19 vous frapperez toutes les villes fortes et toutes les villes d’élite, vous abattrez tous les bons arbres, vous boucherez toutes les sources d’eau, et vous ruinerez avec des pierres tous les meilleurs champs.

20 Or le matin, au moment de la présentation de l’offrande, voici, l’eau arriva du chemin d’Édom, et le pays fut rempli d’eau.

21 Cependant, tous les Moabites ayant appris que les rois montaient pour les attaquer, on convoqua tous ceux en âge de porter les armes et même au-dessus, et ils se tinrent sur la frontière.

22 Ils se levèrent de bon matin, et quand le soleil brilla sur les eaux, les Moabites virent en face d’eux les eaux rouges comme du sang.

23 Ils dirent: C’est du sang! Les rois ont tiré l’épée entre eux, ils se sont frappés les uns les autres; maintenant, Moabites, au pillage!
