15:5 My heart cries out because of Moab’s plight, 1
and for the fugitives 2 stretched out 3 as far as Zoar and Eglath Shelishiyah.
For they weep as they make their way up the ascent of Luhith;
they loudly lament their demise on the road to Horonaim. 4
63:15 Look down from heaven and take notice,
from your holy, majestic palace!
Where are your zeal 5 and power?
Do not hold back your tender compassion! 6

the sound of the battle cry pierces my soul! 11
31:20 Indeed, the people of Israel are my dear children.
They are the children I take delight in. 12
For even though I must often rebuke them,
I still remember them with fondness.
So I am deeply moved with pity for them 13
and will surely have compassion on them.
I, the Lord, affirm it! 14

All my tender compassions are aroused! 17
