Jeremiah 48:31–34

Therefore I wail for Moab;

I cry out for all Moab;

for the men of Kir-hareseth I mourn.

More than for Jazer I weep for you,

O vine of Sibmah!

Your branches passed over the sea,

reached to the Sea of Jazer;

on your summer fruits and your grapes

the destroyer has fallen.

Gladness and joy have been taken away

from the fruitful land of Moab;

I have made the wine cease from the winepresses;

no one treads them with shouts of joy;

the shouting is not the shout of joy.

“From the outcry at Heshbon even to Elealeh, as far as Jahaz they utter their voice, from Zoar to Horonaim and Eglath-shelishiyah. For the waters of Nimrim also have become desolate.

Therefore I wail over Moab,

for all Moab I cry out,

I moan for the people of Kir Hareseth.

I weep for you, as Jazer weeps,

you vines of Sibmah.

Your branches spread as far as the sea;

they reached as far as Jazer.

The destroyer has fallen

on your ripened fruit and grapes.

Joy and gladness are gone

from the orchards and fields of Moab.

I have stopped the flow of wine from the presses;

no one treads them with shouts of joy.

Although there are shouts,

they are not shouts of joy.

“The sound of their cry rises

from Heshbon to Elealeh and Jahaz,

from Zoar as far as Horonaim and Eglath Shelishiyah,

for even the waters of Nimrim are dried up.

Therefore, I will wail over Moab.

I will cry out for Moab, all of it;

he will moan for the men of Kir-heres.

I will weep for you, vine of Sibmah,

with more than the weeping for Jazer.

Your tendrils have extended to the sea;

they have reached to the sea and to Jazer.

The destroyer has fallen on your summer fruit and grape harvest.

Gladness and celebration are taken from the fertile field

and from the land of Moab.

I have stopped the flow of wine from the winepresses;

no one will tread with shouts of joy.

The shouting is not a shout of joy.

“There is a cry from Heshbon to Elealeh; they make their voices heard as far as Jahaz —from Zoar to Horonaim and Eglath-shelishiyah—because even the Waters of Nimrim have become desolate.

Therefore over Moab I wail,

and for all of Moab I cry out,

for the people of Kir-heres I moan.

More than the weeping of Jazer

I weep for you, O vine Sibmah.

Your branches cross over the sea,

up to the sea of Jazer they reach.

Upon your summer fruit and upon your vintage

the destroyer has fallen.

And joy and rejoicing have been taken away from the fruitful land,

even from the land of Moab.

And the wine from the wine presses

I have caused to disappear.

He will not tread with exuberant shouts.

Exuberant shouts will not be exuberant shouts.

From the cry for help of Heshbon, up to Elealeh,

up to Jahaz, they give their voice,

from Zoar up to Horonaim, up to Eglath-shelishiyah,

for even the waters of Nimrim have become as a desolation.

Therefore will I howl for Moab,

And I will cry out for all Moab;

Mine heart shall mourn for the men of Kir-heres.

O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for thee with the weeping of Jazer:

Thy plants are gone over the sea,

They reach even to the sea of Jazer:

The spoiler is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.

And joy and gladness is taken from the plentiful field, and from the land of Moab;

And I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses:

None shall tread with shouting;

Their shouting shall be no shouting.

From the cry of Heshbon even unto Elealeh,

And even unto Jahaz, have they uttered their voice,

From Zoar even unto Horonaim,

As an heifer of three years old:

For the waters also of Nimrim shall be desolate.
