Isaiah 15:7-9
Revised Standard Version
Isaiah 15:7-9
Revised Standard Version
7 Therefore the abundance they have gained
and what they have laid up
they carry away
over the Brook of the Willows.
8 For a cry has gone
round the land of Moab;
the wailing reaches to Egla′im,
the wailing reaches to Beer-e′lim.
9 For the waters of Dibon[a] are full of blood;
yet I will bring upon Dibon[b] even more,
a lion for those of Moab who escape,
for the remnant of the land.

7 So the wealth they have acquired(A) and stored up

8 Their outcry echoes along the border of Moab;
their wailing reaches as far as Eglaim,
their lamentation as far as Beer(B) Elim.
9 The waters of Dimon[a] are full of blood,
but I will bring still more upon Dimon[b]—
a lion(C) upon the fugitives of Moab(D)
and upon those who remain in the land.
