Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.
Put salt on Moab, for she will be laid waste; her cities will become desolate, with no one to dwell in them.
Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon, come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon thee, and he shall destroy thy strong holds.
Come down from your glory; sit on parched ground, O daughter dwelling in Dibon, for the destroyer of Moab has come against you; he has destroyed your fortresses.
