Isaiah 16:11: "Wherefore my bowels shall sound like an harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kirharesh." ?

flatulence?

You need to read the previous verses to make sense of it.

In foreign language Bibles, the word sound is translated as a shaking, or a moaning -- have you ever had stomach trouble?

You stomach sometimes makes a sound, a moaning and it hurts a little. This moaning like a mournful harp was over Moab; Moab had to be put down, unfortunately. Thus the moaning.

The city mentioned was famous for (7) its raisin cakes. Clearly, these would be missed too. We are not the only ones that like bread and raisins! And, from so many years ago, not much has changed in some ways.

(ASV) Wherefore my heart soundeth like a harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kir-heres.

(BBE) For this cause the cords of my heart are sounding for Moab, and I am full of sorrow for Kir-heres.

(Bishops) Wherfore my bowels shall rumble like an Harpe for Moabs sake, & mine inwarde partes for the cities sake that is made of bricke.

Isa 16:11 That is why my heart mourns for Moab like a harp. My soul mourns for Kir Hareseth.

It actually means my heart shall sound like...

misinterpretation really...

Or it could mean intestines.

Bowels is funnier though...
