Numbers 21:21-35
21And IsraelH3478 sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, sayingH559, 22LetH5186 meH3808 passH5674 throughH5674 thy landH776: weH834 will notH3808 turnH5186 asideH5186 intoH776 fieldH7704, or intoH776 vineyardH3754; weH834 will notH3808 drinkH8354 of the waterH4325 of the wellsH875: weH834 will goH5674 by the king’sH4428 highH5186 wayH1870, untilH5704 weH834 have passedH5674 thy borderH1366. 23And SihonH5511 would notH3808 suffer IsraelH3478 to passH5674 throughH5674 his borderH1366: but SihonH5511 gatheredH622 allH3605 his peopleH5971 togetherH622, and wentH3318 outH3318 againstH7125 IsraelH3478 intoH935 the wildernessH4057, and cameH935 to JahazH3096: and he foughtH3898 againstH7125 IsraelH3478. 24And IsraelH3478 smoteH5221 him with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719, and possessedH3423 his landH776 from ArnonH769 unto JabbokH2999, evenH5704 unto the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983: for the borderH1366 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 was strongH5794. 25And IsraelH3478 tookH3947 allH3605 theseH428 citiesH5892: and IsraelH3478 dweltH3427 in allH3605 the citiesH5892 of the AmoritesH567, in HeshbonH2809, and in allH3605 the townsH1323 thereof. 26For HeshbonH2809 was the cityH5892 of SihonH5511 the kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, who had foughtH3898 againstH3027 the formerH7223 kingH4428 of MoabH4124, and takenH3947 allH3605 his landH776 outH3605 of his handH3027, evenH5704 unto ArnonH769. 27Wherefore they that speakH559 in proverbs sayH559, ComeH935 ye to HeshbonH2809, LetH3651 the cityH5892 of SihonH5511 be builtH1129 and establishedH3559: 28For a fireH784 is goneH3318 outH3318 of HeshbonH2809, A flameH3852 from the cityH7151 of SihonH5511: It hath devouredH398 ArH6144 of MoabH4124, The lordsH1167 of the highH1116 placesH1116 of ArnonH769. 29WoeH188 to thee, MoabH4124! Thou art undone, O peopleH5971 of ChemoshH3645: He hath givenH5414 his sonsH1121 as fugitivesH6412, And his daughtersH1323 intoH5414 captivityH7628, Unto SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567. 30WeH834 have shotH3384 at them; HeshbonH2809 is perishedH6 evenH5704 unto DibonH1769, And weH834 have laidH8074 wasteH8074 evenH5704 unto NophahH5302, WhichH834 reacheth unto MedebaH4311. 31Thus IsraelH3478 dweltH3427 in the landH776 of the AmoritesH567. 32And MosesH4872 sentH7971 to spyH7270 outH7971 JazerH3270, and they tookH3920 the townsH1323 thereof, and droveH3423 outH7971 the AmoritesH567 that were there. 33And they turnedH6437 and wentH3318 upH5927 by the wayH1870 of BashanH1316: and OgH5747 the kingH4428 of BashanH1316 wentH3318 outH3318 againstH7125 them, he and allH3605 his peopleH5971, to battleH4421 at EdreiH154. 34And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, FearH3372 him notH408: for I have deliveredH5414 him intoH413 thy handH3027, and allH3605 his peopleH5971, and his landH776; and thou shalt doH6213 to him as thou didst unto SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, whichH834 dweltH3427 at HeshbonH2809. 35SoH1115 they smoteH5221 him, and his sonsH1121, and allH3605 his peopleH5971, untilH5704 there was noneH3605 leftH7604 him remainingH7604: and they possessedH3423 his landH776.
