Now are you anything better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab?
Did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them?
Israel lived in Heshbon and its towns, and in Aroer and its towns, and in all the cities that are along the side of the Arnon for three hundred years!
Why didn’t you recover them within that time?
Therefore I have not sinned against you, but you do me wrong to war against me.
May the LORD the Judge be judge today between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon.”
