Numbers 21:23-35

Thomson(i) 23 But Seon would not grant Israel a passage through his territories. He indeed assembled all his people, and went out to the wilderness, to attack Israel, and came to Jessa, and drew up in array against Israel. 24 Whereupon Israel smote him with the slaughter of the sword, and took possession of his land, from Anion to Jabok, even to the Ammanites; for Jazer is the boundary of the Ammanites. 25 So Israel took all those cities; and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Hesebon, and in all those under the same dominion with it; 26 for Hesebon was the city of Seon the king of the Amorites. He indeed had made war on a former king of Moab, and had taken all his land from Aroer to Arnon; 27 for this cause the poets say, Come to Hesebon that it may be rebuilded, And that the city of Seon may be inhabited. 28 For a fire went forth from Hesebon; And a flame from the city of Seon; Which devoured even to Moab; Which devoured the pillars of Arnon. 29 Alas! for thee Moab! Thou wast undone, people of Chamos! Their sons were delivered up to save their lives; And their daughters were captives to Seon, king of the Amorites, 30 And their seed was destroyed from Hesebon even to Daibon. And against Moab their wives rekindled a fire. 31 And when Israel had taken possession of all the cities of the Amorites: 32 Moses sent to view Jazer, and they took it, and all the villages thereof, and drove out the Amorites who were there. 33 Then they turned and went up by the way of Basan. And when Og king of Basan came out to meet them, he and all his people, for battle at Adraim 34 the Lord said to Moses, Be not afraid of him; for into thy hands I will deliver him, and all his people, and all his land; And thou shalt do to him, as thou hast done to Seon, the king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Hesebon. 35 So he smote him, and his sons,, and all his people, until there was not one left to be taken alive. And they took possession of their land.
