2 Kings 3:22-24

International Standard Version

²² As the Moabites arose early that morning, the sun cast its rays on the water, and to the Moabites, the water across from them appeared to be red like blood. ²³ So they concluded,^[a] “This must be blood! The kings must have had one mighty big fight and each man killed the other! So let’s go get the battle spoil, Moab!”

²⁴ But when the Moabites arrived at the Israeli encampment, the Israelis got up and attacked them. The Moabites ran away from the Israelis,^[b] who followed them into the land as they continued their pursuit against Moab.
