Judgment on Judah and Israel 1Thus says the LORD, “For three transgressions of Moab and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because he burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime.
2“So I will send fire upon Moab
3“I will also cut off the judge from her midst
4Thus says the LORD,
5“So I will send fire upon Judah
6Thus says the LORD,
7“These who pant after the very dust of the earth on the head of the helpless
8“On garments taken as pledges they stretch out beside every altar,
9“Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them,
10“It was I who brought you up from the land of Egypt,
11“Then I raised up some of your sons to be prophets
12“But you made the Nazirites drink wine,
13“Behold, I am weighted down beneath you
14“Flight will perish from the swift,
15“He who grasps the bow will not stand his ground, 16“Even the bravest among the warriors will flee naked in that day,” declares the LORD.
