    whatever remains from the wealth they acquired
    and from the supplies they stored up.

and upon the survivors who remain in the land.

Footnotes

  1. Isaiah 15:7 Probably the ravine on the border between Moab and Edom
  2. Isaiah 15:9 The Hebrew word for blood (dam) sounds like the name of the city of Dimon. Dimon may be a pun on the name Dibon, the capital city of Moab.
