Isaiah 15:4-9

4 1Heshbon and Elealeh also cry out, Their voice is heard all the way to Jahaz; Therefore * the armed men of Moab cry aloud; His soul trembles within him.
5 My heart cries out for Moab; His fugitives are as far as 2Zoar and Eglath-shelishiyah *, For they go up the 3ascent of Luhith weeping; Surely on the road to Horonaim they raise a cry of distress 4over their ruin.
6 For the 5waters of Nimrim are desolate. Surely the grass is withered, the tender grass died out, There is 6no green thing.
7 Therefore * the 7abundance which they have acquired and stored up They carry off over the brook of Arabim.
8 For the cry of distress has gone around the territory of Moab, Its wail goes as far as Eglaim and its wailing even to Beer-elim.
9 For the waters of Dimon are full of blood; Surely I will bring added woes upon Dimon, A 8lion upon the fugitives of Moab and upon the remnant of the land.
