27 Therefore the (A)ballad singers say,

“Come to (B)Heshbon, let it be built;
    let the city of Sihon be established.
28 For (C)fire came out from (D)Heshbon,
    flame from the city of Sihon.
It devoured (E)Ar of Moab,
    and swallowed[a] the heights of the Arnon.
29 (F)Woe to you, O Moab!
    You are undone, O people of (G)Chemosh!
He has made his sons fugitives,
    and his daughters captives,
    to an Amorite king, Sihon.
30 So we overthrew them;
    Heshbon, as far as (H)Dibon, perished;
    and we laid waste as far as Nophah;
    fire spread as far as (I)Medeba.”[b]
