2 Kings 3:25-27

25And they beat down the citiesH5892; and on every goodH2896 piece of landH2513 they castH7993 every manH376 his stoneH68, and filledH4390 it; and they stoppedH5640 all the fountains of waterH4325, and felledH5307 all the goodH2896 treesH6086, until in Kir-haresethH7025 only they leftH7604 the stonesH68 thereof; howbeit the slingers wentH5437 about it, and smote it. 26And when the kingH4428 of MoabH4124 sawH7200 that the battleH4421 was too sore for him, he tookH3947 with him sevenH7651 hundredH3967 menH376 that drewH8025 swordH2719, to breakH1234 through unto the kingH4428 of EdomH123; but they could not. 27Then he tookH3947 his eldest sonH1121 that should have reignedH4427 in his stead, and offeredH5927 him for a burnt-offering upon the wallH2346. And there wasH1961 greatH1419 wrathH7110 against IsraelH3478: and they departedH5265 from him, and returnedH7725 to their own landH776.
