Deuteronomy 3:4-12 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

4. And we captured all of his towns at that time; there was not a city that we did not take from them.

5. All of these were fortified towns with high walls, gates, and bars, apart from very many of the villages of the open country.

6. And so we destroyed them just as we had done to Sihon the king of Heshbon; we destroyed utterly each town of males, the women, and the little children.

7. But all of the livestock and the booty of the towns we kept as spoil for ourselves.

8. “And so we took at that time the land from the control of the two kings of the Amorites who were on the other side of the Jordan, from the wadi of Arnon up to Mount Hermon.

9. (The Sidonians called Hermon ‘Sirion,’ and the Amorites called it ‘Senir.’)

10. All of the towns of the plateau and the whole of Gilead and all of Bashan up to Salecah and Edrei, the towns of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

11. (For only Og, king of Bashan, was left from the remnant of the Rephaim. Indeed, his bedstead—it was a bedstead of iron. It is in Rabbah of the Ammonites. Nine cubits is its length, and four cubits is its width according to the cubit of a man.)

12. And so we took possession of this land at that time, from Aroer, which is on the edge of the wadi of Arnon, and also half of the hill country of Gilead and its towns I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites.
