Israel Takes Possession of the Land

3 “^(A)Then we turned and went up the road to Bashan, and Og king of Bashan, ^[a]with all his people, came out to meet us in battle at Edrei. ² But Yahweh said to me, ‘Do not fear him, for I have given him and all his people and his land over into your hand; and you shall do to him just as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.’ ³ So Yahweh our God also gave Og, king of Bashan, with all his people over into our hand, and we struck ^[b]them until ^[c]there was no survivor remaining for him. ⁴ And we captured all his cities at that time; there was not a town which we did not take from them: sixty cities, all the region of ^(B)Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan. ⁵ All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates and bars, besides a great many ^[d]unwalled towns. ⁶ And we ^[e]devoted them to destruction, as we did to ^(C)Sihon king of Heshbon, ^[f](D)devoting to destruction ^[g]the men, women, and little ones of every city. ^7 (E)But all the animals and the spoil of the cities we took as our plunder.

⁸ “^(F)Thus we took the land at that time from the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, from the ^[h]valley of Arnon to Mount Hermon ⁹ (Sidonians ^(G)call Hermon ^(H)Sirion, and the Amorites call it ^(I)Senir): ¹⁰ all the cities of the plateau and all Gilead and ^(J)all Bashan, as far as Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan. ¹¹ (For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the ^(K)Rephaim. Behold, his ^[i]bedstead was an iron ^[j]bedstead; it is in ^(L)Rabbah of the sons of Ammon. Its length was ^[k]nine cubits, and its width four cubits ^[l]by ordinary cubit.)
