^8 (A)The destroyer shall come upon every city,
    and no city shall escape;
the valley shall perish,
    and ^(B)the plain shall be destroyed,
    as the Lord has spoken.

^18 (A)“Come down from your glory,
    and sit on the parched ground,
    O inhabitant of ^(B)Dibon!
For the destroyer of Moab has come up against you;
    he has destroyed your strongholds.

²⁰ Moab is put to shame, for it is broken;
    ^(A)wail and cry!
Tell it beside ^(B)the Arnon,
    that ^(C)Moab is laid waste.

Because ^(C)Ar of Moab is laid waste in a night,
    Moab is undone;
because ^(D)Kir of Moab is laid waste in a night,
    Moab is undone.
