2 Kings 3:25-27

251Thus they destroyedH2040 the citiesH5892; and eachH376 oneH376 threwH7993 a stoneH68 on everyH3605 pieceH2513 of goodH2896 landH2513 and filledH4390 it. So they stoppedH5640 allH3605 the springsH4599 of waterH4325 and felledH5307 allH3605 the goodH2896 treesH6086, untilH5704 in 2Kir-haresethH7025 only they leftH7604 its stonesH68; however, the slingersH7051 wentH5437 aboutH5437 it and struckH5221 it.

26When the kingH4428 of MoabH4124 sawH7200 that the battleH4421 was tooH4480 fierceH2388 for him, he tookH3947 with him 700H7651H3967 menH376 who drewH8025 swordsH2719, to breakH1234 throughH1234 to the kingH4428 of EdomH112; but they couldH3201 not.

27Then he tookH3947 his oldestH1060 sonH1121 whoH834 was to reignH4427 in his placeH8478, and 3offeredH5927 him as a burntH5930 offeringH5930 on the wallH2346. And there cameH1961 greatH1419 wrathH7110 againstH5921 IsraelH3478, and they departedH5265 from him and returnedH7725 to their own landH776.
