Deuteronomy 3:1-22

Deuteronomy 3:1-22

[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 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] 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  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,  Bashanhavothjair,  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,  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.
