and the sky above will grow black.

like dust blowing in front of a burning east wind.

when disaster strikes them.”

Oh, how her people will wail!
Oh, how she will turn away in shame!
Moab will become an object of ridicule,
a terrifying sight to all the nations that surround her.”

you people who live in Dedan.

they will turn their faces toward it.
They will come and bind themselves to the Lord
in a lasting covenant that will never be forgotten.
