He was the last of the Rephaim,[b] and he lived in Ashtaroth and Edrei, 5 and reigned over Mount Hermon, over Salecah, and over all of Bashan up to the boundary with the Geshurites and the Maachathites, as well as half of Gilead, up to the boundary with Sihon, the king of Heshbon.[c] 6 Moses, the servant of the Lord, and the Israelites conquered them.
