“Moab will be ruined and filled with shame.\par Moab will cry and cry.\par Announce at the Arnon River, {\cf2\super [385]} \par that Moab is destroyed.\par
Crying can be heard everywhere in Moab.\par The people are crying\par far away in the city Eglaim.\par And the people are crying\par in the city Beer Elim. {\cf2\super [163]} \par
The women of Moab {\cf2\super [166]} try to cross\par the river Arnon.\par They run from one place to another\par looking for help.\par They are like little birds lost on the ground\par after their nest has fallen from a tree.\par
We defeated the town of Aroer on the edge of the Arnon Valley and the other town in the middle of that valley. The Lord let us defeat all the cities between the Arnon Valley and Gilead. No city was too strong for us.
Their land started at Aroer by the Arnon Ravine and continued to the town in the middle of the ravine. And it included the whole plain from Medeba to Dibon.
The leaders of the people living in the area of Gilead said, “Whoever leads us in the attack against the people of Ammon will become the head of all the people living in Gilead.”
