Isaiah 16:1 - The Message

"Dispatch a gift of lambs," says Moab, "to the leaders in Jerusalem—
Lambs from Sela sent across the desert
   to buy the goodwill of Jerusalem.
The towns and people of Moab
   are at a loss,
New-hatched birds knocked from the nest,
   fluttering helplessly
At the banks of the Arnon River,
   unable to cross:
’Tell us what to do,
   help us out!
Protect us,
   hide us!
Give the refugees from Moab
   sanctuary with you.
Be a safe place for those on the run
   from the killing fields.’"
