Isaiah 16:6 in Context — Isaiah 16

4 Moren contigo mis desterrados, oh Moab; séles escondedero de la presencia del destruidor: porque el atormentador fenecerá, el destruidor tendrá fin, el hollador será consumido de sobre la tierra.

5 Y dispondráse trono en misericordia; y sobre él se sentará firmemente, en el tabernáculo de David, quien juzgue y busque el juicio, y apresure la justicia.

6 Oído hemos la soberbia de Moab, por extremo soberbio; su soberbia y su arrogancia, y su altivez; mas sus mentiras no serán firmes.

7 Por tanto aullará Moab, todo él aullará: gemiréis por los fundamentos de Kir-hareseth, en gran manera heridos.

8 Porque los campos de Hesbón fueron talados, [y] las vides de Sibma; señores de gentes hollaron sus [generosos] sarmientos; habían llegado hasta Jazer, [y] extendídose por el desierto; extendiéronse sus plantas, pasaron la mar.
