ISAIAH 16

THE FATE OF THE MOABITES  

Isaiah’s oracle against Moab continues, predicting that in three years the Moabites will be devastated because of their pride and arrogance. Moab, once regarded for its riches and abundance, will soon be known for nothing.

God is mourned by the fate of the Moabites. Although God enacts justice over Moab, He is also compassionate and grieved by their pain.
