Isaiah 15 from Scroll 1Q Isaiaha 1 The burden of Moab. For in a night, Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to nothing. For in a night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to nothing. 2 They have gone up to Bayith, and to Dibon, to the high places, to weep. Moab
wails over Nebo and over Medeba. Baldness is on all of their heads. Every beard is cut off. 3 In their
streets, they clothe themselves in sackcloth. In their streets and on their
housetops, everyone wails, weeping abundantly. 4 Heshbon cries out with Elealeh. Their voice is
heard even to Jahaz. Therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud. Their souls tremble within them. 5 My
heart cries out for Moab! Her nobles flee to Zoar, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for they go up by the ascent
of Luhith with weeping; for on the way to Horonaim, they raise up a cry of destruction.
6 For the waters of Nimrim will be desolate; for the grass has
withered away, the tender grass fails, there is no
green thing. 7 Therefore they will carry away
the abundance they have gotten, and that which
they have stored up, over the brook of the willows. 8 For the cry
has gone around the borders of Moab; its wailing to Eglaim, and its wailing to
Beer Elim. 9 For the waters of Dimon are full of blood; for I will
bring yet more on Dimon, a lion on those of Moab
who escape,
