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)
