The XV. Chapter.
A noteThis is þe; heuy burth&ebar; vp&obar; Moab: Ar of
Moab was destroyed (as me thought)
in the night season: The walles of Moab perished
in the night, ∧ vanished awaye: They
w&ebar;te to Baith and Dibon in the hie places,
for to wepe: Moab did mourne fr&obar; Nebo to
Medba: All their heades were colled, and al
their beardes shauen. noteIn their stretes were
they gyrded aboute with sack cloth. In all
the toppes of their houses ∧ stretes was there
nothinge, but mournynge and wepinge.
Hesebon and Eleale cried, that their voyce
was herde vnto Iahaz.
B The worthies also
of Moab bleared and cried for very sorow
of their myndes: Wo is my hert for Moabs
sake. They fled vnto the cite of Zoar, which
is like a fayre fruteful bullock, they went vp
to Luhith, wepinge. The waye toward Horonaim
was ful of lamentacion for þe; hurte.
The waters of Nimrim were dried vp, the
grasse was wythred, the herbes destroyed, ∧
what necessary grene thinge there was besyde.
In like maner the thinge þt; was left them
of their substaunce, they caried it by water to
Araby.
C The crie went ouer the whole londe
of Moab: from Eglaim vnto Beer, was
there nothinge but mouanynge. The waters
of Dimon were full of bloude, for þe; enemie
had sent thither a bonde of men, which
-- --
as a lyon, layde waite foe the remnaunt of
the londe, and for them þt; were escaped.
