DE-3:1 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.
DE-3:2 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.
DE-3:3 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.
DE-3:4 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.
DE-3:5 All these cities [were] fenced with high walls, gates,
and bars;
beside unwalled towns a great many.
DE-3:6 And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king
of Heshbon,
utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city.
DE-3:7 But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took
for a prey to
ourselves.
DE-3:8 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;
DE-3:9 ([Which] Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion; and the
Amorites call it
Shenir;)
DE-3:10 All the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all
Bashan, unto
Salchah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
DE-3:11 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.
DE-3:12 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.
DE-3:13 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.
DE-3:14 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,
Bashanhavothjair, unto this day.
DE-3:15 And I gave Gilead unto Machir.
DE-3:16 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;
DE-3:17 The plain also, and Jordan, and the coast [thereof],
from Chinnereth
even unto the sea of the plain, [even] the salt sea, under
Ashdothpisgah
eastward.
DE-3:18 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.
DE-3:19 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;
DE-3:20 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.
DE-3:21 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.
DE-3:22 Ye shall not fear them: for the LORD your God he shall
fight for you.
DE-3:23 And I besought the LORD at that time, saying,
DE-3:24 O Lord GOD, thou hast begun to show 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?
DE-3:25 I pray thee, let me go over, and see the good land that
[is] beyond
Jordan, that goodly mountain, and Lebanon.
DE-3:26 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.
DE-3:27 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.
DE-3:28 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.
DE-3:29 So we abode in the valley over against Bethpeor.
