Moab Will Be Punished

15 (A) This is a message about Moab:

The towns of Ar and Kir
were destroyed in a night.
    Moab is left in ruins!
2 Everyone in Dibon has gone up
to the temple[a] and the shrines
    to cry and weep.
All of Moab is crying.
Heads and beards are shaved[b]
    because of what happened
    at Nebo and Medeba.
