Numbers 21:27-29

The Voice

²⁷That’s where the singers get this taunting song:

    Come gather at Heshbon, the city built up and strong—
        the city of Sihon.
²⁸    For a fire went out from Heshbon,
        a flame from Sihon.
    It consumed Ar of Moab,
        swallowing the heights of Arnon.
²⁹    How terrible for you, O Moab!
        You are destroyed, O people of Chemosh!
    Chemosh has made the Amorite, Sihon,
        set your sons to rout
        and take your daughters into slavery!
