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 L
ORD
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 L
ORD
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 L
ORD
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 L
ORD
have given rest unto
your brethren, as well as unto you, and
until
they also possess the land which the L
ORD
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 L
ORD
your
God hath done unto these two kings: so shall the L
ORD
do unto all the kingdoms whither thou
passest.
22
Ye shall not fear them: for the L
ORD
your God he shall fight for you.
23
And I besought
the L
ORD
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
235
