Sendye the lambto the rulerof the landfrom Selato the wilderness, untothe mountof the daughterof Zion. For it shall be, that , as a wanderingbirdcast outof the nest, so the daughtersof Moabshall beat the fordsof Arnon. Takecounsel, executejudgment; makethy shadowas the nightin the midstof the noonday; hidethe outcasts; betraynothim that wandereth. Let mine outcastsdwellwith thee, Moab; bethou a covertto them from the faceof the spoiler: forthe extortioneris at an end, the spoilerceaseth, the oppressorsare consumedout ofthe land. And in mercyshall the thronebe established: and he shall situponit in truthin the tabernacleof David, judging, and seekingjudgment, and hastingrighteousness. We have heardof the prideof Moab; he is veryproud: even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath: but his lies shall not be so. Thereforeshall Moabhowlfor Moab, every oneshall howl: for the foundationsof Kir-hareseth shall ye mourn; surely they are stricken. Forthe fieldsof Heshbonlanguish, and the vineof Sibmah: the lordsof the heathenhave broken downthe principal plantsthereof, they are come even untoJazer, they wandered through the wilderness: her branchesare stretched out, they are gone overthe sea. ThereforeI will bewailwith the weepingof Jazerthe vineof Sibmah: I will waterthee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: forthe shoutingforthy summer fruitsand forthy harvestis fallen. And gladnessis taken away, and joyout ofthe plentiful field; and in the vineyardsthere shall be nosinging, neithershall there be shouting: the treadersshall treadout nowinein their presses; I have made their vintage shoutingto cease. Whereforemy bowelsshall soundlike a harpfor Moab, and mine inward partsfor Kir-haresh. And it shall come to pass, whenit is seenthatMoabis wearyonthe high place, that he shall cometohis sanctuaryto pray; but he shall notprevail. This is the wordthatthe LORDhath spokenconcerningMoabsince that time. But nowthe LORDhath spoken, saying, Within threeyears, as the yearsof a hireling, and the gloryof Moabshall be contemned, with allthat greatmultitude; and the remnant shall be very small and feeble.
