2 Kings 3:21-25
21Now all Moab had heard that the kings were attacking, so everyone old enough to fight was mustered and placed at the border.
22When they got up early the next morning, the sun was shining on the water. To the Moabites, who were some distance away, the water looked red like blood.
23The Moabites said, “It’s blood! The kings are totally destroyed! They have struck one another down! Now, Moab, seize the plunder!”
24When they approached the Israelite camp, the Israelites rose up and struck down the Moabites, who then ran from them. The Israelites thoroughly defeated Moab.
25They tore down the cities and each man threw a stone into every cultivated field until they were covered. They stopped up every spring and chopped down every productive tree. Only Kir Hareseth was left intact, but the slingers surrounded it and attacked it.
