Wail and cry out in mourning!

Announce along the Arnon River

that Moab has been destroyed.’

Context

48:31 So I will weep with sorrow for Moab.

I will cry out in sadness for all of Moab.

1 tc The translation is based on the emendation of the Hebrew third masculine singular (יֶהְגֶּה, yehggeh) to the first singular (אֶהְגֶּה, ’ehgeh). This emendation is assumed by almost all of the modern English versions and commentaries even though the textual evidence for it is weak (only one Hebrew ms and the Eastern Qere according to BHS).
