Numbers 21:21-30

21And IsraelH3478 sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, sayingH559, 22Let me passH5674 through thy landH776: we will not turnH5186 asideH5186 into fieldH7704, or into vineyardH3754; we will not drinkH8354 of the waterH4325 of the wellsH875: we will go by the king’sH4428 highway, until we have passedH5674 thy borderH1366. 23And SihonH5511 would not suffer IsraelH3478 to passH5674 through his borderH1366: but SihonH5511 gatheredH622 all his peopleH5971 together, and wentH3318 out against IsraelH3478 into the wildernessH4057, and cameH935 to JahazH3096; and he foughtH3898 against IsraelH3478. 24And IsraelH3478 smote him with the edge of the swordH2719, and possessedH3423 his landH776 from the ArnonH769 unto the JabbokH2999, even unto the children of AmmonH5983; for the borderH1366 of the children of AmmonH5983 was strongH5794. 25And IsraelH3478 tookH3947 all these citiesH5892: and IsraelH3478 dweltH3427 in all the citiesH5892 of the AmoritesH567, in HeshbonH2809, and in all the towns thereof. 26For HeshbonH2809 was the cityH5892 of SihonH5511 the kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, who had foughtH3898 against the formerH7223 kingH4428 of MoabH4124, and takenH3947 all his landH776 out of his handH3027, even unto the ArnonH769. 27Wherefore they that speak in proverbs sayH559,
