Jeremiah 48:26-35

26Make ye him drunkenH7937: for he magnifiedH1431 himself against YhwhH3068: MoabH4124 also shall wallowH5606 in his vomitH6892, and he also shall be in derisionH7814. 27For was not IsraelH3478 a derisionH7814 unto thee? was he foundH4672 among thievesH1590? for sinceH1767 thou spakestH1697 of him, thou skippedstH5110 for joy.1 28O ye that dwellH3427 in MoabH4124, leaveH5800 the citiesH5892, and dwellH7931 in the rockH5553, and be like the doveH3123 that maketh her nestH7077 in the sidesH5676 of the hole’sH6354 mouthH6310. 29We have heardH8085 the prideH1347 of MoabH4124, (he is exceedingH3966 proudH1343) his loftinessH1363, and his arrogancyH1346, and his prideH1347, and the haughtinessH7312 of his heartH3820. 30I knowH3045 his wrathH5678, saithH5002 YhwhH3068; but it shall not be so; his liesH907 shall not so effectH6213 it.2 31Therefore will I howlH3213 for MoabH4124, and I will cry outH2199 for all MoabH4124; mine heart shall mournH1897 for the menH582 of Kir–heresH7025. 32O vineH1612 of SibmahH7643, I will weepH1058 for thee with the weepingH1065 of JazerH3270: thy plantsH5189 are gone overH5674 the seaH3220, they reachH5060 even to the seaH3220 of JazerH3270: the spoilerH7703 is fallenH5307 upon thy summer fruitsH7019 and upon thy vintageH1210. 33And joyH8057 and gladnessH1524 is takenH622 from the plentiful fieldH3759, and from the landH776 of MoabH4124; and I have caused wineH3196 to failH7673 from the winepressesH3342: none shall treadH1869 with shoutingH1959; their shoutingH1959 shall be no shoutingH1959. 34From the cryH2201 of HeshbonH2809 even unto ElealehH500, and even unto JahazH3096, have they utteredH5414 their voiceH6963, from ZoarH6820 even unto HoronaimH2773, as an heiferH5697 of three years oldH7992: for the watersH4325 also of NimrimH5249 shall be desolateH4923.3 35Moreover I will cause to ceaseH7673 in MoabH4124, saithH5002 YhwhH3068, him that offerethH5927 in the high placesH1116, and him that burneth incenseH6999 to his godsH430.
