אֶרְאֶ֙נּוּ֙ וְלֹ֣א עַתָּ֔ה אֲשׁוּרֶ֖נּוּ וְלֹ֣א קָר֑וֹב דָּרַ֨ךְ כּוֹכָ֜ב מִֽיַּעֲקֹ֗ב וְקָ֥ם שֵׁ֙בֶט֙ מִיִּשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וּמָחַץ֙ פַּאֲתֵ֣י מוֹאָ֔ב וְקַרְקַ֖ר כָּל־בְּנֵי־שֵֽׁת׃
Eu O verei, mas não agora; eu O contemplarei, mas não está próximo: Uma estrela sairá de Yaakov, e um cetro se levantará de Yisrael, e esmagará as fronteiras de Moav, e destruirá todos os filhos de Shet.
II Samuel
He struck Moav and he measured them with a rope. He had them lie down on the ground, those measured with two ropes were killed and those with the fullness of one rope were allowed to live. Moav became Dovid's slaves, bearers of a [yearly] present [for Dovid].
Jeremiah
A bout de forces, les fuyards s’arrêtent à l’ombre de Hesbon; cependant un feu jaillit de Hesbon, une flamme du milieu de Sihon pour dévorer les confins de Moab, le crâne de ces enfants de l’arrogance.
