The Latin Vulgate VUL
Revised Standard Version RSV
1 onus Moab quia nocte vastata est Ar Moab conticuit quia nocte vastatus est murus Moab conticuit
1
An oracle concerning Moab. Because Ar is laid waste in a night Moab is undone; because Kir is laid waste in a night Moab is undone.
2 ascendit domus et Dibon ad excelsa in planctum super Nabo et super Medaba Moab ululabit in cunctis capitibus eius calvitium omnis barba radetur
2
The daughter of Dibon has gone up to the high places to weep; over Nebo and over Med'eba Moab wails. On every head is baldness, every beard is shorn;
3 in triviis eius accincti sunt sacco super tecta eius et in plateis eius omnis ululat descendit in fletum
3
in the streets they gird on sackcloth; on the housetops and in the squares every one wails and melts in tears.
4 clamavit Esebon et Eleale usque Iasa audita est vox eorum super hoc expediti Moab ululabunt anima eius ululabit sibi
4
Heshbon and Ele-a'leh cry out, their voice is heard as far as Jahaz; therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud; his soul trembles.
5 cor meum ad Moab clamabit vectes eius usque ad Segor vitulam conternantem per ascensum enim Luith flens ascendet et in via Oronaim clamorem contritionis levabunt
5
My heart cries out for Moab; his fugitives flee to Zo'ar, to Eg'lath-shelish'iyah. For at the ascent of Luhith they go up weeping; on the road to Horona'im they raise a cry of destruction;
6 aquae enim Nemrim desertae erunt quia aruit herba defecit germen viror omnis interiit
6
the waters of Nimrim are a desolation; the grass is withered, the new growth fails, the verdure is no more.
7 secundum magnitudinem operis et visitatio eorum ad torrentem salicum ducent eos
7
Therefore the abundance they have gained and what they have laid up they carry away over the Brook of the Willows.
8 quoniam circumiit clamor terminum Moab usque ad Gallim ululatus eius et usque ad puteum Helim clamor eius
8
For a cry has gone round the land of Moab; the wailing reaches to Egla'im, the wailing reaches to Beer-e'lim.
9 quia aquae Dibon repletae sunt sanguine ponam enim super Dibon additamenta his qui fugerint de Moab leonem et reliquiis terrae
9
For the waters of Dibon are full of blood; yet I will bring upon Dibon even more, a lion for those of Moab who escape, for the remnant of the land.
