NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

Numbers 21

Arad Conquered

1

When the Canaaniteh3669a, the kingh4428 of  aAradh6166a, who livedh3427 in the  1Negevh5045, heardh8085 that Israelh3478 was comingh935 by the wayh1870 of  2Atharimh871, then he foughth3898a against Israelh3478 and tookh7617 someh4480 of them captiveh7628b.

2

So  aIsraelh3478 madeh5087 a vowh5088 to the LORDh3068 and saidh559, "Ifh518 You will indeedh5414 deliverh5414 thish2088 peopleh5971a into my handh3027, then I will  1utterlyh2763a destroyh2763a their citiesh5892b."

3

The LORDh3068 heardh8085 the voiceh6963 of Israelh3478 and deliveredh5414 up the Canaanitesh3669a; then they  1utterlyh2763a destroyedh2763a them and their citiesh5892b. Thus the nameh8034 of the placeh4725 was calledh7121  2 aHormahh2767.

4

Then they seth5265 out from Mounth2022 Horh2023 by the wayh1870 of the  1Redh5488h3220 Seah3220, to  agoh5437 aroundh5437 the landh776 of Edomh112b; and the  2peopleh5315h5971a becameh7114a impatienth7114a because of the journeyh1870.

5

The peopleh5971a spokeh1696 against Godh430 and Mosesh4872, " aWhyh4100 have you broughth5927 us up out of Egypth4714 to dieh4191 in the wildernessh4057b? For thereh369 is noh369  1foodh3899 and noh369 waterh4325, and  2 bwe loatheh6973 this miserableh7052 foodh3899."

The Bronze Serpent

6

 aThe LORDh3068 senth7971 fieryh8314a serpentsh8314a among the peopleh5971a and  bthey bith5391a the peopleh5971a, so that  cmanyh7227a peopleh5971a of Israelh3478 diedh4191.

7

 aSo the peopleh5971a cameh935 to Mosesh4872 and saidh559, "We have sinnedh2398, becauseh3588 we have spokenh1696 against the LORDh3068 and you;  bintercedeh6419 with the LORDh3068, that He may removeh5493 the serpentsh5175 from us." And Mosesh4872 intercededh6419 for the peopleh5971a.

8

Then the LORDh3068 saidh559 to Mosesh4872, " 1Makeh6213a a  afieryh8314a serpent, and seth7760 it on a standardh5251; and it shall comeh1961 about, that everyoneh3605 who is bittenh5391a, when he looksh7200 at it, he will liveh2421a."

9

And Mosesh4872 madeh6213a a  abronzeh5178 serpenth5175 and seth7760 it on the standardh5251; and it cameh1961 about, that ifh518 a serpenth5175 bith5391a anyh376 manh376, when he lookedh5027 to the bronzeh5178 serpenth5175, he livedh2421a.

10

 aNow the sonsh1121 of Israelh3478 movedh5265 out and campedh2583 in Obothh88.

11

They journeyedh5265 from Obothh88 and campedh2583 at Iyeabarimh5863, in the wildernessh4057b whichh834 is oppositeh5921h6440 Moabh4124, to the  1easth4217h8121.

12

 aFrom thereh8033 they seth5265 out and campedh2583 in  1Wadih5158a Zeredh2218.

13

From thereh8033 they journeyedh5265 and campedh2583 on the otherh5676 sideh5676 of the Arnonh769, whichh834 is in the wildernessh4057b that comesh3318 out of the borderh1366 of the Amoritesh567,  afor the Arnonh769 is the borderh1366 of Moabh4124, betweenh996 Moabh4124 and the Amoritesh567.

14

Thereforeh5921h3651 it is saidh559 in the Bookh5612 of the Warsh4421 of the LORDh3068, "Wahebh2052 in Suphahh5492b, And the wadish5158a of the Arnonh769,

15

And the slopeh793 of the wadish5158a That extendsh5186 to the siteh7675 of  aArh6144, And leansh8172 to the borderh1366 of Moabh4124."

16

 aFrom thereh8033 they continued to  1Beerh876, that is the wellh875 whereh834 the LORDh3068 saidh559 to Mosesh4872, "Assembleh622 the peopleh5971a, that I may giveh5414 them waterh4325."

17

 aThenh227 Israelh3478 sangh7891 thish2088 songh7892b: "Springh5927 up, O wellh875! Singh6031b to it!

