“For it will be that as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so will the daughters of Moab be at the fords of the Arnon.”
Verse in context — Isaiah 16
1
Send the lambs for the ruler of the land from Selah to the wilderness, to the mountain of the daughter of Zion.
2
For it will be that as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so will the daughters of Moab be at the fords of the Arnon.
3
Give counsel! Execute justice! Make your shade like the night in the midst of the noonday! Hide the outcasts! Don't betray the fugitive!
4
Let my outcasts dwell with you! As for Moab, be a hiding place for him from the face of the destroyer. For the extortioner is brought to nothing. Destruction ceases. The oppressors are consumed out of the land.
