Context of Numbers 21:33
31Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites. 32And Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took the towns thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there. And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei. 34And Jehovah said unto Moses, Fear him not: for I have delivered him into thy hand, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon. 35So they smote him, and his sons and all his people, until there was none left him remaining: and they possessed his land.

Wicked men do their utmost to secure themselves and their possessions…Read the comment
