³¹ The Lord said to me, “See, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his country over to you. Now begin to conquer and possess his land.”^(A)

³² When Sihon and all his army came out to meet us in battle^(B) at Jahaz, ³³ the Lord our God delivered^(C) him over to us and we struck him down,^(D) together with his sons and his whole army. ³⁴ At that time we took all his towns and completely destroyed^[a](E) them—men, women and children. We left no survivors. ³⁵ But the livestock^(F) and the plunder^(G) from the towns we had captured we carried off for ourselves.

Defeat of Sihon and Og

²¹ Israel sent messengers^(A) to say to Sihon^(B) king of the Amorites:^(C)

²³ But Sihon would not let Israel pass through his territory.^(E) He mustered his entire army and marched out into the wilderness against Israel. When he reached Jahaz,^(F) he fought with Israel.^{(G) 24} Israel, however, put him to the sword^(H) and took over his land^(I) from the Arnon to the Jabbok,^(J) but only as far as the Ammonites,^(K) because their border was fortified. ²⁵ Israel captured all the cities of the Amorites^(L) and occupied them,^(M) including Heshbon^(N) and all its surrounding settlements.
