21 Then sent Israel, messengers, unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying: 22 Let me pass through thy land––we will not turn aside into field or into vineyard, nor will we drink the water of a well,––by the king’s road, will we go, until we get through thy boundary. 23 And Sihon suffered not Israel to pass through his boundary, but Sihon gathered together all his people, and came forth to meet Israel, towards the desert, and entered Jahaz,––and fought with Israel. 24 And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword,––and took possession of his land, from Arnon unto Jabbok, unto the sons of Ammon, for, strong, was the boundary of the sons of Ammon. 25 So Israel took all these cities,––and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all her villages; 26 for, as for Heshbon, the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, it was, he, having fought with the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, unto Arnon. 27 For this cause, say the poets––Enter ye Heshbon,––Built and prepared be the city of Sihon; 28 For, a fire, hath come forth out of Heshbon, A flame, out of the stronghold of Sihon; It hath consumed Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of Arnon. 29 Woe to thee, Moab, Thou art lost, O people of Chemosh,––He hath given up his sons as fugitives, And his daughters into captivity, Unto the king of the Amorites, Sihon. 30 Then we shot them––Heshbon is destroyed, as far as Dibon,––Then laid we waste as far as Nophah, A fire reacheth unto Medeba. 31 So then Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites. 32 And Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they captured the villages thereof,––and dispossessed the Amorites that were there. 33 Then turned they, and went up by the way of Bashan,––and Og, king of Bashan, came forth to meet them––he and all his people, to give battle at Edrei. 34 Then said Yahweh unto Moses––Do not fear him, for, into thy hand, have I delivered him, and all his people, and his land,––Therefore shalt thou do unto him, as thou didst unto Sihon, king of the Amorites, who was dwelling in Heshbon. 35 So then they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was not left him, a remnant,––and took possession of his land.
