1 This is what the LORD says: "For three sins of Moab, even for four, I will not relent. Because he burned to ashes the bones of Edom's king,2 I will send fire on Moab that will consume the fortresses of Kerioth. "Moab will go down in great tumult amid war cries and the blast of the trumpet.3 I will destroy her ruler and kill all her officials with him," says the LORD.4 This is what the LORD says: "For three sins of Judah, even for four, I will not relent. Because they have rejected the law of the LORD and have not kept his decrees, because they have been led astray by false gods, "the gods "their ancestors followed,5 I will send fire on Judah that will consume the fortresses of Jerusalem."6 This is what the LORD says: "For three sins of Israel, even for four, I will not relent. They sell the innocent for silver, and the needy for a pair of sandals.7 They trample on the heads of the poor as on the dust of the ground and deny justice to the oppressed. Father and son use the same girl and so profane my holy name.8 They lie down beside every altar on garments taken in pledge. In the house of their god they drink wine taken as fines.9 "Yet I destroyed the Amorites before them, though they were tall as the cedars and strong as the oaks. I destroyed their fruit above and their roots below.10 I brought you up out of Egypt and led you forty years in the wilderness to give you the land of the Amorites.11 "I also raised up prophets from among your children and Nazirites from among your youths. Is this not true, people of Israel?" declares the LORD.12 "But you made the Nazirites drink wine and commanded the prophets not to prophesy.13 "Now then, I will crush you as a cart crushes when loaded with grain.14 The swift will not escape, the strong will not muster their strength, and the warrior will not save his life.15 The archer will not stand his ground, the fleet-footed soldier will not get away, and the horseman will not save his life.16 Even the bravest warriors will flee naked on that day," declares the LORD.

1 [Hc dicit Dominus :Super tribus sceleribus Moab,et super quatuor non convertam eum,eo quod incenderit ossa regis Idum usque ad cinerem.2 Et mittam ignem in Moab,et devorabit des Carioth :et morietur in sonitu Moab, in clangore tub.3 Et disperdam judicem de medio ejus,et omnes principes ejus interficiam cum eo,dicit Dominus.]4 [Hc dicit Dominus :Super tribus sceleribus Juda,et super quatuor non convertam eum,eo quod abjecerit legem Dominiet mandata ejus non custodierit :deceperant enim eos idola sua,post qu abierant patres eorum.5 Et mittam ignem in Juda,et devorabit des Jerusalem.6 Hc dicit Dominus :Super tribus sceleribus Isral,et super quatuor non convertam eum,pro eo quod vendiderit pro argento justum,et pauperem pro calceamentis.7 Qui conterunt super pulverem terr capita pauperum,et viam humilium declinant :et filius ac pater ejus ierunt ad puellam,ut violarent nomen sanctum meum.8 Et super vestimentis pignoratis accubuerunt juxta omne altare,et vinum damnatorum bibebant in domo Dei sui.9 Ego autem exterminavi Amorrhum a facie eorum,cujus altitudo, cedrorum altitudo ejus,et fortis ipse quasi quercus ;et contrivi fructum ejus desuper,et radices ejus subter.10 Ego sum qui ascendere vos feci de terra gypti,et duxi vos in deserto quadraginta annis,ut possideretis terram Amorrhi.11 Et suscitavi de filiis vestris in prophetas,et de juvenibus vestris nazaros.Numquid non ita est, filii Isral ? dicit Dominus.12 Et propinabitis nazaris vinum,et prophetis mandabitis, dicentes :Ne prophetetis.13 Ecce ego stridebo subter vos,sicut stridet plaustrum onustum fno.14 Et peribit fuga a veloce,et fortis non obtinebit virtutem suam,et robustus non salvabit animam suam :15 et tenens arcum non stabit,et velox pedibus suis non salvabitur,et ascensor equi non salvabit animam suam :16 et robustus corde inter fortes nudus fugiet in illa die,dicit Dominus.]
