Chemosh
From BibleWiki
The destroyer, subduer, or fish-god, the god of the Moabites (Num 21:29; Jer 48:7, Jer 48:13, Jer 48:46). The worship of this god, "the abomination of Moab," was introduced at Jerusalem by Solomon (1 Kg 11:7), but was abolished by Josiah (2Kg 23:13). On the "Moabite Stone", Mesha (2Kg 3:5) ascribes his victories over the king of Israel to this god, "And Chemosh drove him before my sight."
