30. I--I have known, an affirmation of Jehovah, His wrath, and [it is] not right, His devices--not right they have done.
31. Therefore for Moab I howl, even for Moab--all of it, I cry for men of Kir-Heres, it doth mourn,
32. With the weeping of Jazer, I weep for thee, O vine of Sibmah, Thy branches have passed over a sea, Unto the sea of Jazer they have come, On thy summer fruits, and on thy harvest, A spoiler hath fallen.
33. And removed hath been joy and gladness From the fruitful field, Even from the land of Moab, And wine from wine-presses I have caused to cease, Shouting doth not proceed, The shouting [is] no shouting!
34. Because of the cry of Heshbon unto Elealeh, Unto Jahaz they have given their voice, From Zoar unto Horonaim, A heifer of the third [year], For even waters of Nimrim become desolations.
35. And I have caused to cease to Moab, An affirmation of Jehovah, Him who is offering in a high place, And him who is making perfume to his god.
36. Therefore my heart for Moab as pipes doth sound, And my heart for men of Kir- Heres As pipes doth sound, Therefore the abundance he made did perish.
