The Kings Conquered by Moses
(cf. Num. 21:21–35)
1These are the kings of the land whom the children of Israel defeated, and whose land they possessed on the other side of the Jordan toward the rising of the sun, from the River Arnon to Mount Hermon, and all the eastern Jordan plain:
2One king was Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon and ruled half of Gilead, from Aroer, which is on the bank of the River Arnon, from the middle of that river, even as far as the River Jabbok, which is the border of the Ammonites,
3and the eastern Jordan plain from the 12:3 Sea of GalileeSea of Chinneroth as far as the 12:3 Lit. Sea of the Plain, the Dead SeaSea of the Arabah (the Salt Sea), the road to Beth Jeshimoth, and 12:3 Or Temansouthward below the12:3 Or Ashdoth Pisgah slopes of Pisgah.
4The other king was Og king of Bashan and his territory, who was of the remnant of the giants, who dwelt at Ashtaroth and at Edrei,
5and reigned over Mount Hermon, over Salcah, over all Bashan, as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and over half of Gilead to the border of Sihon king of Heshbon.
6These Moses the servant of the Lord and the children of Israel had conquered; and Moses the servant of the Lord had given it as a possession to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh.
