New Century Version

Deuteronomy 3:1-7 New Century Version (NCV)

1. When we turned and went up the road toward Bashan, Og king of Bashan and all his army came out to fight us at Edrei.

2. The Lord said to me, “Don’t be afraid of Og, because I will hand him, his whole army, and his land over to you. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon.”

3. So the Lord our God gave us Og king of Bashan and all his army; we defeated them and left no one alive.

4. Then we captured all of Og’s cities, all sixty of them, and took the whole area of Argob, Og’s kingdom in Bashan.

5. All these were strong cities, with high walls and gates with bars. And there were also many small towns with no walls.

6. We completely destroyed them, just like the cities of Sihon king of Heshbon. We killed all the men, women, and children,

7. but we kept all the cattle and valuable things from the cities for ourselves.
