Isaiah 16 Moab Destroyed

Isaiah 16:1-14 Moab Destroyed

Isaiah 16:3-5
3
“Take counsel, execute judgment;
Make your shadow like the night in the middle of the day;
Hide the outcasts,
Do not betray him who escapes.
4
Let My outcasts dwell with you, O Moab;
Be a shelter to them from the face of the spoiler (devastator).
For the extortioner is at an end,
Devastation ceases,
The oppressors are consumed out of the land.
5
In mercy the throne will be established;
And One will sit on it in truth, in the tabernacle of David,
Judging and seeking justice and hastening righteousness.”

Isaiah 16:12
12
And it shall come to pass,
When it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place,
That he will come to his sanctuary to pray;
But he will not prevail.

Isaiah 16:13
13 This is the word which the Lord has spoken concerning Moab since that time. 14 But now the Lord has spoken, saying, “Within three years, as the years of a hired man, the glory of Moab will be despised with all that great multitude, and the remnant will be very small and feeble.”
