2 He has gone up to The House and to Diʹbon,*+ to the high places, to a weeping. Over Neʹbo+ and over Medʹe·ba+ Moʹab itself howls. On all heads in it there is baldness;+ every beard is clipped.

6 And they will certainly die, the great ones and the small ones, in this land. They will not be buried,+ neither will people beat themselves for them, nor will anyone make cuts upon himself+ or make himself bald for them.+

16 Cause baldness, and shear [your hair] off on account of your sons of exquisite delight.+ Broaden out your baldness like [that of] the eagle, because they have gone away from you into exile.”+
