Deuteronomy 3:4-13

4At thatH1931 timeH6256 we capturedH3920 allH3605 sixtyH8346 of his citiesH5892. There was notH3808H1961 a single cityH7151 we failed toH3808 takeH3947—the entireH3605 regionH2256 of ArgobH709, the kingdomH4467 of OgH5747 in BashanH1316. 5AllH3605 theseH428 citiesH5892 were fortifiedH1219 with highH1364 wallsH2346 and gatesH1817 and barsH1280, and there wereH905H5892 many moreH7235H3966 unwalled villagesH6521. 6We devoted them to destructionH2763,1 asH834 we had doneH6213 to SihonH5511 kingH4428 of HeshbonH2809, utterly destroyingH2763 the menH4962, womenH802, and childrenH2945 of everyH3605 cityH5892.

7But allH3605 the livestockH929 and plunderH7998 of the citiesH5892 we carried offH962 for ourselves.

8At thatH1931 timeH6256 we tookH3947 fromH3027 the twoH8147 kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567 the landH776 acrossH5676 the JordanH3383, from the ArnonH769 ValleyH5158 asH5704 far as MountH2022 HermonH2768— 9which the SidoniansH6722 callH7121H2768 SirionH8303 but the AmoritesH567 callH7121 SenirH8149— 10allH3605 the citiesH5892 of the plateauH4334, allH3605 of GileadH1568, and allH3605 of BashanH1316 as far asH5704 the citiesH5892 of SalecahH5548 and EdreiH154 in the kingdomH4467 of OgH5747.

11(ForH3588 onlyH7535 OgH5747 kingH4428 of BashanH1316 had remainedH7604 of the remnantH3499 of the RephaimH7497H2009. His bedH6210 of ironH1270, nineH8672 cubitsH520 longH753 and fourH702 cubitsH520 wideH7341,2 is still in RabbahH7237 of the AmmonitesH1121H5983.)

12SoH853 at thatH1931 timeH6256 we took possession ofH3423 thisH2063 landH776. To the ReubenitesH7206 and GaditesH1425 I gaveH5414 the land beyond AroerH6177 alongH5921 the ArnonH769 ValleyH5158, and halfH2677 the hill countryH2022 of GileadH1568, along with its citiesH5892.

13To the half-tribeH2677H7626 of ManassehH4519 I gaveH5414 the restH3499 of GileadH1568 and allH3605 of BashanH1316, the kingdomH4467 of OgH5747. (The entireH3605 regionH2256 of ArgobH709, the wholeH3605 territory of BashanH1316H1931, used to be calledH7121 the landH776 of the RephaimH7497.)
