Against Moav thus saith Hashem Tzva'os Elohei Yisroel: Hoy (woe, doom) unto Nevo! For it is made havoc; Kiryatayim is shamed and captured; Misgav is shamed and dismayed.
There shall be no more tehillah (praise) of Moav; in Cheshbon they have plotted ra'ah against it; come, and let us cut it off from being a nation. Also thou shalt be silenced, O Madmein; the cherev shall pursue thee.
A voice of crying shall be from Choronayim, havoc and shever gadol (great destruction).
Moav is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
For in the Ascent of Luchit continual weeping shall go up; for in the descent of Choronayim the anguished ones have heard a cry of shever (destruction).
Flee, save your nefesh, and be like Aroer in the midbar.
For because thou hast trusted in thy ma'asim (works) and in thy otzarot, thou shalt also be captured; and Chemosh shall go forth into Golus with his kohanim and his sarim together.

And the destroyer shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape: the emek (valley) also shall perish, and the plain shall be shmad (destroyed), as Hashem hath spoken.

תְּנוּ־ Put צִ֣יץ SDBH salt לְמוֹאָ֔ב SDBH on Moab כִּ֥י for נָצֹ֖א SDBH she will be laid waste תֵּצֵ֑א SDBH . . . וְעָרֶ֙יהָ֙ SDBH her cities לְשַׁמָּ֣ה SDBH desolate תִֽהְיֶ֔ינָה will become מֵאֵ֥ין SDBH with no one יוֹשֵׁ֖ב SDBH to dwell בָּהֵֽן׃ in them
Give wings unto Moav, that it may flee and get away; for the towns thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.
10
אָר֗וּר SDBH Cursed [is the one] עֹשֶׂ֛ה SDBH in doing מְלֶ֥אכֶת SDBH the work יְהוָ֖ה SDBH Hashem/Adonoi רְמִיָּ֑ה SDBH who is remiss וְאָר֕וּר SDBH and cursed is מֹנֵ֥עַ SDBH he who withholds חַרְבּ֖וֹ SDBH his sword מִדָּֽם׃ SDBH from bloodshed
Cursed be he that doeth the work of Hashem remiyyah (deceitfully), and cursed be he that keepeth back his cherev from bloodshed.

שַׁאֲנַ֨ן SDBH has been at ease מוֹאָ֜ב SDBH Moab מִנְּעוּרָ֗יו SDBH from youth וְשֹׁקֵ֥ט SDBH settled הוּא֙ SDBH . . . אֶל־ like wine שְׁמָרָ֔יו SDBH on its dregs וְלֹֽא־ SDBH he has not הוּרַ֤ק SDBH been poured מִכְּלִי֙ SDBH from vessel אֶל־ to כֶּ֔לִי SDBH vessel וּבַגּוֹלָ֖ה SDBH into exile לֹ֣א SDBH [or] הָלָ֑ךְ SDBH gone עַל־ So כֵּ֗ן SDBH . . . עָמַ֤ד SDBH has remained the same טַעְמוֹ֙ SDBH his flavor בּ֔וֹ וְרֵיח֖וֹ SDBH and his aroma לֹ֥א SDBH vvv נָמָֽר׃ס SDBH is unchanged
Moav hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his wine dregs, and hath not been emptied from keli (vessel) to keli, neither hath he gone into Golus: therefore his taste remained in him, and his scent is not changed.
12
לָכֵ֞ן SDBH Therefore הִנֵּ֖ה־ behold יָמִ֤ים SDBH the days בָּאִים֙ SDBH are coming נְאֻם־ SDBH declares יְהוָ֔ה SDBH Hashem/Adonoi וְשִׁלַּחְתִּי־ SDBH when I will send ל֥וֹ to him צֹעִ֖ים SDBH wanderers וְצֵעֻ֑הוּ SDBH who will pour him out וְכֵלָ֣יו SDBH his vessels יָרִ֔יקוּ SDBH They will empty וְנִבְלֵיהֶ֖ם SDBH his jars יְנַפֵּֽצוּ׃ SDBH and shatter
But, hinei, the days come, saith Hashem, that I will send unto him wine pourers, that shall pour him out, and shall empty his kelim (vessels), and smash their jars.
And Moav shall be ashamed of Chemosh, just as Bais Yisroel was ashamed of Beit-El, their confidence.
How say ye, We are gibborim and anshei chayil for the milchamah?
15
שֻׁדַּ֤ד SDBH has been destroyed מוֹאָב֙ SDBH Moab וְעָרֶ֣יהָ SDBH and its towns עָלָ֔ה SDBH have been invaded וּמִבְחַ֥ר SDBH the best בַּֽחוּרָ֖יו SDBH of its young men יָרְד֣וּ SDBH have gone down לַטָּ֑בַח SDBH in the slaughter נְאֻ֨ם־ SDBH declares הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ SDBH the King יְהוָ֥ה SDBH Hashem/Adonoi צְבָא֖וֹת SDBH of Hosts שְׁמֽוֹ׃ SDBH whose name
Moav is destroyed, and gone up out of her towns, and his chosen bochurim are gone down to the slaughter, saith HaMelech Hashem Tzva'os Shmo.
