Numbers 21:21-25
211Then IsraelH3478 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to SihonH5511, kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, sayingH559,
22“2Let me passH5674 throughH5674 your landH776. We will not turnH5186 off into fieldH7704 or vineyardH3754; we will not drinkH8354 waterH4325 from wellsH875. We will goH1980 by the king’sH4428 highwayH1870 untilH5704H834 we have passedH5674 throughH5674 your borderH1366.”
233But SihonH5511 would not permitH5414 IsraelH3478 to passH5674 throughH5674 his borderH1366. So SihonH5511 gatheredH622 allH3605 his peopleH5971 and wentH3318 out againstH7122 IsraelH3478 in the wildernessH4057, and cameH935 to 4JahazH3096 and foughtH3898 against IsraelH3478.
24Then 5IsraelH3478 6struckH5221 him with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719, and tookH3423 possessionH3423 of his landH776 from the ArnonH769 to the JabbokH2999, as farH5704 as the sonsH1121 of AmmonH5983; for the 7borderH1366 of the sonsH1121 of AmmonH5983 was 8JazerH3270.
25IsraelH3478 tookH3947 allH3605 theseH428 citiesH5892 and 9IsraelH3478 livedH3427 in allH3605 the citiesH5892 of the AmoritesH567, in HeshbonH2809, and in allH3605 her 10villagesH1323.
