Isaiah 16:12

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

When Moab appears on the high place, when he wearies himself and enters his sanctuary to pray, it will do him no good.

In context

10 Joy and gladness are removed from the orchard; no one sings or shouts in the vineyards. No one tramples the grapes in the winepresses; I have put an end to the cheering.

11 Therefore my heart laments for Moab like a harp, my inmost being for Kir-heres.

12 When Moab appears on the high place, when he wearies himself and enters his sanctuary to pray, it will do him no good.

13 This is the message that the LORD spoke earlier concerning Moab.

14 And now the LORD says, “In three years, as a hired worker counts the years, Moab’s splendor will become an object of contempt, with all her many people. And those who are left will be few and feeble.”
