Numbers 21:21-35 - Amorite Kings Defeated
21 Later, Israel sent messengers to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who conveyed this request: 22 "Permit us to pass through your land. We won't trespass in your fields or vineyards. We won't drink water from any well, and we'll only travel along the King's Highway until we've passed through your territory." 23 Instead of letting Israel pass through his territory, Sihon mustered his entire army and marched out to meet them in the wilderness. He arrived at Jahaz and attacked Israel. 24 But Israel defeated him in battle and took possession of all his lands from Arnon to Jabbok, including the Ammonites, even though the border of the Ammonites was strong.
25 So Israel captured all of those cities, occupied all the Amorite cities in Heshbon, and all its towns. 26 Heshbon was the capital city of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who fought against the previous king of Moab and captured all his land from his capital city to Arnon. 27 Therefore the ones who speak in proverbs say: Come to Heshbon and let it be built! Let the city of Sihon be established! 28 A fire has gone out from Heshbon, and a flame from the city of Sihon. It consumed Ar of Moab and the lords of the high places who lived in Arnon. 29 Woe to you, Moab! You are destroyed, you people of Chemosh! He has given up his sons as fugitives and his daughters have gone into captivity to Sihon, king of the Amorites. 30 We've fired at them. Heshbon has perished as far as Dibon. We've destroyed them as far as Nophah even as far as Medeba.
31 So Israel lived in Amorite territory. 32 Then Moses sent out explorers to scout Jazer. They captured its towns and drove out the Amorites who were there.
33 Then they turned toward Bashan. However, Og, the king of Bashan, mustered his army and went out to attack them at Edrei. 34 The LORD told Moses, "You are not to fear him, because I'm going to deliver him, his entire army, and his land into your control. Do to him just what you've done to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who used to live in Heshbon." 35 So they attacked him, his sons, and his entire army, until there wasn't even a single survivor left. Then they took possession of his land.
