Deuteronomy 3:5-7
New English Translation
5 All of these cities were fortified by high walls, gates, and locking bars;[a] in addition there were a great many open villages.[b] 6 We put all of these under divine judgment[c] just as we had done to King Sihon of Heshbon—every occupied city,[d] including women and children. 7 But all the livestock and plunder from the cities we kept for ourselves.
