Deuteronomy 2:26-37
1599 Geneva Bible
26 Then I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sihon King of Heshbon, with words of peace, saying,
27 ¶ (A)Let me pass through thy land: I will go by the highway: I will neither turn unto the right hand nor to the left.
28 Thou shalt sell me meat for money, for to eat, and shalt give me water for money for to drink: only I will go through on my foot,
29 (As the [a]children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and the Moabites which dwell in Ar, did unto me) until I be come over Jordan, into the land which the Lord our God giveth us.
30 But Sihon the King of Heshbon would not let us pass by him: for the Lord thy God had [b]hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, because he would deliver him into thine hand, as appeareth this day.
31 And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land before thee: begin to possess and inherit his land.
32 (B)Then came out Sihon to meet us, himself with all his people to fight at Jahaz.
33 But the Lord our God delivered him [c]into our power, and we smote him, and his sons, and all his people.
34 And we took all his cities the same time, and destroyed every city, men, and [d]women, and children: we let nothing remain.
35 Only the cattle we took to ourselves, and the spoil of the cities which we took.
36 From Aroer, which is by the bank of the river of Arnon, and from the city that is upon the river, even unto Gilead: there was not one city that escaped us: for the Lord our God delivered up all [e]before us.
37 Only unto the land of the children of Ammon thou camest not, nor unto any place of the [f]river Jabbok, nor unto the cities in the mountains, nor unto whatsoever the Lord our God forbade us.
