Isaiah 15:6-9
New International Version
Isaiah 15:6-9
New International Version
6 The waters of Nimrim are dried up(A)
and the grass is withered;(B)
the vegetation is gone(C)
and nothing green is left.(D)
7 So the wealth they have acquired(E) and stored up
they carry away over the Ravine of the Poplars.
8 Their outcry echoes along the border of Moab;
their wailing reaches as far as Eglaim,
their lamentation as far as Beer(F) Elim.
9 The waters of Dimon[a] are full of blood,
but I will bring still more upon Dimon[b]—
a lion(G) upon the fugitives of Moab(H)
and upon those who remain in the land.

Isaiah 15:6-9
King James Version
Isaiah 15:6-9
King James Version
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.

New King James Version
Isaiah 15:6-9
New King James Version
6 For the waters (A)of Nimrim will be desolate,
For the green grass has withered away;
The grass fails, there is nothing green.
7 Therefore the abundance they have gained,
And what they have laid up,
They will carry away to the Brook of the Willows.
8 For the cry has gone all around the borders of Moab,
Its wailing to Eglaim
And its wailing to Beer Elim.
9 For the waters of [a]Dimon will be full of blood;
Because I will bring more upon Dimon,
(B)Lions upon him who escapes from Moab,
And on the remnant of the land.”
