1 The word about Moab. For in a night Ar of Moab has become waste, and is seen no longer; for in a night Kir of Moab has become waste, and is seen no longer.

2 The daughter of Dibon has gone up to the high places, weeping: Moab is sounding her cry of sorrow over Nebo, and over Medeba: everywhere the hair of the head and of the face is cut off.

3 In their streets they are covering themselves with haircloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their public places, there is crying and bitter weeping.

4 Heshbon is crying out, and Elealeh; their voice is sounding even to Jahaz: for this cause the heart of Moab is shaking; his soul is shaking with fear.

5 My heart is crying out for Moab; her people go in flight to Zoar, and to Eglath-shelishiyah: for they go up with weeping by the slope of Luhith; on the way to Horonaim they send up a cry of destruction.

6 The waters of Nimrim will become dry: for the grass is burned up, the young grass is coming to an end, every green thing is dead.

7 For this cause they will take away their wealth, and the stores they have got together, over the stream of the water-plants.

8 For the cry has gone round the limits of Moab; as far as to Eglaim and Beer-elim.

9 For the waters of Dimon are full of blood: and I'm sending even more on Moab, a lion on those of Moab who go in flight, and on the rest of the land.

1 关于摩押的默示： 一夜之间， 摩押的亚珥受到蹂躏， 就灭亡了！ 一夜之间， 摩押的基珥受到蹂躏， 也灭亡了！

2 他们进入房子， 又往底本， 上到高处去哭泣， 摩押人为尼波和米底巴哀号； 各人头上都光秃， 胡须剃净。

3 他们在街上都腰束麻布； 在房顶上， 在广场上， 各人都哀号， 流泪痛哭。

4 希实本和以利亚利都呼喊， 他们的声音达到雅杂， 因此摩押配带武器的人大声呼叫， 各人的心都战兢。

5 我的心为摩押哀号， 它的逃民一直去到琐珥， 如同一头三岁大的牝牛， 要挣脱苦轭， 他们登上鲁希的山坡， 随走随哭， 他们在何罗念的路上， 发出灭亡的哀号。

6 因为宁林的众水都已荒凉， 青草枯干， 嫩草灭没， 完全没有青绿之物。

7 所以， 他们把所得的和所积蓄的财富， 都带过了柳树溪。

8 哀号的声音传遍了摩押四境， 哀声直达以基莲， 又传到比珥．以琳。

9 底们的水充满了血， 我还要把更多的灾祸加给底们， 使狮子临到摩押逃难的人和那地余下的人中间。
