Context of Deuteronomy 3:1

Next we turned and followed the road that goes to Bashan. King Og of Bashan and all his troops came to fight us at Edrei. 2The Lord said to me, “Don’t be afraid of him. I’ll hand him, all his troops, and his land over to you. Do to him what you did to King Sihon of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon.” 3So the Lord our God also handed King Og of Bashan and all his troops over to us. We defeated him, leaving no survivors.