18

"The wellh875, which the leadersh8269 sankh2658, Which the noblesh5081 of the peopleh5971a dugh3738a, With the scepterh2710 and with their staffsh4938b." And from the wildernessh4057b they continued to Mattanahh4980,

19

and from Mattanahh4980 to Nahalielh5160, and from Nahalielh5160 to Bamothh1120,

20

and from Bamothh1120 to the valleyh1516 that is in the landh7704 of Moabh4124, at the toph7218 of Pisgahh6449 which overlooksh5921h6440h8259 the  1wastelandh3452.

Two Victories

21

 aThen Israelh3478 senth7971 messengersh4397 to Sihonh5511, kingh4428 of the Amoritesh567, sayingh559,

22

aLet me passh5674a throughh5674a your landh776. We will not turnh5186 off into fieldh7704 or vineyardh3754; we will not drinkh8354 waterh4325 from wellsh875. We will goh1980 by the king'sh4428 highwayh1870 untilh5704h834 we have passedh5674a throughh5674a your borderh1366."

23

 aBut Sihonh5511 would not permith5414 Israelh3478 to passh5674a throughh5674a his borderh1366. So Sihonh5511 gatheredh622 allh3605 his peopleh5971a and wenth3318 out againsth7122 Israelh3478 in the wildernessh4057b, and cameh935 to  bJahazh3096 and foughth3898a against Israelh3478.

24

Then  aIsraelh3478  1struckh5221 him with the edgeh6310 of the swordh2719, and tookh3423 possessionh3423 of his landh776 from the Arnonh769 to the Jabbokh2999, as farh5704 as the sonsh1121 of Ammonh5983; for the  bborderh1366 of the sonsh1121 of Ammonh5983 was  2Jazerh3270.

25

Israelh3478 tookh3947 allh3605 theseh428 citiesh5892b and  aIsraelh3478 livedh3427 in allh3605 the citiesh5892b of the Amoritesh567, in Heshbonh2809, and in allh3605 her  1villagesh1323.

26

For Heshbonh2809 was the cityh5892b of Sihonh5511, kingh4428 of the Amoritesh567, whoh1931 had foughth3898a against the formerh7223 kingh4428 of Moabh4124 and had takenh3947 allh3605 his landh776 out of his handh3027, as farh5704 as the Arnonh769.

27

Thereforeh5921h3651 those who useh4911b proverbsh4911b sayh559, "Comeh935 to Heshbonh2809! Let it be builth1129! So let the cityh5892b of Sihonh5511 be establishedh3559.

28

aFor a fireh784 wenth3318 forthh3318 from Heshbonh2809, A flameh3852 from the townh7151 of Sihonh5511; It devouredh398  bArh6144 of Moabh4124, The  1 cdominanth1167  2heightsh1181 of the Arnonh769.

29

aWoeh188 to you, O Moabh4124! You are ruinedh6, O peopleh5971a of  bChemoshh3645!  cHe has givenh5414 his sonsh1121 as fugitivesh6412b,  dAnd his daughtersh1323 into captivityh7622, To an Amoriteh567 kingh4428, Sihonh5511.

30

"But we have casth3384 them downh3384, Heshbonh2809 is ruinedh6 as farh5704 as  aDibonh1769, Then we have laidh8074 wasteh8074 evenh5704 to Nophahh5302, Whichh834 reaches to Medebah4311."

31

Thus Israelh3478 livedh3427 in the landh776 of the Amoritesh567.

32

Mosesh4872 senth7971 to spyh7270 out  aJazerh3270, and they capturedh3920 its villagesh1323 and dispossessedh3423 the Amoritesh567 whoh834 were thereh8033.

33

 aThen they turnedh6437 and wenth5927 up by the wayh1870 of Bashanh1316, and Ogh5747 the kingh4428 of Bashanh1316 wenth3318 out  1with allh3605 his peopleh5971a, for battleh4421 at  bEdreih154.

34

But the LORDh3068 saidh559 to Mosesh4872, " aDo not fearh3372a him, for I have givenh5414 him into your handh3027, and allh3605 his peopleh5971a and his landh776; and you shall doh6213a to him as you didh6213a to Sihonh5511, kingh4428 of the Amoritesh567, whoh834 livedh3427 at Heshbonh2809."

35

So  athey  1killedh5221 him and his sonsh1121 and allh3605 his peopleh5971a, untilh5704 there was noh1115 remnanth8300 lefth7604 him; and they possessedh3423 his landh776.
