- And the lords of the high places of Arnon.
- Woe to thee, Moab!
- Thou art undone, O people of Chemosh:
- He hath given his sons that escaped,
- And his daughters, into captivity
- Unto Sihon king of the Amorites.
- We have shot at them; Heshbon is perished even unto Dibon,
- And we have laid them waste even unto Nophah,
- Which reacheth unto Medeba.
Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites. And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the villages thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there.
And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he, and all his people, to the battle at Edrei. And the Lord said unto Moses, Fear him not: for I have delivered him into thy hand, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon. So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left him alive: and they possessed his land.
And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in the plains of Moab on this side Jordan by Jericho.
