Key Passages
Therefore let Moab wail;let them wail together for Moab.Moan for the raisin cakes of Kir-hareseth,you who are utterly stricken.
For your hands are stained with blood,and your fingers with iniquity;your lips have spoken lies,and your tongue mutters injustice.
Therefore I will wail for Moab;I will cry out for all of Moab;I will moan for the men of Kir-heres.
for their hearts devise violence,and their lips declare trouble.
I remember the days of old;I meditate on all Your works;I consider the work of Your hands.
