23 The ·Cretan people [L Caphtorim; C better known as Philistines] came from ·Crete [L Caphtor] and destroyed the Avvites, who lived in towns all the way to Gaza; the ·Cretans [L Caphtorim] destroyed them and took their place.)
Fighting the Amorites
24 The Lord said, “Get up and cross the Arnon ·Ravine [Wadi]. See, I am ·giving you the power to defeat [L putting in your hand] Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and I am giving you his land [Num. 21:21–32]. So fight against him and begin taking his land. 25 Today I will begin to make all the people ·in the world [L under heaven] afraid of you. When they hear reports about you, they will shake with fear, and they will be terrified of you.”
