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.

2So 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.

3And I will destroy their king

and slaughter all their princes,”

says the Lord.

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.

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;

I will cut off the ruler from its midst,

and will kill all its princes with him,”

says the Lord.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

This is what the Lord says:

“For three sins of Moab,

even for four, I will not relent.

Because he burned to ashes

the bones of Edom’s king,

I will send fire on Moab

that will consume the fortresses of Kerioth.

Moab will go down in great tumult

amid war cries and the blast of the trumpet.

I will destroy her ruler

and kill all her officials with him,”

says the Lord.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

The Lord says:

I will not relent from punishing Moab

for three crimes, even four,

because he burned the bones

of the king of Edom to lime.

Therefore, I will send fire against Moab,

and it will consume the citadels of Kerioth.

Moab will die with a tumult,

with shouting and the sound of the trumpet.

I will cut off the judge from the land

and kill all its officials with him.

The Lord has spoken.

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:

And it shall devour the palaces of Kerioth:

And Moab shall die with tumult,

With shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet:

And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof,

And will slay all the princes thereof with him, saith the Lord.
