1 The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence;
2 He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off.
3 In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly.
4 And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous unto him.
5 My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction.
6 For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away, the grass faileth, there is no green thing.
7 Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows.
8 For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab. The howling thereof unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beerelim.
9 For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.
Isaiah chapter 15 summary
The chapter contains a prophetic message from Isaiah. His prophetic message focuses on the calamity that befalls the nation of Moab. Moab is a neighboring region of the House of Akobe. The Almighty, through Isaiah, foretells the impending devastation and suffering that Moab will endure. This is the cost of their abominations, a consequence of its transgressions and arrogance.
The chapter vividly describes the people of Moab seeking refuge and lamenting the destruction of their cities and strongholds. The Creator’s judgment is depicted as a harsh and inescapable reality for Moab. The sovereignty of the Almighty over all nations, including those beyond the borders of the House of Akobe is emphasized.
Isaiah’s prophecy points out the importance of humility and the consequences of pride. Moab’s fall is attributed to its arrogance and defiance of divine authority. While the chapter foretells Moab’s suffering, it also serves as a reminder of the ultimate power of the Creator. His power to judge and to deliver justice is displayed.
This is the summary of Isaiah chapter 15, Glory to the King of the House of Akobe.
