2 Kings 3:20-27
20And it cameH935 to passH935 in the morningH1242, aboutH1961 the time of offering the oblation, that, beholdH2009, there cameH935 waterH4325 by the wayH1870 of EdomH123, and the countryH776 was filledH4390 with waterH4325. 21NowH3588 when allH3605 the MoabitesH4124 heardH8085 that the kingsH4428 were comeH5927 upH5927 to fightH3898 againstH5921 them, they gatheredH3588 themselvesH5921 togetherH5921, allH3605 that were able to putH2296 on armour, and upwardH4605, and stoodH5975 on the borderH1366. 22And they roseH7925 upH7200 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and the sunH8121 shoneH2224 uponH5921 the waterH4325, and the MoabitesH4124 sawH7200 the waterH4325 over againstH5921 them as redH122 as bloodH1818: 23and they saidH559, This is bloodH1818; the kingsH4428 are surelyH5221 destroyedH5221, and they have smittenH5221 eachH376 manH376 his fellowH376: nowH6258 therefore, MoabH4124, to the spoilH7998. 24And when they cameH935 to the campH4264 of IsraelH3478, the IsraelitesH3478 roseH6965 upH6965 and smoteH5221 the MoabitesH4124, soH6965 that they fledH5127 beforeH6440 them: and they wentH935 forwardH6440 intoH413 the landH6440 smitingH5221 the MoabitesH4124. 25And they beatH5221 downH5221 the citiesH5892; and on everyH3605 goodH2896 piece of landH2513 they castH7993 everyH3605 manH376 his stoneH68, and filledH4390 it; and they stoppedH5640 allH3605 the fountainsH4599 of waterH4325, and felledH5307 allH3605 the goodH2896 treesH6086: untilH5704 in Kir-haresethH7025 onlyH5704 they leftH7604 the stonesH68 thereof; howbeit the slingersH7051 wentH5437 aboutH5437 it, and smoteH5221 it. 26And when the kingH4428 of MoabH4124 sawH7200 that the battleH4421 was tooH4480 sore for him, he tookH3947 with him sevenH7651 hundredH3967 menH376 that drewH8025 swordH2719, to breakH1234 throughH4480 unto the kingH4428 of EdomH123: but they couldH3201 notH3808. 27Then he tookH3947 his eldest sonH1121 that should have reignedH4427 in his steadH8478, and offeredH5927 him for a burntH5930 offering uponH5921 the wallH2346. And there was greatH1419 wrathH7110 againstH5921 IsraelH3478: and they departedH5265 from him, and returnedH7725 to their ownH1961 landH776.
