And now fetch me a minstrel. And it came to pass when the minstrel played, that the hand of Jehovah was upon him.
16
And he said, Thus saith Jehovah: Make this valley full of ditches.
17
For thus saith Jehovah: Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet this valley shall be filled with water, and ye shall drink, both ye, and your cattle, and your beasts.
18
And this is a light thing in the sight of Jehovah: he will give the Moabites also into your hand.
19
And ye shall smite every fortified city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.
20
And it came to pass in the morning, when the oblation was offered up, that behold, there came water by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.
21
And all the Moabites heard that the kings were come up to fight against them, and they were called together, all that were able to put on armour, and upward, and stood by the border.
22
And they rose up early in the morning, and the sun rose upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water on the other side red as blood.
23
And they said, This is blood: the kings are entirely destroyed, and have smitten one another; and now, Moab, to the spoil!
24
And when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, and they fled before them; and they entered in and smote Moab.
25
And they beat down the cities, and on every good piece of land cast every man his stone and filled it, and they stopped every well of water, and felled every good tree, until they left [only] the stones at Kirhareseth; and the slingers went about it, and smote it.
