And Yahweh said to Moses, "Do not fear him because I will give him and all his people and all his land into your hand. You will do to him just as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who was living in Heshbon."

So Moses mustered all the firstborn among the {Israelites} just as Yahweh commanded him.

Did I conceive all these people? If I have fathered them, that you could say to me, 'Carry them in your lap, just as a foster-father carries the suckling on the land that you swore an oath to their ancestors?'

So Moses did just as Yahweh commanded, and they went up to Mount Hor before the eyes of all the community.
