¹

Τὸ ρῆμα τὸ κατὰ τῆς Μωαβίτιδος. ΝΥΚΤΟΣ ἀπολεῖται ἡ Μωαβῖτις, νυκτὸς γὰρ ἀπολεῖται τὸ τεῖχος τῆς Μωαβίτιδος.

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

λυπεῖσθε ἐφ᾿ ἑαυτοῖς, ἀπολεῖται γὰρ καὶ Δηβών, οὗ ὁ βωμὸς ὑμῶν, ἐκεῖ ἀναβήσεσθε κλαίειν· ἐπὶ Ναβαῦ τῆς Μωαβίτιδος ὀλολύζετε ἐπὶ πάσης κεφαλῆς φαλάκρωμα, πάντες βραχίονες κατατετμημένοι·

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.

³

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

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

ὅτι κέκραγεν ᾿Εσεβὼν καὶ ᾿Ελεαλή, ἕως ᾿Ιασσὰ ἠκούσθη ἡ φωνὴ αὐτῶν· διὰ τοῦτο ἡ ὀσφὺς τῆς Μωαβίτιδος βοᾷ, ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτῆς γνώσεται.

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

ἡ καρδία τῆς Μωαβίτιδος βοᾷ ἐν αὐτῇ ἕως Σηγώρ· δάμαλις γάρ ἐστι τριετής· ἐπὶ δὲ τῆς ἀναβάσεως Λουεὶθ πρός σε κλαίοντες ἀναβήσονται, τῇ ὁδῷ ᾿Αρωνιεὶμ βοᾷ σύντριμμα καὶ σεισμός.

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

τὸ ὕδωρ τῆς Νεμρεὶμ ἔρημον ἔσται, καὶ ὁ χόρτος αὐτῆς ἐκλείψει· χόρτος γὰρ χλωρὸς οὐκ ἔσται.

⁶

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

⁷

μὴ καὶ οὕτως μέλει σωθῆναι; ἐπάξω γὰρ ἐπὶ τὴν φάραγγα ῎Αραβας, καὶ λήψονται αὐτήν.

⁷

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

⁸

συνῆψε γὰρ ἡ βοὴ τὸ ὅριον τῆς Μωαβίτιδος τῆς ᾿Αγαλείμ, καὶ ὀλολυγμὸς αὐτῆς ἕως τοῦ φρέατος τοῦ Αἰλείμ.

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

τὸ δὲ ὕδωρ τὸ Ρεμμὼν πλησθήσεται αἵματος· ἐπάξω γὰρ ἐπὶ Ρεμμὼν ῎Αραβας καὶ ἀρῶ τὸ σπέρμα Μωὰβ καὶ ᾿Αριὴλ καὶ τὸ κατάλοιπον ᾿Αδαμά.

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.
