“Wail, O Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste!
    Cry, O daughters of Rabbah!
Gird yourselves with sackcloth,
    lament, and run to and fro among the hedges!
For Milcom shall go into exile,
    with his priests and his princes.
Why do you boast of your valleys,[a]
    O faithless daughter,
who trusted in her treasures, saying,
    ‘Who will come against me?’
Behold, I will bring terror upon you,
    says the Lord God of hosts,
    from all who are round about you,
and you shall be driven out, every man straight before him,
    with none to gather the fugitives.
