28 For fire went out from Heshbon,
    a flame from the city of Sihon.
It devoured Ar of Moab,
    the lords of the heights of the Arnon.
29 Woe to you, Moab.
    You have perished, O people of Chemosh.[a]
He has given up his sons as fugitives,
    his daughters as captives to Sihon,
    the king of the Amorites.
30 But we have shot at them,
    Heshbon has perished even as far as Dibon.
We have laid them waste up to Nophah,
    which extends to the Medeba.”
