< Isaiah 15 >
1 The burden of Moab: for in a night, Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to nothing; for in a night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to nothing.
Onus Moab. Quia nocte vastata est Ar Moab, conticuit: quia nocte vastatus est murus Moab, conticuit.
2 They have gone up to the temple, and to Dibon, to the high places to weep. Moab wails over Nebo and over Medeba. On every head is baldness. Every beard is cut off.
Ascendit domus, et Dibon ad excelsa in planctum super Nabo, et super Medaba, Moab ululavit: in cunctis capitibus eius calvitium, et omnis barba radetur.
3 In their streets, they dress themselves in sackcloth; on their roofs and in their squares, everyone wails, weeping abundantly.
In triviis eius accincti sunt sacco: super tecta eius, et in plateis eius omnis ululatus descendit in fletum.
4 Heshbon cries out with Elealeh. Their voice is heard even to Jahaz. Therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud. Their souls tremble within them.
Clamabit Hesebon, et Eleale, usque Iasa audita est vox eorum. Super hoc expediti Moab ululabunt, anima eius ululabit sibi.
5 My heart cries out for Moab. Her Nazirites flee to Zoar, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for they go up by the ascent of Luhith with weeping; for in the way of Horonaim, they raise up a cry of destruction.
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.
6 For the waters of Nimrim will be desolate; for the grass has withered away, the tender grass fails, there is no green thing.
Aquæ enim Nemrim desertæ erunt, quia aruit herba, defecit germen, viror omnis interiit.
7 Therefore they will carry away the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have stored up, over the Brook of the Willows.
Secundum magnitudinem operis et visitatio eorum: ad torrentem salicum ducent eos.
8 For the cry has gone around the borders of Moab; its wailing as far as Eglaim, and its wailing as far as Beer Elim.
Quoniam circuivit clamor terminum Moab: usque ad Gallim ululatus eius, et usque ad Puteum Elim clamor eius.
9 For the waters of Dibon are full of blood; for I will bring yet more on Dibon, a lion on those of Moab who escape, and on the remnant of the land.
Quia aquæ Dibon repletæ sunt sanguine: ponam enim super Dibon additamenta: his, qui fugerint de Moab leonem, et reliquiis terræ.
