Isaiæ 15
1 Onus Moab. [Quia nocte vastata est Ar Moab, conticuit; quia nocte vastatus est murus Moab, conticuit.
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.
2 Ascendit domus, et Dibon ad excelsa, in planctum super Nabo; et super Medaba, Moab ululavit; in cunctis capitibus ejus calvitium, et omnis barba radetur.
They have gone up to Bayith, and to Dibon, to the high places, to weep. Moab wails over Nebo and over Medeba. Baldness is on all of their heads. Every beard is cut off.
3 In triviis ejus accincti sunt sacco; super tecta ejus et in plateis ejus omnis ululatus descendit in fletum.
In their streets, they clothe themselves in sackcloth. In their streets and on their housetops, everyone wails, weeping abundantly.
4 Clamabit Hesebon et Eleale, usque Jasa audita est vox eorum; super hoc expediti Moab ululabunt, anima ejus ululabit sibi.
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.
5 Cor meum ad Moab clamabit; vectes ejus usque ad Segor, vitulam conternantem; per ascensum enim Luith flens ascendet, et in via Oronaim clamorem contritionis levabunt.
My heart cries out for Moab! Her nobles flee to Zoar, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for they go up by the ascent of Luhith with weeping; for on the way to Horonaim, they raise up a cry of destruction.
6 Aquæ enim Nemrim desertæ erunt, quia aruit herba, defecit germen, viror omnis interiit.
For the waters of Nimrim will be desolate; for the grass has withered away, the tender grass fails, there is no green thing.
7 Secundum magnitudinem operis, et visitatio eorum: ad torrentem Salicum ducent eos.
Therefore they will carry away the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have stored up, over the brook of the willows.
8 Quoniam circuivit clamor terminum Moab; usque ad Gallim ululatus ejus, et usque ad puteum Elim clamor ejus.
For the cry has gone around the borders of Moab, its wailing to Eglaim, and its wailing to Beer Elim.
9 Quia aquæ Dibon repletæ sunt sanguine; ponam enim super Dibon additamenta; his qui fugerint de Moab leonem, et reliquiis terræ.]
For the waters of Dimon are full of blood; for I will bring yet more on Dimon, a lion on those of Moab who escape, and on the remnant of the land.
