Heshbon » Of the amorites
For, a fire, hath come forth out of Heshbon, A flame, out of the stronghold of Sihon; It hath consumed Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of Arnon. Woe to thee, Moab, Thou art lost, O people of Chemosh, - He hath given up his sons as fugitives, And his daughters into captivity, Unto the king of the Amorites, Sihon. Then we shot them - Heshbon is destroyed, as far as Dibon, - Then laid we waste as far as Nophah, A fire reacheth unto Medeba. So then Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites. And Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they captured the villages thereof, - and dispossessed the Amorites that were there. Then turned they, and went up by the way of Bashan, - and Og, king of Bashan, came forth to meet them - he and all his people, to give battle at Edrei. Then said Yahweh unto Moses - Do not fear him, for into thy hand, have I delivered him and all his people, and his land, - Therefore shalt thou do unto him, as thou didst unto Sihon king of he Amorites, who was dwelling in Heshbon. So then they smote him and his sons and all his people, until there was not left him a remnant, - and took possession of his land.
