Deuteronomy3

¹Then we turned and went up the way to Bashan . And Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people , to battle at Edrei .

²But the Lord said to me, Do not fear him, for I have given him and all his people and his land into your hand . And you shall do to him as you did to Sihon the king of the Amorites , who lived at Heshbon .

³So the Lord our God gave into our hand Og also , the king of Bashan , and all his people , and we struck him down until he had no survivor left .

⁴And we took all his cities at that time —there was not a city that we did not take from them—sixty cities , the whole region of Argob , the kingdom of Og in Bashan .

⁵All these were cities fortified with high walls , gates , and bars , besides very many unwalled villages .

⁶And we devoted them to destruction , as we did to Sihon the king of Heshbon , devoting to destruction every city , men , women , and children .

⁷But all the livestock and the spoil of the cities we took as our plunder .

⁸So we took the land at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan , from the Valley of the Arnon to Mount Hermon

⁹(the Sidonians call Hermon Sirion , while the Amorites call it Senir ),

¹⁰all the cities of the tableland and all Gilead and all Bashan , as far as Salecah and Edrei , cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan .

¹¹(For only Og the king of Bashan was left of the remnant of the Rephaim . Behold , his bed was a bed of iron . Is it not in Rabbah of the Ammonites ? Nine cubits was its length , and four cubits its breadth , according to the common cubit . )

¹²When we took possession of this land at that time , I gave to the Reubenites and the Gadites the territory at Aroer , which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon , and half the hill country of Gilead with its cities .

¹³The rest of Gilead , and all Bashan , the kingdom of Og , that is, all the region of Argob , I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh . ( All that portion of Bashan is called the land of Rephaim .

¹⁴Jair the Manassite took all the region of Argob , that is, Bashan , as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites , and called the villages after his own name , Havvoth-jair , as it is to this day .)

¹⁵To Machir I gave Gilead ,

¹⁶and to the Reubenites and the Gadites I gave the territory from Gilead as far as the Valley of the Arnon , with the middle of the valley as a border , as far over as the river Jabbok , the border of the Ammonites ;

¹⁷the Arabah also, with the Jordan as the border , from Chinnereth as far as the Sea of the Arabah , the Salt Sea , under the slopes of Pisgah on the east .

¹⁸And I commanded you at that time , saying , The Lord your God has given you this land to possess . All your men of valor shall cross over armed before your brothers , the people of Israel .

¹⁹Only your wives , your little ones , and your livestock (I know that you have much livestock ) shall remain in the cities that I have given you,

²⁰until the Lord gives rest to your brothers , as to you, and they also occupy the land that the Lord your God gives them beyond the Jordan . Then each of you may return to his possession which I have given you.

²¹And I commanded Joshua at that time , Your eyes have seen all that the Lord your God has done to these two kings . So will the Lord do to all the kingdoms into which you are crossing .

²²You shall not fear them, for it is the Lord your God who fights for you.

²³And I pleaded with the Lord at that time , saying ,

²⁴O Lord God, you have only begun to show your servant your greatness and your mighty hand . For what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do such works and mighty acts as yours?

²⁵Please let me go over and see the good land beyond the Jordan , that good hill country and Lebanon .

²⁶But the Lord was angry with me because of you and would not listen to me. And the Lord said to me, Enough from you ; do not speak to me of this matter again .

²⁷Go up to the top of Pisgah and lift up your eyes westward and northward and southward and eastward , and look at it with your eyes , for you shall not go over this Jordan .

²⁸But charge Joshua , and encourage and strengthen him, for he shall go over at the head of this people , and he shall put them in possession of the land that you shall see .

²⁹So we remained in the valley opposite Beth-peor .
