1 “And we turned and went up the way to Bashan, and Og king of Bashan came out to meet us, he and all his people, to the battle at Edrei. 2 And YHWH said to me, Do not fear him, for I have given him, and all his people, and his land into your hand, and you will do to him as you have done to Sihon king of the Amorite who was staying in Heshbon. 3 And our God YHWH indeed gave Og king of Bashan and all his people into our hands, and we struck him until there had been no remnant left to him. 4 And we captured all his cities at that time. There had not been a city which we had not taken from them—60 cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan. 5 All these were cities fortified with high walls, double gates, and bar, apart from very many cities of the open place. 6 And we devoted them, as we had done to Sihon king of Heshbon, devoting the men, the women, and the infants of every city. 7 And all the livestock, and the spoil of the cities, we had spoiled for ourselves. 8 And at that time we took the land out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorite, which was beyond the Jordan, from the Brook of Arnon to Mount Hermon 9 (Sidonians called Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites called it Senir), 10 all the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, as far as Salchah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan. 11 For only Og king of Bashan had been left of the remnant of the Rephaim. Look, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron. Is was not in Rabbath of the sons of Ammon? Its length was nine cubits and its breadth was four cubits, by the cubit of a man. 12 And this land, which we had possessed at that time, from Aroer, which was by the Brook of Arnon, and the half of Mount Gilead and its cities, I had given to the Reubenite and to the Gadite. 13 And the rest of Gilead and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I had given to the half tribe of Manasseh; all the region of Argob, with all Bashan—it was called the land of the Rephaim. 14 Jair son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob, as far as the border of Geshuri and Maachathi (namely Bashan), and called them by his own name, Havoth-Jair, to this day. 15 And I gave Gilead to Machir. 16 And to the Reubenite and to the Gadite I gave from Gilead even to the Brook of Arnon, the middle of the valley and the border, even to the Brook of Jabbok, the border of the sons of Ammon, 17 and the plain, and the Jordan, and the border, from Chinnereth even to the Sea of the Plain (the Salt Sea), under the Springs of Pisgah, at the sun-rising. 18 And at that time I commanded you, saying, Your God YHWH has given this land to you to possess it. You will pass over armed before your brothers the sons of Israel, all the sons of might. 19 Only your wives, and your infants, and your livestock—I know that you have much livestock—will stay in your cities which I have given to you, 20 until YHWH gives rest to your brothers like yourselves, and they also have possessed the land which your God YHWH has given to them beyond the Jordan. Then you will each turn back to his possession which I have given to you. 21 And I had commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Your eyes are seeing all that which your God YHWH has done to these two kings—so YHWH will do to all the kingdoms to where you are passing over. 22 Do not fear them, for your God YHWH—He is fighting for you. 23 And to YHWH I begged for grace at that time, saying, 24 Lord YHWH, You have begun to show Your servant Your greatness and Your strong hand. For who is a god in the heavens or in earth who does according to Your works and according to Your might? 25 Please let me pass over and see the good land which is beyond the Jordan, this good hill-country, and Lebanon. 26 And YHWH showed Himself angry with me for your sake, and did not listen to me, and YHWH said to me, Enough of you. Do not continue to speak to Me about this thing anymore. 27 Go up to the top of Pisgah, and lift up your eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and see with your eyes, for you will not pass over this Jordan. 28 And charge Joshua, and strengthen him, and harden him, for he will pass over before this people, and causes them to inherit the land which you see. 29 And we stayed in a valley opposite Beth-Peor.”
