_ _ strong staff ... rod Moab is so called as striking terror into and oppressing other peoples (Isaiah 9:4; Isaiah 14:4, Isaiah 14:5); also because of its dignity and power (Psalms 110:2; Zechariah 11:7). |

- bemoan:
Jeremiah 48:31-33 Therefore will I howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; [mine heart] shall mourn for the men of Kirheres. ... And joy and gladness is taken from the plentiful field, and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses: none shall tread with shouting; [their] shouting [shall be] no shouting. Jeremiah 9:17-20 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Consider ye, and call for the mourning women, that they may come; and send for cunning [women], that they may come: ... Yet hear the word of the LORD, O ye women, and let your ear receive the word of his mouth, and teach your daughters wailing, and every one her neighbour lamentation. Isaiah 16:8 For the fields of Heshbon languish, [and] the vine of Sibmah: the lords of the heathen have broken down the principal plants thereof, they are come [even] unto Jazer, they wandered [through] the wilderness: her branches are stretched out, they are gone over the sea. Revelation 18:14-20 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all. ... Rejoice over her, [thou] heaven, and [ye] holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

- How:
Jeremiah 48:39 They shall howl, [saying], How is it broken down! how hath Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all them about him. Isaiah 9:4 For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian. Isaiah 10:5 O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand is mine indignation. Isaiah 14:4-5 That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased! ... The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, [and] the sceptre of the rulers. Ezekiel 19:11-14 And she had strong rods for the sceptres of them that bare rule, and her stature was exalted among the thick branches, and she appeared in her height with the multitude of her branches. ... And fire is gone out of a rod of her branches, [which] hath devoured her fruit, so that she hath no strong rod [to be] a sceptre to rule. This [is] a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation. Zechariah 11:10-14 And I took my staff, [even] Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people. ... Then I cut asunder mine other staff, [even] Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
