Judges 11:13-22

13The kingH4428 of the AmmonitesH1121H5983 answeredH559 Jephthah’sH3316H3588 messengersH4397, “When IsraelH3478 came upH5927 out of EgyptH4714, they seizedH3947 my landH776, from the ArnonH769 toH5704 the JabbokH2999 and all the wayH5704 to the JordanH3383. Now, thereforeH6258, restoreH7725 itH853 peaceablyH7965.”

14JephthahH3316 againH3254H5750 sentH7971 messengersH4397 toH413 the kingH4428 of the AmmonitesH1121H5983 15to tellH559 him, “This is whatH3541 JephthahH3316 saysH559: IsraelH3478 did notH3808 take awayH3947 the landH776 of MoabH4124 or of the AmmonitesH5983. 16ButH3588 when Israel came upH5927 out of EgyptH4714, they traveledH1980 through the wildernessH4057 toH5704 the RedH5488 SeaH32201 and cameH935 to KadeshH6946. 17Then IsraelH3478 sentH7971 messengersH4397 toH413 the kingH4428 of EdomH123, sayingH559, ‘PleaseH4994 let us passH5674 through your landH776,’ but the kingH4428 of EdomH123 would notH3808 listenH8085. They alsoH1571 sentH7971 messengers toH413 the kingH4428 of MoabH4124, but he would notH3808 consentH14. So IsraelH3478 stayedH3427 in KadeshH6946.

18Then Israel traveledH1980 through the wildernessH4057 and bypassedH5437 the landsH776 of EdomH123 andH853 MoabH4124. They cameH935 toH4217 the east sideH8121 of the landH776 of MoabH4124 and campedH2583 on the other sideH5676 of the ArnonH769. But they did notH3808 enterH935 the territoryH1366 of MoabH4124, sinceH3588 the ArnonH769 was its borderH1366.

19And IsraelH3478 sentH7971 messengersH4397 toH413 SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, who ruledH4428 in HeshbonH2809, and saidH559 to him, ‘PleaseH4994 let us passH5674 through your landH776 intoH5704 our own placeH4725.’ 20But SihonH5511 would notH3808 trustH539 IsraelH3478 to passH5674 through his territoryH1366. SoH5511 he gatheredH622 allH3605 his peopleH5971, encampedH2583 in JahazH3096, and foughtH3898 withH5973 IsraelH3478.

21Then the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, deliveredH5414 SihonH5511 and allH3605 his peopleH5971 into the handH3027 of IsraelH3478, who defeated themH5221. So IsraelH3478 took possession ofH3423 allH3605 the landH776 of the AmoritesH567 who inhabitedH3427 thatH1931 countryH776, 22seizingH3423 allH3605 the landH1366H567 fromH4480 the ArnonH769 toH5704 the JabbokH2999 and from the wildernessH4057 toH5704 the JordanH3383.
