In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth; on the tops of their houses, and in their broad places, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly—the scene of universal lamentation throughout Moab, with sackcloth worn in the streets and weeping on housetops. The abundance of tears emphasizes the intensity of the mourning. This verse emphasizes the totality of the emotional response to judgment.
