Isaiah 16 - New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition 2021(NRSVUE)

Isaiah 16

1

11 Isa 15.5; 63.15; Jer 48.36 Therefore my heart moans like a harp for Moab

and my very soul for Kir-heres.

12 1 Kings 18.29; 2 Kings 19.12; Isa 15.2; Jer 48.35 When Moab presents himself, when he wearies himself upon the high place, when he comes to his sanctuary to pray, he will not prevail.

13This was the word that the Lord spoke concerning Moab in the past.

14Isa 21.16; 25.10But now the Lord says, “In three years, like the years of a hired worker, the glory of Moab will be brought into contempt, in spite of all its great multitude, and those who survive will be very few and feeble.”
