" aThen we turned and went
up the road
to Bashan
, and Og
, king
of Bashan
, 1with all
his people
came
out to meet
us in battle
at Edrei
.
"But the LORD said
to me, `Do not fear
him, for I have delivered
him and all
his people
and his land
into your hand
; and you shall do
to him just
as you did
to Sihon
king
of the Amorites
, who
lived
at Heshbon
.'
"So the LORD our God
delivered
Og
also
, king
of Bashan
, with all
his people
into our hand
, and we smote
1them until
no
survivor
was 2left
.
"We captured all
his cities
at that time
; there was not a city
which
we did not take
from them: sixty
cities
, all
the region
of aArgob
, the kingdom
of Og
in Bashan
.
"All these
were cities
fortified
with high
walls
, gates
and bars
, besides
a great
many
1unwalled
towns
.
"We 1utterly destroyed
them, as we did
to aSihon
king
of Heshbon
, 2 butterly
destroying
3the men
, women
and children
of every
city
.
" aBut all the animals
and the spoil
of the cities
we took
as our booty
.
" aThus we took the land
at that time
from the hand
of the two
kings
of the Amorites
who
were beyond
the Jordan
, from the 1valley
of Arnon
to Mount
Hermon
(Sidonians acall
Hermon
bSirion
, and the Amorites
call
it cSenir
):
all the cities
of the plateau
and all
Gilead
and aall
Bashan
, as far
as Salecah
and Edrei
, cities
of the kingdom
of Og
in Bashan
.
(For only Og
king
of Bashan
was left
of the remnant
of the aRephaim
. Behold
, his 1bedstead
was an iron
1bedstead
; it is in bRabbah
of the sons
of Ammon
. Its length
was nine
cubits
and its width
four
cubits
2by ordinary
cubit
.)
"So we took possession
of this
land
at that time
. From aAroer
, which
is by the 1valley
of Arnon
, and half
the hill
country
of bGilead
and its cities
I gave
to the Reubenites
and to the Gadites
.
"The rest of Gilead
and all
Bashan
, the kingdom
of Og
, I gave
to the half-tribe
of Manasseh
, all
the region
of Argob
(concerning all
Bashan
, it is called
the land
of Rephaim
.
aJair the son
of Manasseh
took
all
the region
of Argob
as far
as the border
of the Geshurites
and the Maacathites
, and called
1it, that is, Bashan
, after
his own name
, 2Havvoth-jair
, as it is to this
day
.)
" aTo Machir I gave
Gilead
.
"To the Reubenites and to the Gadites
I gave
from Gilead
even as far
as the 1valley
of Arnon
, the middle
of the 1valley
2as a border
and as far
as the 1river
aJabbok
, the border
of the sons
of Ammon
;
the Arabah also, with the Jordan
1as a border
, from 2 aChinnereth
beven as far
as the sea
of the Arabah
, cthe Salt
Sea
, 3at the foot
of the slopes
of Pisgah
on the east
.
"Then I commanded you at that time
, saying
, ` aThe LORD
your God
has given
you this
land
to possess
it; ball
you valiant
men
shall cross
over
armed
before
your brothers
, the sons
of Israel
.
` aBut your wives and your little
ones
and your livestock
(I know
that you have bmuch
livestock
) shall remain
in your cities
which
I have given
you,
auntil the LORD
gives
rest
to your fellow
countrymen
as to you, and they also
possess
the land
which
the LORD
your God
will give
them beyond
the Jordan
. bThen you may return
every
man
to his possession
which
I have given
you.'
"I commanded Joshua
at that time
, saying
, `Your eyes
have seen
all
that the LORD
your God
has done
to these
two
kings
; so
the LORD
shall do
to all
the kingdoms
into which
you are about to cross
.
`Do not fear them, for the LORD
your God
ais the one fighting
for you.'
"I also pleaded with the LORD
at that time
, saying
,
`O Lord 1GOD
, You have begun
to show
Your servant
aYour greatness
and Your strong
hand
; for what
bgod
is there in heaven
or on earth
who
can do
such works
and mighty
acts
as Yours?
`Let me, I pray, cross
over
and see
the afair
land
that is beyond
the Jordan
, 1that good
hill
country
and Lebanon
.'
"But athe LORD was angry
with me on your account
, and would not listen
to me; and the LORD
said
to me, ` 1Enough
! Speak
to Me no
more
of this
matter
.
`Go up to the top
of aPisgah
and lift
up your eyes
to the west
and north
and south
and east
, and see
it with your eyes
, bfor you shall not cross
over
this
Jordan
.
` aBut charge Joshua
and encourage
him and strengthen
him, bfor he shall go
across
1at the head
of this
people
, and he will give
them as an inheritance
the land
which
you will see
.'
"So we remained in the valley
opposite
aBeth-peor
.