16
קָר֥וֹב SDBH is at hand אֵיד־ SDBH calamity מוֹאָ֖ב SDBH Moab’s לָב֑וֹא SDBH . . . וְרָ֣עָת֔וֹ SDBH and his affliction מִהֲרָ֖ה SDBH is rushing מְאֹֽד׃ swiftly
The calamity of Moav is near at hand, and his affliction hasteth fast.

All ye that are around him, bemoan him; and all ye that know shmo, say, How is the matteh oz (strong staff) broken, and the beautiful rod!
18
רְדִ֤י SDBH Come down מִכָּבוֹד֙ SDBH from your glory יֹשְׁבֶי SDBH sit בַצָּמָ֔א SDBH on parched ground יֹשֶׁ֖בֶת SDBH dwelling בַּת־ SDBH O daughter דִּיב֑וֹן SDBH in Dibon כִּֽי־ for שֹׁדֵ֤ד SDBH the destroyer מוֹאָב֙ SDBH of Moab עָ֣לָה SDBH has come בָ֔ךְ against you שִׁחֵ֖ת SDBH he has destroyed מִבְצָרָֽיִךְ׃ SDBH your fortresses
Thou Bat that dost inhabit Divon, come down from thy kavod, and sit on parched ground; for the plunderer of Moav shall come upon thee, and he shall destroy thy strongholds.
O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the derech, and watch; ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth, and say, What has happened?
Moav is shamed; for it is broken down: wail and cry out; tell ye it in Arnon, that Moav is destroyed,
And mishpat is come upon the plain; upon Cholon, and upon Yahtzah, and upon Mepha'at,
And upon Divon, and upon Nevo, and upon BeitDivlatayim,
And upon Kiryatayim, and upon Beit-Gamul, and upon Beit-Me'on,
And upon Keriot, and upon Botzrah, and upon all the towns of Eretz Moav, far or near.
The keren of Moav is cut off, and his zero'a is broken, saith Hashem.
26
הַשְׁכִּירֻ֕הוּ SDBH Make him drunk כִּ֥י because עַל־ against יְהוָ֖ה SDBH Hashem/Adonoi הִגְדִּ֑יל SDBH he has magnified himself וְסָפַ֤ק SDBH will wallow מוֹאָב֙ SDBH so Moab בְּקִיא֔וֹ SDBH in his own vomit וְהָיָ֥ה become לִשְׂחֹ֖ק SDBH a laughingstock גַּם־ SDBH will also הֽוּא׃ SDBH and he
Make ye him drunken; for he magnified himself against Hashem; Moav also shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
27
וְאִ֣ם׀ SDBH - ל֣וֹא SDBH not הַשְּׂחֹ֗ק SDBH object of ridicule הָיָ֤ה Was לְךָ֙ your יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל SDBH Israel אִם־ SDBH בְּגַנָּבִ֖ים SDBH - נִמְצָאָה SDBH Was he ever found [among thieves] כִּֽי־ For מִדֵּ֧י SDBH whenever דְבָרֶ֥יךָ SDBH you speak of him בּ֖וֹ תִּתְנוֹדָֽד׃ SDBH you shake your head
For was not Yisroel a derision unto thee? Was he found among ganavim (thieves)? For since thou spoke of him, thou dost scornful head wagging.
O ye that dwell in Moav, leave the towns, and dwell in the rock, and be like the yonah that maketh her nest in the sides of the cave's mouth.
29
We have heard the ga'on Moav, (he is exceeding proud), his highmindedness, and his conceit, and his ga'avah, and the haughtiness of his lev.
30
I know his insolence, saith Hashem; but it shall not be so; his boasts have made nothing right.
Therefore will I wail for Moav, and I will cry out for all Moav; I shall moan for the anashim of Kir- Cheres.
32
מִבְּכִ֨י SDBH more than I weep יַעְזֵ֤ר SDBH for Jazer אֶבְכֶּה־ SDBH I will weep לָּךְ֙ for you הַגֶּ֣פֶן SDBH O vine שִׂבְמָ֔ה SDBH of Sibmah נְטִֽישֹׁתַ֙יִךְ֙ SDBH Your tendrils עָ֣בְרוּ SDBH have extended יָ֔ם SDBH to the sea עַ֛ד SDBH [even] to יָ֥ם SDBH - יַעְזֵ֖ר SDBH Jazer נָגָ֑עוּ SDBH they reach עַל־ on קֵיצֵ֥ךְ SDBH your summer fruit וְעַל־ . . . בְּצִירֵ֖ךְ SDBH and grape harvest שֹׁדֵ֥ד SDBH The destroyer נָפָֽל׃ SDBH has descended
O gefen (vine) of Sivmah, I will weep for thee with the weeping of Yazer; thy branches are spread over the yam, they reach even to the yam Yazer; the plunderer is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.
