Date florem Moab, quia florens egredietur : et civitates ejus desertæ erunt, et inhabitabiles.
Vulgate
καὶ τὸ φρέαρ εἰς ὃ ἔριψεν ἐκεῖ Ἰσμαὴλ πάντας οὓς ἐπάταξεν, φρέαρ μέγα τοῦτό ἐστιν ὃ ἐποίησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἀσὰ ἀπὸ προσώπου Βαασὰ βασιλέως Ἰσραήλ· τοῦτο ἐνέπλησεν Ἰσμαὴλ τραυματιῶν.
LXX
Give wings unto Moab, that she may fly and get her away: and her cities shall become a desolation, without any to dwell therein.
