[1] Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan. Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei. [2] Yahweh said to me, “Don’t fear him; for I have delivered him, with all his people and his land, into your hand. You shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.” [3] So Yahweh our God also delivered into our hand Og, the king of Bashan, and all his people. We struck him until no one was left to him remaining. [4] We took all his cities at that time. There was not a city which we didn’t take from them: sixty cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan. [5] All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates, and bars, in addition to a great many villages without walls. [6] We utterly destroyed them, as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones. [7] But all the livestock, and the plunder of the cities, we took for plunder for ourselves. [8] We took the land at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, from the valley of the Arnon to Mount Hermon. [9] (The Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir.) [10] We took all the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, to Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan. [11] (For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the Rephaim. Behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron. Isn’t it in Rabbah of the children of Ammon? Nine cubitsⓘ was its length, and four cubits its width, after the cubit of a man.) [12] This land we took in possession at that time: from Aroer, which is by the valley of the Arnon, and half the hill country of Gilead with its cities, I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites; [13] and the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh—all the region of Argob, even all Bashan. (The same is called the land of Rephaim. [14] Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob, to the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and called them, even Bashan, after his own name, Havvoth Jair, to this day.) [15] I gave Gilead to Machir. [16] To the Reubenites and to the Gadites I gave from Gilead even to the valley of the Arnon, the middle of the valley, and its border, even to the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon; [17] the Arabah also, and the Jordan and its border, from Chinnereth even to the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah eastward. [18] I commanded you at that time, saying, “Yahweh your God has given you this land to possess it. All of you men of valor shall pass over armed before your brothers, the children of Israel. [19] But your wives, and your little ones, and your livestock, (I know that you have much livestock), shall live in your cities which I have given you, [20] until Yahweh gives rest to your brothers, as to you, and they also possess the land which Yahweh your God gives them beyond the Jordan. Then you shall each return to his own possession, which I have given you.” [21] I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, “Your eyes have seen all that Yahweh your God has done to these two kings. So shall Yahweh do to all the kingdoms where you go over. [22] You shall not fear them; for Yahweh your God himself fights for you.” [23] I begged Yahweh at that time, saying, [24] “Lord§ Yahweh, you have begun to show your servant your greatness, and your strong hand. For what god is there in heaven or in earth that can do works like yours, and mighty acts like yours? [25] Please let me go over and see the good land that is beyond the Jordan, that fine mountain, and Lebanon.” [26] But Yahweh was angry with me because of you, and didn’t listen to me. Yahweh said to me, “That is enough! Speak no more to me of this matter. [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 shall not go over this Jordan. [28] But commission Joshua, and encourage him, and strengthen him; for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land which you shall see.” [29] So we stayed in the valley near Beth Peor.

King James Version
[1] Then we turned, H6437 (QalImpf) and went up H5927 (QalImpf) the way H1870 to Bashan: H1316 and Og H5747 the king H4428 of Bashan H1316 came out H3318 (QalImpf) against H7125 (QalInf) us, he and all his people, H5971 to battle H4421 at Edrei. H154 [2] And the Lord H3068 said H559 (QalImpf) unto me, Fear H3372 (QalImpf) him not: for I will deliver H5414 (QalPerf) him, and all his people, H5971 and his land, H776 into thy hand; H3027 and thou shalt do H6213 (QalPerf) unto him as thou didst H6213 (QalPerf) unto Sihon H5511 king H4428 of the Amorites, H567 which dwelt H3427 (QalActPtc) at Heshbon. H2809 [3] So the Lord H3068 our God H430 delivered H5414 (QalImpf) into our hands H3027 Og H5747 also, the king H4428 of Bashan, H1316 and all his people: H5971 and we smote H5221 (HiphImpf) him until none was left H7604 (HiphPerf) to him remaining. H8300 [4] And we took H3920 (QalImpf) all his cities H5892 at that time, H6256 there was not a city H7151 which we took H3947 (QalPerf) not from them, threescore H8346 cities, H5892 all the region H2256 of Argob, H709 the kingdom H4467 of Og H5747 in Bashan. H1316 [5] All these cities H5892 were fenced H1219 (QalPasPtc) with high H1364 walls, H2346 gates, H1817 and bars; H1280 beside unwalled H6521 towns H5892 a great H3966 many. H7235 (HiphInf) [6] And we utterly destroyed H2763 (HiphImpf) them, as we did H6213 (QalPerf) unto Sihon H5511 king H4428 of Heshbon, H2809 utterly destroying H2763 (HiphInf) the men, H4962 women, H802 and