“Moab is destroyed!”
    her little ones cry out.
For at the ascent of Luhith
    they go[a] up weeping bitterly;
for at the descent of Horonaim
    they have heard the distressing cry of anguish.
Flee! Save yourselves!
    Be like a wild ass[b] 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)
