¹Moabi kohta: Nõnda ütleb vägede Issand, Iisraeli Jumal: 'Häda Nebole, sest ta hävitatakse! Häbisse jääb, vallutatakse Kirjataim, häbisse jääb ja purustatakse pelgupaik!

¹Of Moab. Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Woe to Nebo! for it is laid waste; Kiriathaim is disappointed, it is taken; Misgab is put to shame and broken down.

²Moabi kuulsus kaob, Hesbonis kavatsetakse kurja tema vastu: 'Mingem ja hävitagem ta rahvaste hulgast!' Ka sina, Madmen, hukkud - su kannul käib mõõk!

²The praise of Moab is no more; in Heshbon they have devised evil against her: Come, and let us cut her off from being a nation. You also, Madmen, shall be brought to silence: the sword shall pursue you.

³Kuule! Hooronaimist kostab kisa: 'Hävitus ja suur kokkuvarisemine!'

³The sound of a cry from Horonaim, desolation and great destruction!

⁴'Moab on purustatud!' kostab ta lapsukeste kisa.

⁴Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.

⁵Jah, mööda Luuhiti tõusuteed minnakse nuttes üles, jah, Hooronaimi nõlvakult kostab hädakisa hävingu pärast:

⁵For by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping shall they go up; for at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.

⁶'Põgenege, päästke oma elu ja olge nagu kadakas kõrbes!'

⁶Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.

⁷Sellepärast et sa loodad oma tegude ja varanduste peale, vallutatakse ka sind. Ja Kemos läheb vangi üheskoos oma preestrite ja vürstidega.

⁷For, because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you also shall be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity, his priests and his princes together.

⁸Hävitaja tuleb iga linna kallale ja ükski linn ei pääse; org hukkub ja tasandik rikutakse, nagu Issand on ütelnud.

⁸The destroyer shall come on every city, and no city shall escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed; as Yahweh has spoken.

⁹Andke Moabile tiivad, ta lennaku ära! Ta linnad muutuvad õudseks, keegi ei ela neis.

⁹Give wings to Moab, that she may fly and get her away: and her cities shall become a desolation, without any to dwell therein.

¹⁰Neetud olgu, kes Issanda tööd teeb loiult, ja neetud olgu, kes hoiab oma mõõga verest eemal!

¹⁰Cursed is he who does the work of Yahweh negligently; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.

¹¹Moab on olnud muretu oma noorusest alates ja on vaikselt seisnud oma pärmi peal; teda ei ole kallatud astjast astjasse ega ole ta pidanud minema vangi; seepärast on talle jäänud alles ta maitse ja ta lõhn ei ole muutunud.

¹¹Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his lees, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remains in him, and his scent is not changed.

¹²Seepärast, vaata, päevad tulevad, ütleb Issand, mil ma läkitan tema kallale veinilaskjad, kes teda kallutavad; need tühjendavad tema astjad ja purustavad tema kruusid.

¹²Therefore behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that I will send to him those who pour off, and they shall pour him off; and they shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles in pieces.

¹³Siis Moab tunneb häbi Kemose pärast, nagu Iisraeli sugu tundis häbi Peeteli pärast, kelle peale nad lootsid.

¹³Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel their confidence.

¹⁴Kuidas te võite öelda: 'Me oleme vägevad ja vaprad sõjamehed!'?

¹⁴How do you say, We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war?

¹⁵Moab hävitatakse ja ta linnad tõusevad üles kui suits; ta valitud noored mehed laskuvad tapetavaiks, ütleb kuningas, kelle nimi on vägede Issand.

¹⁵Moab is laid waste, and they are gone up into his cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, says the King, whose name is Yahweh of Armies.

¹⁶Moabi hukatus ligineb ja tema õnnetus tõttab väga.

¹⁶The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hurries fast.

¹⁷Tundke temale kaasa, kõik ta naabrid ja kõik, kes tunnete tema nime, öelge: 'Kuidas küll on murtud tugev kepp, see tore sau!'

