into thy hand, as it is in the day.

And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land before thee; begin to possess and possess his land.

And Sihon went out to meet us, and all his people, to battle at Jahaz.

But the LORD our God gave him up before us, that we should smite him with his children, and with all his people.

And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed all his cities, both men, and women, and children, and left none over.

Without the cattle we robbed for ourselves, and the spoil of the cities we gained, 36. From Aroer, which is on the bank of the river near Arnon, and from the city that is by the water, even unto Gilead. There was no city that could keep itself from us: the LORD our God gave us all things before us.

Without the land of the children of Ammon thou camest not, nor unto all that was by the brook Jabbok, nor unto the cities of the mountains, nor unto all that the LORD our God had forbidden us.
(Deuteronomy)
Chapter 3
Victory against Og king of Bashan.

And we turned, and went up the way to Bashan. And Og king of Bashan went out to meet us, and all his people, to fight at Edrei.

And the LORD said unto me, Fear him not: for I have delivered him into thy hand, and all his people with his land; and thou shalt do unto him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, which sat at Heshbon.

So the LORD our God delivered into our hand Og king of Bashan, and all his people, and we smote him, until there was nothing left for him.

And we took all his cities at that time, and there was not a city that we took not from him; threescore cities, all the region of Argob, in the kingdom of Ogs in Bashan.

All these cities were strong, with high walls, gates, and bars, without other very many spots without walls.

And we utterly destroyed them, as we did Sihon king of Heshbon. And we utterly destroyed all the cities, both men, and women, and children.

But all the cattle and spoil of the cities we stole for ourselves.

So at that time we took the land out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites that were on the other side Jordan, from the river of Arnon unto mount Hermon, 9. Whom the Zidonians call Sirion, but the Amorites call him Senir; 10. Cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, unto Salcah and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

For Og king of Bashan alone was left of the giants. Behold, his bed of iron is here in Rabbath of the children of Ammon, nine cubits long, and four cubits broad, according to a man’s elbow.

And we took the land at that time from Aroer, which is by the river of Arnon. And I gave half the mountains of Gilead with their cities unto the Reubenites and Gadites.

And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan of the kingdom of Og, gave I unto the half tribe of Manasseh, and all the region of Argob unto all Bashan; that is, the land of the giants.

And Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob unto the border of Gessuri and Maachathi; and called Bashan by his name Havoth-jair unto this day.

And to Machir I gave Gilead.

And to the Reubenites and Gadites I gave a portion of Gilead unto the brook that is by Arnon in the midst of the brook, which is the border, and unto the brook Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon;

And the plain, and Jordan, which is the border, from Cinnereth even unto the sea of the plain, which is the salt sea, under mount Pisgah eastward.

And he commanded you at that time, saying, The LORD your God hath given you this land to possess: go ye therefore armed before your brethren the children of Israel, which are valiant;

Without your wives, and your children, and your cattle (for I know that ye have much cattle), let them abide in your cities which I have given you;

Until the LORD also bring your brethren to rest, as he did unto you, that they also may possess the land which the LORD your God shall give them beyond Jordan: then shall ye return unto your possession, which I have given you.

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 that thou shalt go.

Fear them not: for the LORD your God fighteth for you.

And I besought the LORD at that time, saying:

O LORD, O LORD, thou hast set forth thy glory and thy mighty hand to thy servant. For where is there a God in heaven and in the ends, that can be like unto thy works and like unto thy might?

Let me go and see the good land beyond Jordan, this good mountain, and Lebanon.

But the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, and hearkened not unto me, but said unto me, Let it be no more; say no more of this unto me.

Go up to the top of mount Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes toward the even, and toward the north, and toward the south, and toward the east, and see with thine eyes: for thou shalt not go over this Jordan.

And give Joshua charge, that he may be confident and undaunted: for he shall pass over Jordan before the people, and shall divide unto them the land which thou shalt see.

So we stayed in the valley against the house of Peor.
(Deuteronomy)
Chapter 4
Exhortation to obedience of the law.

And now hear, O Israel, the commandments and the statutes which I teach you to do them, that ye may live, and come in and possess the land which the LORD your fathers’ God giveth you.

Ye shall not add unto the things which I command you, neither shall ye take away from them, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you.

Your eyes have seen what the LORD hath done against Baal-peor: for all they that followed Baal-peor have destroyed the LORD your God from among you.

But ye that cleave unto the LORD your God, live all ye this day.

Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye are come to possess it.

Keep it therefore, and do it. For this shall be your wisdom and understanding among all nations, when they shall hear all these commandments, that they shall say, Yea, what wise and understanding men are these, and a glorious people!

For where is there so glorious a people, to whom gods draw nigh, as the LORD our God, as often as we call upon him?

And where is there such a glorious people, having such righteous customs and commandments, as all this law which I set before you this day?

Take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul well, that thou forget not the things which thine eyes have seen, and that they come not out of thine heart all thy days. And thou shalt make known
unto thy children, and unto thy children’s children.

The day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in mount Horeb, when the LORD said unto thee, Gather me the people together, that they may hear my words, and learn to fear me all the days of their life upon the earth, and teach their children.

And ye came near, and sat down by the mountain: and the mountain burned even to the midst of heaven; and there was darkness, and cloud, and gloom.

And the LORD spake unto you out of the midst of the fire. The voice of his words ye heard; but ye saw no likeness without the voice.

And he told you his covenant, which he commanded you to do, even the ten words, and wrote them upon two tables of stone.

And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, and to do them in the land whither ye go to possess it.

Take heed therefore unto your souls: for ye saw no likeness of the day that the LORD spake unto you out of the fire of mount Horeb,

Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make unto yourselves any graven image, like unto a man, or like unto a woman

or cattle on ends, or bird below the sky,

or worms on the land, or fish in the water under the end.

Lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and see the sun, and the moon, and the stars, all the host of heaven, and fall down, and worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath ordained for all nations under the whole heaven.

And the LORD received you, and brought you out of the iron furnace, that is, out of Egypt, to be his people of inheritance, as it is in this day.

And the LORD was so wroth with me because of your doings, that he sware that I should not pass over Jordan, neither come into the good land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance,

But I shall die in this land, and shall not pass over Jordan. But ye shall pass over, and possess such good land.

Take heed therefore unto yourselves, that ye forget not the covenant of
