He killed Sihon, the king of the Amorites. His faithful love continues forever.

“ You gave them kingdoms and nations. You even gave them lands far away. They took over the country of Sihon. He was the king of Heshbon. They also took over the country of Og. He was the king of Bashan.

“‘ I brought you to the land of the Amorites. They lived east of the Jordan River. They fought against you. But I handed them over to you. I destroyed them to make room for you. Then you took over their land.

Then they asked,“ Has any tribe of Israel failed to come here to Mizpah in front of the Lord?” They discovered that no one from Jabesh Gilead had come. No one from there had gathered together with the others in the camp.

When you got here, Sihon and Og came out to fight against us. Sihon was the king of Heshbon. And Og was the king of Bashan. But we won the battle over them.

Then Moses gave their land to them. He gave it to the tribes of Gad and Reuben and half of the tribe of Manasseh. Manasseh was Joseph’s son. One part of that land had belonged to the kingdom of Sihon. He was the king of the Amorites. The other part had belonged to the kingdom of Og. He was the king of Bashan. Moses gave that whole land to those two and a half tribes. It included its cities and the territory around them.The people of Gad built up the cities of Dibon, Ataroth and Aroer.They built up Atroth Shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,Beth Nimrah and Beth Haran. They built a high wall around each of those cities. They also built sheep pens for their flocks.The people of Reuben built up Heshbon, Elealeh and Kiriathaim.They also built up Nebo, Baal Meon and Sibmah. They gave new names to the cities they had built up.The people of Makir, the son of Manasseh, went to the land of Gilead. They captured it.

The tribes of Reuben and Gad had very large herds and flocks. They looked at the lands of Jazer and Gilead. They saw that those lands were just right for livestock.So they came to Moses and Eleazar the priest. They also came to the leaders of the community. They said,“ We have seen the cities of Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah and Heshbon. We’ve seen Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo and Beon.All of them are in the land the Lord has brought under Israel’s control. This land is just right for livestock. And we have livestock.

It includes the town in the middle of the valley. It includes the high plains of Medeba all the way to Dibon.It also includes all the towns of Sihon, the king of the Amorites. He had ruled in Heshbon. That area reaches to the border of Ammon.

The Lord said to me,“ I have begun to hand Sihon and his country over to you. So begin the battle to take his land as your own.”Sihon and his whole army came out to fight against us at Jahaz.But the Lord our God handed him over to us. We struck him down together with his sons and his whole army.At that time we took all his towns. We completely destroyed them. We killed all the men, women and children. We didn’t leave any of them alive.But we took for ourselves the livestock and everything else from the towns we had captured.Not a single town was too strong for us. That includes all the towns from Aroer on the rim of the Arnon River valley all the way to Gilead. It also includes the town in the valley. The Lord our God gave us all of them.And you obeyed the Lord’ s command. You didn’t go near any part of the land of the Ammonites. That includes the land along the Jabbok River. It also includes the land around the towns in the hills.
