The song of Heshbon

헤스본의 노래

Numbers 21:26–30: Heshbon was the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab and taken all his land out of his hand, as far as the Arnon. Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established.” A fire went out of Heshbon and devoured Ar of Moab and the lords of the high places of the Arnon; Moab, the people of Chemosh, is undone, his sons fugitives and his daughters captives of Sihon; Heshbon has perished even to Dibon, laid waste even to Nophah, which reaches to Medeba.
