15 Lamentations

13 Isaiah 15:1-16:0
¹A burden concerning the fall of Moab. Because in the night the city of Moab is plundered and brought to silence; because in the night the defenses of Moab are despoiled and brought to silence;
²they have gone up to the house of Dibon, to the high places, to weep; Moab will howl over Nebo and over Medeba; on all their heads will be baldness, and every beard cut off.
³In their streets they will gird themselves with sackcloth; on the housetops and in their streets everyone will howl, weeping vehemently.
⁴Heshbon will cry, and Elealeh; their voice will be heard as far as Jahaz; therefore the armed soldiers of Moab will cry out; his soul will howl for him.
⁵My heart will cry out for Moab; they will howl as they flee to Zoar, as far as Eglath Shelishiyah. For by the ascent of Luhith they will go up with weeping; and in the way of Horonaim they will raise up a cry of destruction.
⁶For the waters of Nimrim will be desolate; for the vegetation is withered away, and the green grass is dried up, there is no green thing.
⁷Therefore what was left is gone, and what they have stored they will carry away over the brook of willows.
⁸For the cry is gone around the borders of Moab; its howling as far as Eglaim, and its howling to Beer Elim.
⁹For the waters of Dibon are full of blood; and I will bring more on Dibon, and I will plot against those who escape of Moab, and against the remnant of the land.

15 Lamentations 1:1
¹How does the city sit solitary that was full of people. How is she become like a widow. She that was so great among the nations, and she that was a princess of the cities has become a tributary.

15 Lamentations 1:2
²She weeps bitterly in the night, and her tears run on her cheeks; among all her lovers, she has no one to comfort her; all her friends have dealt treacherously with her, they have become her enemies.
