Deuteronomy 2:24-35

24‘AriseH6965, setH5265 out, and passH5674 throughH5674 the 12valleyH5158 of ArnonH769. LookH7200! I have givenH5414 SihonH5511 the AmoriteH567, kingH4428 of HeshbonH2809, and his landH776 into your handH3027; beginH2490 to takeH3423 possessionH3423 and contendH1624 with him in battleH4421. 25ThisH2088 dayH3117 I will beginH2490 to putH5414 3the dreadH6343 and fearH3374 of you 4upon the peoplesH5971 5everywhereH3605 underH8478 the heavensH8064, whoH834, when they hearH8085 the reportH8088 of you, 6will trembleH7264 and be in anguishH2342 becauseH4480H6440 of you.’

26“7So I sentH7971 messengersH4397 from the wildernessH4057 of KedemothH6932 to SihonH5511 kingH4428 of HeshbonH2809 with wordsH1697 of peaceH7965, sayingH559, 27‘Let me passH5674 through your landH776, I will 8travelH1980 only on the highwayH1870; I will not turnH5493 asideH5493 to the rightH3225 or to the leftH8040. 28You will sellH7666 me foodH400 for moneyH3701 so that I may eatH398, and giveH5414 me waterH4325 for moneyH3701 so that I may drinkH8354, 9onlyH7534 let me passH5674 throughH5674 on 10footH7272, 29justH3512 as the sonsH1121 of EsauH6215 who liveH3427 in SeirH8165 and the MoabitesH4125 who liveH3427 in 11ArH6144 didH6213 for me, untilH5704H834 I crossH5674 overH5674 the JordanH3383 into the landH776 whichH834 the LordH3068 our GodH430 is givingH5414 to us.’ 30But 12SihonH5511 kingH4428 of HeshbonH2809 was not willingH14 for us to passH5674 13through his land; for the 14LordH3068 your GodH430 hardenedH7185 his spiritH7307 and madeH553 his heartH3824 obstinateH553, in orderH4616 to deliverH5414 him into your handH3027, as he is todayH3117. 31The LordH3068 saidH559 to me, ‘SeeH7200, I have begunH2490 to deliverH5414 SihonH5511 and his landH776 15overH6440 to you. BeginH2490 to 16occupyH3423, that you may possessH3423 his landH776.’

32“Then SihonH5511 17with allH3605 his peopleH5971 cameH3318 out to meetH7122 us in battleH4421 at JahazH3096. 3318The LordH3068 our GodH430 deliveredH5414 him 19overH6440 to us, and we 2021defeatedH5221 him with his sonsH1121 and allH3605 his peopleH5971. 34So we capturedH3920 allH3605 his citiesH5892 at that timeH6256 and 2223utterlyH2763 destroyedH2763 24the menH4962, womenH802 and childrenH2945 of everyH3605 cityH5892. We leftH7604 noH3808 survivorH8300. 35We tookH962 25onlyH7534 the animalsH929 as our bootyH962 and the spoilH7998 of the citiesH5892 whichH834 we had capturedH3920.
