SEND ye the lamb to the ruler of the land from Sela to the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018690">2</a>. For it shall be, that, as a wandering bird cast out of the nest, so the daughters of Moab shall be at the fords of Arnon.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018691">3</a>. Take counsel, execute judgment; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; bewray not him that wandereth.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018692">4</a>. Let mine outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceaseth, the oppressors are consumed out of the land.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018693">5</a>. And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018694">6</a>. We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud: even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath: but his lies shall not be so.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018695">7</a>. Therefore shall Moab howl for Moab, every one shall howl: for the foundations of Kir-hareseth shall ye mourn; surely they are stricken.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018696">8</a>. For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah: the lords of the heathen have broken down the principal plants thereof, they are come even unto Jazer, they wandered through the wilderness: her branches are stretched out, they are gone over the sea.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018697">9</a>. Therefore I will bewail with the weeping of Jazer the vine of Sibmah: I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is fallen.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018698">10</a>. And gladness is taken away, and joy out of the plentiful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting: the treaders shall tread out no wine in their presses; I have made their vintage shouting to cease.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018699">11</a>. Wherefore my bowels shall sound like an harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kir-haresh.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018700">12</a>. And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018701">13</a>. This is the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning Moab since that time.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1018702">14</a>. But now the LORD hath spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of an hireling, and the glory of Moab shall be contemned, with all that great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and feeble.</li>
