And he said to them, Come after me; for the Lord has given the Moabites, your haters, into your hands. So they went down after him and took the crossing-places of Jordan against Moab, and let no one go across.

At that time they put about ten thousand men of Moab to the sword, every strong man and every man of war; not a man got away.

So Moab was broken that day under the hand of Israel. And for eighty years the land had peace.
