The LORD’s word to make the valley full of trenches, and the water that comes by the way of Edom and fills the country

골짜기에 개천을 파라는 여호와의 말씀과 에돔 편에서부터 흘러와 그 땅에 가득한 물

2 Kings 3:16–20: the passage does not name the speaker (WEB “He said”). He says, “The LORD says, ‘Make this valley full of trenches.’ For the LORD says, ‘You will not see wind, neither will you see rain, yet that valley will be filled with water, and you will drink, both you and your livestock and your other animals. This is an easy thing in the LORD’s sight. He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand. You shall strike every fortified city and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all springs of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.’” The text says, “In the morning, about the time of offering the sacrifice, behold, water came by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.” In WEB the LORD’s words of 3:17 run on to the end of 3:19, so that 3:18–19 are in them; the Korean Revised Version closes the LORD’s words at 3:16 and at 3:17 (…하셨나이다) and gives 3:18–19 as the speaker’s own words: 이것은 여호와 보시기에 오히려 작은 일이라 여호와께서 모압 사람도 당신의 손에 붙이시리니 (This is a small thing in the LORD’s sight; the LORD will deliver the Moabites also into your hand). At 3:20 it reads 소제 드릴 때에 (at the time of the meal offering).
