31 So the Israelites[a] lived in the land of the Amorites. 32 Moses sent spies to reconnoiter[b] Jazer, and they captured its villages[c] and dispossessed the Amorites who were there.

And King Og of Bashan and all his forces[d] marched out against them to do battle at Edrei. 34 And the Lord said to Moses, “Do not fear him, for I have delivered him and all his people and his land into your hand. You will do to him what you did to King Sihon of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.” 35 So they defeated Og,[e] his sons, and all his people, until there were no survivors,[f] and they possessed his land.
