* The (note :){{See Isa_13:1 }}(:note ) burden of Moab . Because in the night The chief city by which the whole country was meant . Ar of Moab is laid waste , [and ] brought to silence ; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste , [and ] brought to silence ; * * In their streetes shall they bee gilded with sackecloth : on the toppes of their houses , and in their streetes euery one shall howle , and come downe with weeping . * And Heshbon shall crie , and Elealeh : their voyce shall bee heard vnto Iahaz : therefore the warriers of Moab shall showt : the soule of euery one shall lament in him selfe . * My (note :)The prophet speaks this in the person of the Moabites : or as one who felt the great judgment of God that God would come on them .(:note ) heart shall cry out for Moab ; his fugitives [shall flee ] to Zoar , Meaning that it was a city that always lived in pleasure and never felt sorrow . an heifer of three years old : for they shall go up the ascent of Luhith with weeping for in the way of Horonaim they He describes the miserable dissipation and flight of the Moabites . shall raise a cry of destruction . * For the waters of Nimrim shal be dried vp : therefore the grasse is withered , the herbes consumed , and there was no greene herbe . * Therefore the abundance they have gained , and that which they have laid up , shall they carry away to the (note :)To hide themselves and their goods there .(:note ) brook of the willows . * For the crie went round about the borders of Moab : and the howling thereof vnto Eglaim , and the skriking thereof vnto Beer Elim , * For the waters of Dimon shall be full (note :)Of them who are slain .(:note ) of blood : for I will bring more upon Dimon , lions So that by no means would they escape the hand of God : thus will God punish the enemies of his Church . upon him that escapeth of Moab , and upon the remnant of the land .
