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.

33 Then they turned and went up by the road to Bashan. 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.
