“For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.”
For the waters of Dimon are full of blood; for I will bring more upon Dimon, even lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land—the final clause of the oracle against Moab, with the waters turning to blood (indicating violence and slaughter) and the additional threat of lions against refugees. The surplus judgment even beyond the initial devastation suggests the ruthlessness of God's response. This verse concludes the oracle against Moab with imagery of blood and continued threat.
