Deuteronomy 3:1-11

New International Version

Defeat of Og King of Bashan

3 Next we turned and went up along the road toward Bashan, and Og king of Bashan^(A) with his whole army marched out to meet us in battle at Edrei.^{(B) 2} The Lord said to me, “Do not be afraid^(C) of him, for I have delivered him into your hands, along with his whole army and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon.”

³ So the Lord our God also gave into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his army. We struck them down,^(D) leaving no survivors.^{(E) 4} At that time we took all his cities.^(F) There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them—the whole region of Argob, Og’s kingdom^(G) in Bashan.^{(H) 5} All these cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars, and there were also a great many unwalled villages. ⁶ We completely destroyed^[a] them, as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying^[b](I) every city—men, women and children. ⁷ But all the livestock^(J) and the plunder from their cities we carried off for ourselves.

⁸ So at that time we took from these two kings of the Amorites^(K) the territory east of the Jordan, from the Arnon Gorge as far as Mount Hermon.^{(L) 9} (Hermon is called Sirion^(M) by the Sidonians; the Amorites call it Senir.)^{(N) 10} We took all the towns on the plateau, and all Gilead, and all Bashan as far as Salekah^(O) and Edrei, towns of Og’s kingdom in Bashan. ¹¹ (Og king of Bashan was the last of the Rephaites.^(P) His bed was decorated with iron and was more than nine cubits long and four cubits wide.^[c] It is still in Rabbah^(Q) of the Ammonites.)