33
וְנֶאֶסְפָ֨ה SDBH are removed שִׂמְחָ֥ה SDBH Joy וָגִ֛יל SDBH and gladness מִכַּרְמֶ֖ל SDBH from the orchard וּמֵאֶ֣רֶץ SDBH and from the fields מוֹאָ֑ב SDBH of Moab וְיַ֙יִן֙ SDBH the flow of wine מִיקָבִ֣ים SDBH from the presses הִשְׁבַּ֔תִּי SDBH I have stopped לֹֽא־ SDBH no one יִדְרֹ֣ךְ SDBH treads them הֵידָ֔ד SDBH with shouts of joy הֵידָ֖ד SDBH their shouts לֹ֥א SDBH are not הֵידָֽד׃ SDBH for joy
And simchah and gladness is taken from the carmel, and from Eretz Moav, and I have caused yayin to fail from the winepresses; none shall tread with shouting; their shouting shall not be [joyful] shouting.
From the cry of Cheshbon even unto Elealeh, and even unto Yahatz, have they uttered their voice, from Tzoar even unto Choronayim, as Eglat-Shlishiyah; for the mayim also of Nimrim shall be dried up.
35
וְהִשְׁבַּתִּ֥י SDBH I will bring an end לְמוֹאָ֖ב SDBH In Moab נְאֻם־ SDBH declares יְהוָ֑ה SDBH Hashem/Adonoi מַעֲלֶ֣ה SDBH to those who make offerings בָמָ֔ה SDBH on the high places וּמַקְטִ֖יר SDBH and burn incense לֵאלֹהָֽיו׃ SDBH to their g-ds
Moreover I will cause to cease in Moav, saith Hashem, him that offereth in the high places, and him that burneth ketoret to his elohim.
Therefore Mine lev shall wail for Moav like flutes, and Mine lev shall wail like flutes for the anashim of Kir-Cheres; because the riches that he hath gotten are perished.
For every rosh shall be shaved, and every zakan (beard) cut: upon all the hands shall be slashes, and upon the loins sackcloth.
There shall be lamentation generally upon all the gagot (roofs) of Moav, and in the streets thereof; for I have broken Moav like a keli (vessel) wherein is no chefets (pleasure) saith Hashem.
They shall wail, saying, How is it shattered! How hath Moav turned the back with shame! So shall Moav be a laughingstock and a horror to all them about him.
For thus saith Hashem; Hinei, one shall fly like the nesher, and shall spread his wings over Moav.
Keriot is captured, and the strongholds are taken, and the lev gibborim in Moav at that day shall be as the lev isha in her birth pangs.
42
וְנִשְׁמַ֥ד SDBH will be destroyed מוֹאָ֖ב SDBH Moab מֵעָ֑ם SDBH as a nation כִּ֥י because עַל־ against יְהוָ֖ה SDBH Hashem/Adonoi הִגְדִּֽיל׃ SDBH he vaunted himself
And Moav shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against Hashem.
Pachad (fear), and the pakhat (pit), and the pach (snare), shall be upon thee, O inhabitant of Moav, saith Hashem.
He that fleeth from the pachad (terror) shall fall into the pakhat (pit); and he that getteth up out of the pakhat shall be caught in the pach (snare); for I will bring upon it, even upon Moav, the shnat (year of) their pekuddat (visitation), saith Hashem.
They that fled stood under the tzel (shadow) of Cheshbon without ko'ach; for an eish shall come forth out of Cheshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sichon, and shall devour the forehead of Moav, and the crown of the head of the bnei sha'on (sons of tumult).
46
אוֹי־ SDBH Woe לְךָ֣ to you מוֹאָ֔ב SDBH O Moab אָבַ֖ד SDBH have perished עַם־ SDBH The people כְּמ֑וֹשׁ SDBH of Chemosh כִּֽי־ for לֻקְּח֤וּ SDBH have been taken בָנֶ֙יךָ֙ SDBH your sons בַּשֶּׁ֔בִי SDBH into exile וּבְנֹתֶ֖יךָ SDBH and your daughters בַּשִּׁבְיָֽה׃ SDBH have gone into captivity
Oy be unto thee, O Moav! The people of Chemosh perisheth; for thy banim are taken captives, and thy banot into captivity.
Yet will I bring again the captives of Moav in the acharit hayamim, saith Hashem. Hinei, the mishpat Moav (judgment of Moab).
