¹The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence;

¹Ennustus Moabi kohta: Tõesti, ühel ööl on Moabi Aar hävitatud, vaikima pandud. Tõesti, ühel ööl on Moabi Kiir hävitatud, vaikima pandud.

²He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off.

²Ka Diibon läheb üles templisse, ohvriküngastele nutma, Nebol ja Meedebal ulub Moab. Kõigil on pead pöetud ja kõik habemed on ära aetud.

³In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly.

³Tänavail pannakse kotiriie selga, katustel ja turgudel uluvad kõik, upuvad pisaraisse.

⁴And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous unto him.

⁴Hesbon ja Elaale kisendavad appi, Jahaseni kostab nende hääl; seepärast lõdisevad Moabi niuded, väriseb ta hing.

⁵My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction.

⁵Mu süda kisendab Moabi pärast. Ta põgenikud põgenevad Soarini, Eglat-Selisijani. Jah, mööda Luuhiti tõusuteed minnakse nuttes üles, jah, Hooronaimi teel tõstetakse hädakisa hävingu pärast.

⁶For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away, the grass faileth, there is no green thing.

⁶Sest Nimrimi veed muutuvad kõrbeks; jah, rohi kuivab, taimkate kaob, haljust ei ole enam.

⁷Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows.

⁷Seepärast nad viivad oma kogutud vara ja nende poolt tallelepandu üle Remmelgajõe.

⁸For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab; the howling thereof unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beerelim.

⁸Jah, appihüüd kajab Moabimaal; ta hädakisa kostab Eglaimini, ta hädakisa kostab Beer-Eelimini.

⁹For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.

⁹Jah, Diimoni veed on täis verd. Aga veel muudki ma saadan Diimonile: lõvi Moabi pääsenute ja maale jäänute kallale.
