Deuteronomy 2:26-37 - The Defeat Of King Sihon
26 And I sent ambassadors out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sihon, king of Heshbon, with words of peace, saying, 27 Let me pass through thy land; I will go along by the high way; I will neither turn unto the right hand nor to the left. 28 Thou shalt sell me food for money, that I may eat, and give me water for money, that I may drink; I will only pass through on my feet 29 (as the sons of Esau, who dwell in Seir, and the Moabites, who dwell in Ar, did unto me) until I shall pass the Jordan into the land which the LORD our God gives us. 30 But Sihon, king of Heshbon, would not let us pass by him, for the LORD thy God had hardened his spirit and made his heart obstinate that he might deliver him into thy hand as until this day.
31 And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land before thee; begin, take possession that thou may inherit his land. 32 Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to fight at Jahaz. 33 But the LORD our God delivered him before us; and we smote him and his sons and all his people. 34 And we took all his cities at that time and utterly destroyed all the cities, the men and the women and the little ones; we left none to remain. 35 We took only the beasts for a prey unto ourselves and the spoil of the cities which we took. 36 From Aroer, which is by the brink of the river of Arnon, and from the city that is by the river even unto Gilead, there was not one city escaped us; the LORD our God delivered all of them before us. 37 Only unto the land of the sons of Ammon thou camest not, nor unto any place of the river Jabbok, nor unto the cities in the mountains, nor unto any place that the LORD our God forbade us.
