From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Then the moon shall be confounded -The heavenly bodies are often employed in the sacred writings to denote the princes and kings of the earth. These expressions are not to be pressedad unguemas if the sun denoted one thing and the moon another; but they are general poetic expressions designed to represent rulers, princes, and magistrates of all kinds (compareEzekiel 32:7;Joel 2:30-31). Shall be confounded -Shall be covered with shame. That is, shall appear to shine with diminished beauty, as if it were ashamed in the superior glory that would shine around it.
