⁸ The fields of Heshbon^(A) wither,^(B)
    the vines of Sibmah^(C) also.
The rulers of the nations
    have trampled down the choicest vines,^(D)
which once reached Jazer^(E)
    and spread toward the desert.
Their shoots spread out^(F)
    and went as far as the sea.^[a](G)
9 So I weep,^(H) as Jazer weeps,
    for the vines of Sibmah.
Heshbon and Elealeh,^(I)
    I drench you with tears!^(J)
The shouts of joy^(K) over your ripened fruit
    and over your harvests^(L) have been stilled.
¹⁰ Joy and gladness are taken away from the orchards;^(M)
    no one sings or shouts^(N) in the vineyards;
no one treads^(O) out wine at the presses,^(P)
    for I have put an end to the shouting.
¹¹ My heart laments for Moab^(Q) like a harp,^(R)
    my inmost being^(S) for Kir Hareseth.
¹² When Moab appears at her high place,^(T)
    she only wears herself out;
when she goes to her shrine^(U) to pray,
    it is to no avail.^(V)

³² I weep for you, as Jazer^(A) weeps,
    you vines of Sibmah.^(B)
Your branches spread as far as the sea^[a];
    they reached as far as^[b] Jazer.
The destroyer has fallen
    on your ripened fruit and grapes.