¹⁷All you who are around him, bemoan him, and all you who know his name; say, How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod!

¹⁸Astu alla oma auhiilgusest ja istu janus, elanik, Diiboni tütar! Sest Moabi hävitaja tuleb su kallale, hävitama su kindlustatud linnu.

¹⁸You daughter who dwells in Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the destroyer of Moab has come up against you, he has destroyed your strongholds.

¹⁹Seisa tee ääres ja vaata, Aroeri elanik! Küsi põgenikelt ja pääsenuilt: 'Mis on juhtunud?'

¹⁹Inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and watch: ask him who flees, and her who escapes; say, What has been done?

²⁰Moab on jäänud häbisse, sest ta on purustatud. Hüüdke ja karjuge, andke teada Arnoni ääres, et Moab on hävitatud.

²⁰Moab is disappointed; for it is broken down: wail and cry; tell it by the Arnon, that Moab is laid waste.

²¹Ja kohus tuleb tasasele maale, Holonile, Jahsale, Meefatile,

²¹Judgment has come on the plain country, on Holon, and on Jahzah, and on Mephaath,

²²Diibonile, Nebole, Beet-Diblataimile,

²²and on Dibon, and on Nebo, and on Beth Diblathaim,

²³Kirjataimile, Beet-Gaamulile, Beet-Meonile,

²³and on Kiriathaim, and on Beth Gamul, and on Beth Meon,

²⁴Kerijotile, Bosrale ja kõigile Moabimaa linnadele kaugel ja ligidal.

²⁴and on Kerioth, and on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.

²⁵Moabi sarv raiutakse maha ja tema käsivars murtakse, ütleb Issand.

²⁵The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, says Yahweh.

²⁶Jootke ta purju, sest ta on suurustanud Issanda vastu, et Moab vehiks kätega oma okse juures ja et temagi saaks naeruks!

²⁶Make him drunken; for he magnified himself against Yahweh: and Moab shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.

²⁷Eks ole Iisrael olnud sulle naeruks? Või tabati ta varaste hulgast, et sa vangutad pead iga kord, kui sa temast räägid?

²⁷For wasn’t Israel a derision to you? was he found among thieves? for as often as you speak of him, you shake your head.

²⁸Jätke linnad ja elage kaljudes, Moabi elanikud, olge nagu tuvi, kes pesitseb koopasuus!

²⁸You inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock; and be like the dove that makes her nest over the mouth of the abyss.

²⁹Me oleme kuulnud Moabi kõrkusest - ta on väga ülbe, tema uhkusest, hooplemisest ja upsakusest ning tema südame suurelisusest.

²⁹We have heard of the pride of Moab. He is very proud; his loftiness, and his pride, and his arrogance, and the haughtiness of his heart.

³⁰Mina tunnen, ütleb Issand, tema jultumust ja valejutte - nad on teinud valesti.

³⁰I know his wrath, says Yahweh, that it is nothing; his boastings have worked nothing.

³¹Seetõttu ulun ma Moabi pärast, kisendan kogu Moabi pärast, kurdan Kiir-Heresi inimeste pärast.

³¹Therefore will I wail for Moab; yes, I will cry out for all Moab: for the men of Kir Heres shall they mourn.

³²Rohkem kui on nuttu Jaaseri pärast, nutan ma sinu pärast, Sibma viinapuu. Su lokkavad kasvud tungisid üle mere, ulatusid Jaaseri mereni. Su suvivilja ja viinamarjalõikuse kallale sööstab hävitaja.

³²With more than the weeping of Jazer will I weep for you, vine of Sibmah: your branches passed over the sea, they reached even to the sea of Jazer: on your summer fruits and on your vintage the destroyer is fallen.

³³Rõõm ja ilutsemine võetakse viljapuuaiast ja Moabimaalt. Ma lõpetan veini surutõrrest, enam ei tallata seda rõõmuhüüetega, rõõmuhüüd ei olegi enam rõõmuhüüd.

