Isaiah 16:6-8
New King James Version
Isaiah 16:6-8
New King James Version
6 We have heard of the (A)pride of Moab—
He is very proud—
Of his haughtiness and his pride and his wrath;
(B)But his [a]lies shall not be so.
7 Therefore Moab shall (C)wail for Moab;
Everyone shall wail.
For the foundations (D)of Kir Hareseth you shall mourn;
Surely they are stricken.
8 For (E)the fields of Heshbon languish,
And (F)the vine of Sibmah;
The lords of the nations have broken down its choice plants,
Which have reached to Jazer
And wandered through the wilderness.
Her branches are stretched out,
They are gone over the (G)sea.

Isaiah 16:6-8
New International Version
6 We have heard of Moab’s(A) pride(B)—
how great is her arrogance!—
of her conceit, her pride and her insolence;
but her boasts are empty.
7 Therefore the Moabites wail,(C)
they wail together for Moab.
Lament and grieve
for the raisin cakes(D) of Kir Hareseth.(E)
8 The fields of Heshbon(F) wither,(G)
the vines of Sibmah(H) also.
The rulers of the nations
have trampled down the choicest vines,(I)
which once reached Jazer(J)
and spread toward the desert.
Their shoots spread out(K)
and went as far as the sea.[a](L)
