Isaiah 15

1 Νυκτὸς ἀπολεῖται ἡ Μωαβῖτις, νυκτὸς γὰρ ἀπολεῖται τὸ τεῖχος τῆς Μωαβίτιδος.

2 Λυπεῖσθε ἐφʼ ἑαυτοὺς, ἀπολεῖται γὰρ καὶ Δηβὼν, οὗ ὁ βωμὸς ὑμῶν· ἐκεῖ ἀναβήσεσθε κλαίειν, ἐπὶ Ναβαῦ τῆς Μωαβίτιδος· ὀλολύξατε, ἐπὶ πάσης κεφαλῆς φαλάκρωμα, πάντες βραχίονες κατατετμημένοι.

3 Ἐν ταῖς πλατείαις αὐτῆς περιζώσασθε σάκκους, καὶ κόπτεσθε ἐπὶ τῶν δωμάτων αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐν ταῖς ῥύμαις αὐτῆς, πάντες ὀλολύζετε μετὰ κλαυθμοῦ.

4 Ὅτι κέκραγεν Ἐσεβὼν καὶ Ἐλεαλὴ, ἕως Ἰασσὰ ἠκούσθη ἡ φωνὴ αὐτῶν· διατοῦτο ἡ ὀσφὺς τῆς Μωαβίτιδος βοᾷ, ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτῆς γνώσεται.

5 Ἡ καρδία τῆς Μωαβείτιδος βοᾷ ἐν αὐτῇ ἕως Σηγώρ· δάμαλις γάρ ἐστι τριετής· ἐπὶ δὲ τῆς ἀναβάσεως Λουεὶθ, πρὸς σὲ κλαίοντες ἀναβήσονται τῇ ὁδῷ Ἀρωνιείμ· βοᾷ, σύντριμμα καὶ σεισμός.

6 Τὸ ὕδωρ τῆς Νεμηρεὶμ ἔρημον ἔσται, καὶ ὁ χόρτος αὐτῆς ἐκλείψει· χόρτος γὰρ χλωρὸς οὐκ ἔσται.

7 Μὴ καὶ οὕτως μέλλει σωθῇναι; ἐπάξω γὰρ ἐπὶ τὴν φάραγγα Ἄραβας, καὶ λήψονται αὐτήν.

8 Συνῆψε γὰρ ἡ βοὴ τὸ ὅριον τῆς Μωαβίτιδος τῆς Ἀγαλεὶμ, καὶ ὀλολυγμὸς αὐτῆς ἕως τοῦ φρέατος τοῦ Αἰλείμ.

9 Τὸ δὲ ὕδωρ τὸ Δειμὼν πλησθήσεται αἵματος, ἐπάξω γὰρ ἐπὶ Δειμὼν Ἄραβας, καὶ ἀρῶ τὸ σπέρμα Μωὰβ, καὶ Ἀριὴλ, καὶ τὸ κατάλοιπον Ἄδαμὰ.

1 The Word against the Land of Moab. By night the land of Moab shall be destroyed; for by night the wall of the land of Moab shall be destroyed.

2 Grieve for yourselves; for even Debon, where your altar is, shall be destroyed: thither shall ye go up to weep, over Nabau of the land of Moab: howl ye: baldness shall be on every head, and all arms shall be wounded.

cut to pieces.

3 Gird yourselves with sackcloth in her streets: and lament upon her roofs, and in her streets, and in her ways; howl all of you with weeping.

4 For Esebon and Eleale have cried: their voice was heard to Jassa: therefore the loins of the region of Moab cry aloud; her soul shall know.

5 The heart of the region of Moab cries within her to Segor; for it is as a heifer of three years old: and on the ascent of Luith they shall go up to thee weeping by the way of Aroniim: she cries, Destruction, and trembling.

6 The water of Nemerim shall be desolate, and the grass thereof shall fail: for there shall be no green grass.

7 Shall Moab even thus be delivered? for I will bring the Arabians upon the valley, and they shall take it.

8 For the cry has reached the border of the region of Moab, even of Agalim; and her howling has gone as far as the well of Ælim.

9 And the water of Dimon shall be filled with blood: for I will bring Arabians upon Dimon, and I will take away the seed of Moab, and Ariel, and the remnant of Adama.
