Read Deuteronomy 3 in full →Israel Takes Possession of the Land
3“aThen we turned and went up the road to Bashan, and Og king of Bashan, 1with all his people, came out to meet us in battle at Edrei. 2“But Yahweh said to me, ‘Do not fear him, for I have given him and all his people and his land over into your hand; and you shall do to him just as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.’ 3“So Yahweh our God also gave Og, king of Bashan, with all his people over into our hand, and we struck 1them until 2there was no survivor remaining for him. 4“And we captured all his cities at that time; there was not a town which we did not take from them: sixty cities, all the region of aArgob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan. 5“All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates and bars, besides a great many 1unwalled towns. 6“And we 1devoted them to destruction, as we did to aSihon king of Heshbon, 2,bdevoting to destruction 3the men, women, and little ones of every city. 7“aBut all the animals and the spoil of the cities we took as our plunder.
