Text

1	Thus says the LORD: “For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment, because he burned to lime the bones of the king of Edom.
2	So I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the strongholds of Kerioth, and Moab shall die amid uproar, amid shouting and the sound of the trumpet;
3	I will cut off the ruler from its midst, and will kill all its princes with him,“ says the LORD.
4	Thus says the LORD: “For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment, because they have rejected the law of the LORD, and have not kept his statutes, but their lies have led them astray, those after which their fathers walked.
5	So I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the strongholds of Jerusalem.“
6	Thus says the LORD: “For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment, because they sell the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of sandals-
7	those who trample the head of the poor into the dust of the earth and turn aside the way of the afflicted; a man and his father go in to the same girl, so that my holy name is profaned;
8	they lay themselves down beside every altar on garments taken in pledge, and in the house of their God they drink the wine of those who have been fined.
9	“Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars and who was as strong as the oaks; I destroyed his fruit above and his roots beneath.
10	Also it was I who brought you up out of the land of Egypt and led you forty years in the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
11	And I raised up some of your sons for prophets, and some of your young men for Nazirites. Is it not indeed so, O people of Israel?“ declares the LORD.
12	“But you made the Nazirites drink wine, and commanded the prophets, saying, 'You shall not prophesy.'
13	“Behold, I will press you down in your place, as a cart full of sheaves presses down.
14	Flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not retain his strength, nor shall the mighty save his life;
15	he who handles the bow shall not stand, and he who is swift of foot shall not save himself, nor shall he who rides the horse save his life;
16	and he who is stout of heart among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day,“ declares the LORD.

NIV

1	This is what the LORD says: “For three sins of Moab, even for four, I will not turn back {my wrath}. Because he burned, as if to lime, the bones of Edom's king,
2	I will send fire upon Moab that will consume the fortresses of Kerioth. Moab will go down in great tumult amid war cries and the blast of the trumpet.
3	I will destroy her ruler and kill all her officials with him,“ says the LORD.
4	This is what the LORD says: “For three sins of Judah, even for four, I will not turn back {my wrath}. Because they have rejected the law of the LORD and have not kept his decrees, because they have been led astray by false gods, the gods their ancestors followed,
5	I will send fire upon Judah that will consume the fortresses of Jerusalem.“
6	This is what the LORD says: “For three sins of Israel, even for four, I will not turn back {my wrath}. They sell the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of sandals.
7	They trample on the heads of the poor as upon the dust of the ground and deny justice to the oppressed. Father and son use the same girl and so profane my holy name.
8	They lie down beside every altar on garments taken in pledge. In the house of their god they drink wine taken as fines.
9	“I destroyed the Amorite before them, though he was tall as the cedars and strong as the oaks. I destroyed his fruit above and his roots below.
10	“I brought you up out of Egypt, and I led you forty years in the desert to give you the land of the Amorites.
11	I also raised up prophets from among your sons and Nazirites from among your young men. Is this not true, people of Israel?“ declares the LORD.
12	“But you made the Nazirites drink wine and commanded the prophets not to prophesy.
13	“Now then, I will crush you as a cart crushes when loaded with grain.
14	The swift will not escape, the strong will not muster their strength, and the warrior will not save his life.
15	The archer will not stand his ground, the fleet-footed soldier will not get away, and the horseman will not save his life.
16	Even the bravest warriors will flee naked on that day,“ declares the LORD.

NLT

1	This is what the LORD says: “The people of Moab have sinned again and again, and I will not let them go unpunished! They desecrated the bones of Edom's king, burning them to ashes.
2	So I will send down fire on the land of Moab, and all the fortresses in Kerioth will be destroyed. The people will fall in the noise of battle, as the warriors shout and the ram's horn sounds.
3	And I will destroy their king and slaughter all their princes,“ says the LORD.
4	This is what the LORD says: “The people of Judah have sinned again and again, and I will not let them go unpunished! They have rejected the instruction of the LORD, refusing to obey his decrees. They have been led astray by the same lies that deceived their ancestors.
5	So I will send down fire on Judah, and all the fortresses of Jerusalem will be destroyed.“
6	This is what the LORD says: “The people of Israel have sinned again and again, and I will not let them go unpunished! They sell honorable people for silver and poor people for a pair of sandals.
7	They trample helpless people in the dust and shove the oppressed out of the way. Both father and son sleep with the same woman, corrupting my holy name.
8	At their religious festivals, they lounge in clothing their debtors put up as security. In the house of their god, they drink wine bought with unjust fines.
9	“But as my people watched, I destroyed the Amorites, though they were as tall as cedars and as strong as oaks. I destroyed the fruit on their branches and dug out their roots.
10	It was I who rescued you from Egypt and led you through the desert for forty years, so you could possess the land of the Amorites.
11	I chose some of your sons to be prophets and others to be Nazirites. Can you deny this, my people of Israel?“ asks the LORD.
12	“But you caused the Nazirites to sin by making them drink wine, and you commanded the prophets, 'Shut up!'
13	“So I will make you groan like a wagon loaded down with sheaves of grain.
14	Your fastest runners will not get away. The strongest among you will become weak. Even mighty warriors will be unable to save themselves.
15	The archers will not stand their ground. The swiftest runners won't be fast enough to escape. Even those riding horses won't be able to save themselves.
16	On that day the most courageous of your fighting men will drop their weapons and run for their lives,“ says the LORD.

KJV

1	Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:
2	But I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the palaces of Kerioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet:
3	And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof, and will slay all the princes thereof with him, saith the LORD.
4	Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have despised the law of the LORD, and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after the which their fathers have walked:
5	But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
6	Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes;
7	That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in unto the same maid, to profane my holy name:
8	And they lay themselves down upon clothes laid to pledge by every altar, and they drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god.
9	Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
10	Also I brought you up from the land of Egypt, and led you forty years through the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
11	And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the LORD.
12	But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
13	Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaves.
14	Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself:
15	Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and he that is swift of foot shall not deliver himself: neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself.
16	And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith the LORD.
