Isaiah 15:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 Mine [a]heart shall cry for Moab: his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, [b]an heifer of three years old: for they shall go up with weeping by the mounting up of Luhith: and by the way of Horonaim they [c]shall raise up a cry of destruction.
6 For the waters of Nimrim shall be dried up: therefore the grass is withered, the herbs consumed, and there was no green herb.
7 Therefore what every man hath left, and their substance shall they bear to the [d]brook of the willows.