³³Gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to cease from the wine presses: none shall tread with shouting; the shouting shall be no shouting.

³⁴Hädahüüded on Hesbonist kuni Elaaleni ja Jahaseni, nad annavad kuulda oma häält Soarist kuni Hooronaimini ja Eglat-Selisijani, sest ka Nimrimi veed muutuvad kõrbeks.

³⁴From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh, even to Jahaz have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even to Horonaim, to Eglath Shelishiyah: for the waters of Nimrim also shall become desolate.

³⁵Ja ma lõpetan Moabist selle, ütleb Issand, kes ohverdab künkal ja suitsutab oma jumalatele.

³⁵Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, says Yahweh, him who offers in the high place, and him who burns incense to his gods.

³⁶Seetõttu kaebleb mu süda Moabi pärast otsekui vilepill; ja mu süda kaebleb Kiir-Heresi inimeste pärast otsekui vilepill, et nende kogutud vara on hävinud.

³⁶Therefore my heart sounds for Moab like pipes, and my heart sounds like pipes for the men of Kir Heres: therefore the abundance that he has gotten is perished.

³⁷Tõesti, kõik pead on siis paljad ja kõik habemed aetud, kõigil kätel on sisselõiked ja kõigil niudeil kotiriie.

³⁷For every head is bald, and every beard clipped: on all the hands are cuttings, and on the waist sackcloth.

³⁸Kõigil Moabi katuseil ja tänavail on üldine leinakaebus, sest ma purustan Moabi otsekui kõlbmatu astja, mis kellelegi ei meeldi, ütleb Issand.

³⁸On all the housetops of Moab and in its streets there is lamentation every where; for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which none delights, says Yahweh.

³⁹Kuidas ta küll on purustatud! Ulguge! Kuidas küll on Moab häbiga pööranud selja! Moab saab naeruks ja hirmutuseks kõigile oma naabritele.

³⁹How it is broken down! How they wail! How Moab has turned the back with shame! So shall Moab become a derision and a terror to all who are around him.

⁴⁰Sest nõnda ütleb Issand: Vaata, ta lendab nagu kotkas ja laotab oma tiibu Moabi kohal.

⁴⁰For thus says Yahweh: Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread out his wings against Moab.

⁴¹Linnad vallutatakse ja kindlused saadakse kätte: sel päeval on Moabi kangelaste süda otsekui lapsevaevas oleva naise süda.

⁴¹Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are seized, and the heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.

⁴²Ja Moab hävitatakse rahvaste seast, sest ta on suurustanud Issanda vastu.

⁴²Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against Yahweh.

⁴³Pelg, püügiauk ja püüdepael on su ees, Moabi elanik, ütleb Issand.

⁴³Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are on you, inhabitant of Moab, says Yahweh.

⁴⁴Kes siis põgeneb pelju eest, langeb püügiauku; ja kes tuleb välja püügiaugust, selle püüab püüdepael; sest ma toon temale, Moabile, nende karistusaasta, ütleb Issand.

⁴⁴He who flees from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he who gets up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring on him, even on Moab, the year of their visitation, says Yahweh.

⁴⁵Hesboni varjus seisavad põgenikud jõuetult; sest Hesbonist lähtub tuli ja Siihoni keskelt leek: see põletab Moabi oimud ja lärmajate pealae.

⁴⁵Those who fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; for a fire is gone forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and has devoured the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.

⁴⁶Häda sulle, Moab! Kaduma peab Kemose rahvas, sest su pojad võetakse vangi ja su tütred peavad olema vangis!

⁴⁶Woe to you, O Moab! the people of Chemosh is undone; for your sons are taken away captive, and your daughters into captivity.

⁴⁷Aga viimseil päevil ma pööran Moabi vangipõlve, ütleb Issand.' Niipalju kohtust Moabi üle.

⁴⁷Yet will I bring back the captivity of Moab in the latter days, says Yahweh. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
