1 The Message on Moab from God-of-the-Angel-Armies, the God of Israel: "Doom to Nebo! Leveled to the ground! Kiriathaim demeaned and defeated, The mighty fortress reduced to a molehill,
1 Concerning Moab: This is what the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says: “Woe to Nebo, for it will be ruined. Kiriathaim will be disgraced and captured; the stronghold will be disgraced and shattered.
2 Moab's glory - dust and ashes. Conspirators plot Heshbon's doom: 'Come, let's wipe Moab off the map.' Dungface Dimon will loudly lament, as killing follows killing.
2 Moab will be praised no more; in Heshbon people will plot her downfall: ‘Come, let us put an end to that nation.’ You, the people of Madmen, will also be silenced; the sword will pursue you.
3 Listen! A cry out of Horonaim: 'Disaster - doom and more doom!'
3 Cries of anguish arise from Horonaim, cries of great havoc and destruction.
4 Moab will be shattered. Her cries will be heard clear down in Zoar.
4 Moab will be broken; her little ones will cry out.
5 Up the ascent of Luhith climbers weep, And down the descent from Horonaim, cries of loss and devastation.
5 They go up the hill to Luhith, weeping bitterly as they go; on the road down to Horonaim anguished cries over the destruction are heard.
6 Oh, run for your lives! Get out while you can! Survive by your wits in the wild!
6 Flee! Run for your lives; become like a bush in the desert.
7 You trusted in thick walls and big money, yes? But it won't help you now. Your big god Chemosh will be hauled off, his priests and managers with him.
7 Since you trust in your deeds and riches, you too will be taken captive, and Chemosh will go into exile, together with his priests and officials.