children, H2945 of every city. H5892 [7] But all the cattle, H929 and the spoil H7998 of the cities, H5892 we took for a prey H962 (QalPerf) to ourselves. [8] And we took H3947 at that time H6256 out H3947 (QalImpf) of the hand H3027 of the two H8147 kings H4428 of the Amorites H567 the land H776 that was on this side H5676 Jordan, H3383 from the river H5158 of Arnon H769 unto mount H2022 Hermon; H2768 [9] (which Hermon H2768 the Sidonians H6722 call H7121 (QalImpf) Sirion; H8303 and the Amorites H567 call H7121 (QalImpf) it Shenir;) H8149 [10] all the cities H5892 of the plain, H4334 and all Gilead, H1568 and all Bashan, H1316 unto Salchah H5548 and Edrei, H154 cities H5892 of the kingdom H4467 of Og H5747 in Bashan. H1316 [11] For only Og H5747 king H4428 of Bashan H1316 remained H7604 (NiphPerf) of the remnant H3499 of giants; H7497 behold, his bedstead H6210 was a bedstead H6210 of iron; H1270 is it not H3808 in Rabbath H7237 of the children H1121 of Ammon? H5983 nine H8672 cubits H520 was the length H753 thereof, and four H702 cubits H520 the breadth H7341 of it, after the cubit H520 of a man. H376 [12] And this land, H776 which we possessed H3423 (QalPerf) at that time, H6256 from Aroer, H6177 which is by the river H5158 Arnon, H769 and half H2677 mount H2022 Gilead, H1568 and the cities H5892 thereof, gave H5414 (QalPerf) I unto the Reubenites H7206 and to the Gadites. H1425 [13] And the rest H3499 of Gilead, H1568 and all Bashan, H1316 being the kingdom H4467 of Og, H5747 gave H5414 (QalPerf) I unto the half H2677 tribe H7626 of Manasseh; H4519 all the region H2256 of Argob, H709 with all Bashan, H1316 which H1931 was called H7121 (NiphImpf) the land H776 of giants. H7497 [14] Jair H2971 the son H1121 of Manasseh H4519 took H3947 (QalPerf) all the country H2256 of Argob H709 unto the coasts H1366 of Geshuri H1651 and Maachathi; H4602 and called H7121 (QalImpf) them after his own name, H8034 Bashan-havoth-jair, H1316 unto this day. H3117 [15] And I gave H5414 (QalPerf) Gilead H1568 unto Machir. H4353 [16] And unto the Reubenites H7206 and unto the Gadites H1425 I gave H5414 (QalPerf) from Gilead H1568 even unto the river H5158 Arnon H769 half H8432 the valley, H5158 and the border H1366 even unto the river H5158 Jabbok, H2999 which is the border H1366 of the children H1121 of Ammon; H5983 [17] the plain H6160 also, and Jordan, H3383 and the coast H1366 thereof, from Chinnereth H3672 even unto the sea H3220 of the plain, H6160 even the salt H4417 sea, H3220 under Ashdoth-pisgah H798 (Ketiv)§ eastward. H4217 [18] And I commanded H6680 (PielImpf) you at that time, H6256 saying, H559 (QalInf) The Lord H3068 your God H430 hath given H5414 (QalPerf) you this land H776 to possess H3423 (QalInf) it: ye shall pass over H5674 (QalImpf) armed H2502 (QalPasPtc) before H6440 your brethren H251 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 all that are meet H1121 for the war. H2428§ [19] But your wives, H802 and your little ones, H2945 and your cattle, H4735 (for I know H3045 (QalPerf) that ye have much H7227 cattle,) H4735 shall abide H3427 (QalImpf) in your cities H5892 which I have given H5414 (QalPerf) you; [20] until the Lord H3068 have given rest H5117 (HiphImpf) unto your brethren, H251 as well as unto you, and until they also possess H3423 (QalPerf) the land H776 which the Lord H3068 your God H430 hath given H5414 (QalActPtc) them beyond H5676 Jordan: H3383 and then shall ye return H7725 (QalPerf) every man H376 unto his possession, H3425 which I have given H5414 (QalPerf) you. [21] And I commanded H6680 (PielPerf) Joshua H3091 at that time, H6256 saying, H559 (QalInf) Thine eyes H5869 have seen H7200 (QalActPtc) all that the Lord H3068 your God H430 hath done H6213 (QalPerf) unto these two H8147 kings: H4428 so shall the Lord H3068 do H6213 (QalImpf) unto all the kingdoms H4467 whither thou passest. H5674 (QalActPtc) [22] Ye shall not fear H3372 (QalImpf) them: for the Lord H3068 your God H430 he shall fight H3898 (NiphPtc) for you. [23] And I besought H2603 (HithImpf) the Lord H3068 at that time, H6256 saying, H559 (QalInf) [24] O Lord H136 God, H3069 thou hast begun H2490 (HiphPerf) to shew H7200 (HiphInf) thy servant H5650 thy greatness, H1433 and thy mighty H2389 hand: H3027 for what God H410 is there in heaven H8064 or in earth, H776 that can do H6213 (QalImpf) according to thy works, H4639 and according to thy might? H1369 [25] I pray thee, let me go over, H5674 (QalImpf) and see H7200 (QalImpf) the good H2896 land H776 that is beyond H5676 Jordan, H3383 that goodly H2896 mountain, H2022 and Lebanon. H3844 [26] But the Lord H3068 was wroth H5674 (HithImpf) with me for your sakes, and would not hear H8085 (QalPerf) me: and the Lord H3068 said H559 (QalImpf) unto me, Let it suffice H7227 thee; speak H1696 (PielInf) no more H3254 (HiphImpf) unto me of this matter. H1697 [27] Get thee up H5927 (QalImpv) into the top H7218 of Pisgah, H6449§ and lift up H5375 (QalImpv) thine eyes H5869 westward, H3220 and northward, H6828 and southward, H8486 and eastward, H4217 and behold H7200 (QalImpv) it with thine eyes: H5869 for thou shalt not go over H5674 (QalImpf) this Jordan. H3383 [28] But charge H6680 (PielImpv) Joshua, H3091 and encourage H2388 (PielImpv) him, and strengthen H553 (PielImpv) him: for he shall go over H5674 (QalImpf) before H6440 this people, H5971 and he shall cause them to inherit H5157 (HiphImpf) the land H776 which thou shalt see. H7200 (QalImpf) [29] So we abode H3427 (QalImpf) in the valley H1516 over against H4136 Beth-peor. H1047
