Deuteronomy 2:30-36
English Standard Version
30 But (A)Sihon the king of (B)Heshbon would not let us pass by him, for the Lord your God (C)hardened his spirit and made his heart obstinate, that he might give him into your hand, as he is this day. 31 And the Lord said to me, ‘Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land over to you. Begin to take possession, that you may occupy his land.’ 32 Then (D)Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Jahaz. 33 And (E)the Lord our God gave him over to us, and (F)we defeated him and his sons and all his people. 34 And we captured all his cities at that time and devoted to destruction[a] every (G)city, men, women, and children. We left no survivors. 35 Only the livestock we took as spoil for ourselves, with the plunder of the cities that we captured. 36 (H)From Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, and from (I)the city that is in the valley, as far as Gilead, there was not a city too high for us. (J)The Lord our God gave all into our hands.

Numbers 21:24-35
English Standard Version
24 (A)And Israel defeated him with the edge of the sword and took possession of his land from the Arnon to the (B)Jabbok, as far as to the Ammonites, for the border of the Ammonites was strong. 25 And Israel took all these cities, and Israel settled in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its villages. 26 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab and taken all his land out of his hand, as far as the Arnon. 27 Therefore the (C)ballad singers say,
“Come to (D)Heshbon, let it be built;
let the city of Sihon be established.
28 For (E)fire came out from (F)Heshbon,
flame from the city of Sihon.
It devoured (G)Ar of Moab,
and swallowed[a] the heights of the Arnon.
29 (H)Woe to you, O Moab!
You are undone, O people of (I)Chemosh!
He has made his sons fugitives,
and his daughters captives,
to an Amorite king, Sihon.
30 So we overthrew them;
Heshbon, as far as (J)Dibon, perished;
and we laid waste as far as Nophah;
fire spread as far as (K)Medeba.”[b]
King Og Defeated
31 Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites. 32 And Moses sent to spy out (L)Jazer, and they captured its villages and dispossessed the Amorites who were there. 33 Then they turned and went up by the way to Bashan. And Og the king of Bashan came out against them, he and all his people, to battle (M)at Edrei. 34 (N)But the Lord said to Moses, “Do not fear him, for I have given him into your hand, and all his people, and his land. And (O)you shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.” 35 So they defeated him and his sons and all his people, until he had no survivor left. And they possessed his land.
