Merataplah, hai Hesybon, sebab Ai telah dibinasakan! Berteriaklah, hai kota-kota kecil di sekitar Raba, kenakanlah kain kabung, merataplah, dan berkeliaranlah ke sana kemari di antara pagar-pagar kandang domba! Sebab raja mereka akan pergi ke dalam pembuangan, bersama-sama dengan imam-imamnya dan para pembesarnya.

[Onkelos translates:] “And Esau despised” (Gen. 25:34), ושט עשו.
