God Provides Water and Defeat for Moab

2 Kings 3:20-25

The next morning, around the time for making the offering, water came from the direction of Edom, and the countryside was filled with water.

When all Mo'av heard that the kings had come up to attack them, every man was summoned, from the youngest capable of bearing arms to older ones, and stationed on the border.

They rose early in the morning, when the sun was shining on the water. Mo'av, when they saw the water in the distance looking as red as blood,

said, "That's blood! The kings must have quarreled, and their soldiers killed each other. Mo'av! To the plunder!"

When they arrived at the camp of Isra'el, Isra'el launched an attack, so that Mo'av fled before them. But they advanced on Mo'av and struck it.

They made ruins of the cities. Each man threw his stone on every good field, covering it. They stopped up all the wells. They chopped down all the good trees. Finally, all that remained was Kir-Hareset behind its stone wall, with the slingers surrounding and attacking it.
