Numbers 21:27-32 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

27. Therefore those who use proverbs say, "Come to Heshbon! Let it be built! So let the city of Sihon be established.

28. "For a fire went forth from Heshbon, A flame from the town of Sihon; It devoured Ar of Moab, The dominant heights of the Arnon.

29. "Woe to you, O Moab! You are ruined, O people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, And his daughters into captivity, To an Amorite king, Sihon.

30. "But we have cast them down, Heshbon is ruined as far as Dibon, Then we have laid waste even to Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba."

31. Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.

32. Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they captured its villages and dispossessed the Amorites who were there.
