1
Then we turned , and went up the way to Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan came out against us , he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
2
And the LORD said unto me, Fear him not: for I will deliver him, and all his people, and his land , into thy hand ; and thou shalt do unto him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon .
3
So the LORD our God delivered into our hands Og also, the king of Bashan , and all his people: and we smote him until none was left to him remaining.
4
And we took all his cities at that time , there was not a city which we took not from them, threescore cities , all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
5
All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates , and bars ; beside unwalled towns a great many.
6
And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon , utterly destroying the men, women , and children, of every city .
7
But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities , we took for a prey to ourselves.
8
And we took at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites the land that was on this side Jordan , from the river of Arnon unto mount Hermon ;
9
(Which Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion; and the Amorites call it Shenir;)
10
All the cities of the plain, and all Gilead , and all Bashan, unto Salchah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
11
For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants ; behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron ; is it not in Rabbath of the children of Ammon ? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man .
12
And this land , which we possessed at that time , from Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, and half mount Gilead , and the cities thereof, gave I unto the Reubenites and to the Gadites.
13
And the rest of Gilead , and all Bashan, being the kingdom of Og, gave I unto the half tribe of Manasseh ; all the region of Argob, with all Bashan, which was called the land of giants .
14
Jair the son of Manasseh took all the country of Argob unto the coasts of Geshuri and Maachathi; and called them after his own name , Bashan-havoth-jair, unto this day .
15
And I gave Gilead unto Machir .
16
And unto the Reubenites and unto the Gadites I gave from Gilead even unto the river Arnon half the valley, and the border even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon ;
17
The plain also, and Jordan , and the coast thereof, from Chinnereth even unto the sea of the plain , even the salt sea , under Ashdoth-pisgah eastward.
18
And I commanded you at that time , saying, The LORD your God hath given you this land to possess it: ye shall pass over armed before your brethren the children of Israel , all that are meet for the war.
19
But your wives , and your little ones, and your cattle , (for I know that ye have much cattle ,) shall abide in your cities which I have given you;
20
Until the LORD have given rest unto your brethren , as well as unto you, and until they also possess the land which the LORD your God hath given them beyond Jordan : and then shall ye return every man unto his possession, which I have given you.
21
And I commanded Joshua at that time , saying, Thine eyes have seen all that the LORD your God hath done unto these two kings : so shall the LORD do unto all the kingdoms whither thou passest.
22
Ye shall not fear them: for the LORD your God he shall fight for you.
23
And I besought the LORD at that time , saying,
24
O Lord GOD, thou hast begun to shew thy servant thy greatness, and thy mighty hand : for what God is there in heaven or in earth , that can do according to thy works , and according to thy might ?
25
I pray thee, let me go over, and see the good land that is beyond Jordan , that goodly mountain , and Lebanon .
26
But the LORD was wroth with me for your sakes, and would not hear me: and the LORD said unto me, Let it suffice thee; speak no more unto me of this matter.
27
Get thee up into the top of Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes westward, and northward , and southward, and eastward, and behold it with thine eyes : for thou shalt not go over this Jordan .
28
But charge Joshua , and encourage him, and strengthen him: for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land which thou shalt see .
29
So we abode in the valley over against Beth-peor.
