How is it broken down! [how] do they wail! how has Mo'av turned the back with shame! so shall Mo'av become a derision and a terror to all who are round about him.
How the city sits solitary, that was full of people! She has become as a widow, who was great among the nations! She who was a princess among the provinces is become tributary!
How has the Lord covered the daughter of Tziyon with a cloud in his anger! He has cast down from heaven to the earth the beauty of Yisra'el, And hasn't remembered his footstool in the day of his anger.
