24 Will you not possess whatever aChemosh your god gives you to possess? So whatever bthe Lord our God takes possession of before us, we will possess.
25 And now, are you any better than aBalak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever strive against Israel? Did he ever fight against them?
26 While Israel dwelt in aHeshbon and its villages, in bAroer and its villages, and in all the cities along the banks of the Arnon, for three hundred years, why did you not recover them within that time?
27 Therefore I have not sinned against you, but you wronged me by fighting against me. May the Lord, athe Judge, brender judgment this day between the children of Israel and the people of Ammon.’ ”
28 However, the king of the people of Ammon did not heed the words which Jephthah sent him.
