Joshua 12
Kings Defeated by Israel
1Now these are the 1kings of the land whom the sons of Israel 2defeated, and they took possession of their land beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise, from the Valley of the Arnon as far as Mount Hermon, and all the Arabah to the east: 2Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon and ruled 3from Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, both the middle of the valley and half of Gilead, even as far as the brook Jabbok, the border of the sons of Ammon; 3and the 4Arabah as far as the Sea of 5Chinneroth toward the east, and as far as the Sea of the Arabah, that is, the Salt Sea, eastward 6toward 7Beth-jeshimoth, and on the south, 8at the foot of the slopes of Pisgah; 4and the territory of Og king of Bashan, one of 9the remnant of Rephaim, who lived at 10Ashtaroth and at Edrei, 5and ruled over Mount Hermon, 11Salecah, and all Bashan, as far as 12the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and half of Gilead, as far as the border of Sihon king of Heshbon. 6Moses the servant of the Lord and the sons of Israel 13defeated them; and 14Moses the servant of the Lord gave it to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh as a possession.
