1預言摩押必傾覆關於摩押的默示：一夜之間，摩押的亞珥受到蹂躪，就滅亡了！一夜之間，摩押的基珥受到蹂躪，也滅亡了！
1The 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他們進入房子，又往底本，上到高處去哭泣，摩押人為尼波和米底巴哀號；各人頭上都光禿，鬍鬚剃淨。
2They 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他們在街上都腰束麻布；在房頂上，在廣場上，各人都哀號，流淚痛哭。
3In their streets, they clothe themselves in sackcloth. In their streets and on their housetops, everyone wails, weeping abundantly.
4希實本和以利亞利都呼喊，他們的聲音達到雅雜，因此摩押配帶武器的人大聲呼叫，各人的心都戰兢。
4Heshbon 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我的心為摩押哀號，它的逃民一直去到瑣珥，如同一頭三歲大的牝牛，要掙脫苦軛，他們登上魯希的山坡，隨走隨哭，他們在何羅念的路上，發出滅亡的哀號。
5My 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 in the way of Horonaim, they raise up a cry of destruction.
6因為寧林的眾水都已荒涼，青草枯乾，嫩草滅沒，完全沒有青綠之物。
6For the waters of Nimrim will be desolate; for the grass has withered away, the tender grass fails, there is no green thing.
7所以，他們把所得的和所積蓄的財富，都帶過了柳樹溪。
7Therefore they will carry away the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have stored up, over the brook of the willows.
8哀號的聲音傳遍了摩押四境，哀聲直達以基蓮，又傳到比珥．以琳。
8For the cry has gone around the borders of Moab; its wailing to Eglaim, and its wailing to Beer Elim.
9底們的水充滿了血，我還要把更多的災禍加給底們，使獅子臨到摩押逃難的人和那地餘下的人中間。
9For 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.
