2 Kings 3:19-25

19And ye shall smite every fortified cityH5892, and every choiceH4004 cityH5892, and shall fellH5307 every goodH2896 treeH6086, and stopH5640 all wells of waterH4325, and mar every goodH2896 piece of landH2513 with stonesH68.

20And it cameH935 to pass in the morningH1242, when the oblation wasH1961 offeredH5927 up, that behold, there cameH935 waterH4325 by the wayH1870 of EdomH123, and the country wasH1961 filledH4390 with waterH4325.

21And all the Moabites heardH8085 that the kingsH4428 were comeH5927 up to fightH3898 against them, and they were called together, all that were able to put on armour, and upwardH4605, and stoodH5975 by the borderH1366.

22And they roseH7925 up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and the sunH8121 roseH7925 upon the waterH4325, and the Moabites sawH7200 the waterH4325 on the other side redH122 as bloodH1818.

23And they saidH559, This is bloodH1818: the kingsH4428 are entirely destroyed, and have smitten oneH376 another; and nowH6258, MoabH4124, to the spoilH7998!

24And when they cameH935 to the campH4264 of IsraelH3478, the Israelites roseH6965 up and smote the Moabites, and they fledH5127 before them; and they entered in and smote MoabH4124.

25And they beat down the citiesH5892, and on every goodH2896 piece of landH2513 castH7993 every manH376 his stoneH68 and filledH4390 it, and they stoppedH5640 every well of waterH4325, and felledH5307 every goodH2896 treeH6086, until they leftH7604 [only] the stonesH68 at Kirhareseth; and the slingers wentH5437 about it, and smote it.
