvest
<07105>

is fallen
<05307> (8804)_.

{the shouting...: or, the alarm is fallen upon, etc}

16:10

And gladness
<08057>

is taken away
<0622> (8738)_,

and joy
<01524>

out of the plentiful field
<03759>_;

and in the vineyards
<03754>

there shall be no singing
<07442> (8792)_,

neither shall there be shouting
<07321> (8783)_:

the treaders
<01869> (8802)

shall tread out
<01869> (8799)

no wine
<03196>

in [their] presses
<03342>_;

I have made [their vintage] shouting
<01959>

to cease
<07673> (8689)_.

16:11

Wherefore my bowels
<04578>

shall sound
<01993> (8799)

like an harp
<03658>

for Moab
<04124>_,

and mine inward parts
<07130>

for Kirharesh
<07025>_.

16:12

And it shall come to pass, when it is seen
<07200> (8738)

that Moab
<04124>

is weary
<03811> (8738)

on the high place
<01116>_,

that he shall come
<0935> (8804)

to his sanctuary
<04720>

to pray
<06419> (8692)_;

but he shall not prevail
<03201> (8799)_.

16:13

This [is] the word
<01697>

that the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)

concerning Moab
<04124>

since that time
<0227>_.

16:14

But now the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Within three
<07969>

years
<08141>_,

as the years
<08141>

of an hireling
<07916>_,

and the glory
<03519>

of Moab
<04124>

shall be contemned
<07034> (8738)_,

with all that great
<07227>

multitude
<01995>_;

and the remnant
<07605>

[shall be] very
<04592>

small
<04213>

[and] feeble
<03808> <03524>_.

{feeble: or, not many}
