Mo’av has been shattered;
the cries of her young ones are heard,
as they ascend the slopes of Luchit,
weeping bitterly as they climb.
On the road down to Horonayim
shrieks of destruction ring out.”

Flee! Save your lives!
Be strong, like a tamarisk in the desert.

Moab will be broken;
    her little ones will cry out.[a]
They go up the hill to Luhith,(A)
    weeping bitterly as they go;
on the road down to Horonaim(B)
    anguished cries over the destruction are heard.
Flee!(C) Run for your lives;
    become like a bush[b] in the desert.(D)
