Numbers 21:27-29

New International Reader's Version

“Come to Heshbon. Let it be built again.
    Let Sihon’s city be made as good as new.

²⁸ “Fire went out from Heshbon.
    A blaze went out from the city of Sihon.
It burned up Ar in Moab.
    It burned up the citizens who lived on Arnon’s hills.
²⁹ Moab, how terrible it is for you!
    People of Chemosh, you are destroyed!
Chemosh has deserted his sons and daughters.
    His sons have run away from the battle.
His daughters have become prisoners.
    He has handed all of them over to Sihon,
    the king of the Amorites.
