33 (A)Joy and gladness are taken
From the plentiful field
And from the land of Moab;
I have caused wine to [a]fail from the winepresses;
No one will tread with joyous shouting—
Not joyous shouting!

34 “From(B) the cry of Heshbon to (C)Elealeh and to Jahaz
They have uttered their voice,
(D)From Zoar to Horonaim,
Like [b]a three-year-old heifer;
For the waters of Nimrim also shall be desolate.

35 “Moreover,” says the Lord,
“I will cause to cease in Moab
(E)The one who offers sacrifices in the [c]high places
And burns incense to his gods.
