Isaiah 15: Prophecy against Moab

 In Isaiah 15 we see a prophecy against Moab. Cities of Moab will be destroyed. People will be crying at the temple of Dibon (v2). Although Moab is idolatrous, Isaiah laments:


4 Heshbon and Elealeh also cry out,

Their voice is heard all the way to Jahaz;

Therefore the [d]armed men of Moab cry aloud;

His soul trembles within him.

5 My heart cries out for Moab;


Isaiah has compassion of Moabe. The Lord says:


9 I will certainly bring added woes upon Dimon,

A lion upon the fugitives of Moab and the remnant of the land. 


Certainly the Lord wants me to have mercy of people suffering, not only Jews but even Muslims in the Israel/Hamas war.
