The poets speak of Heshbon

27Therefore the poets say, “Come to Heshbon; let the city of Sihon be built and established.”

28For fire has gone out from Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon; it has consumed Ar of Moab, the lords of the high places of the Arnon.

29Woe to you, Moab! You are ruined, people of Chemosh! He has made his sons fugitives and his daughters captives to Sihon, king of the Amorites.

30And we shot at them; Heshbon has perished as far as Dibon, and we laid waste as far as Nophah, which reaches to Medeba.
