Scriptures

New Living Translation (NLT)

Deuteronomy 2
³¹ “Then the LORD said to me, ‘Look, I have begun to hand King Sihon and his land over to you. Begin now to conquer and occupy his land.’
³² “Then King Sihon declared war on us and mobilized his forces at Jahaz.
³³ But the LORD our God handed him over to us, and we crushed him, his sons, and all his people.
³⁴ We conquered all his towns and completely destroyed everyone—men, women, and children. Not a single person was spared.
³⁵ We took all the livestock as plunder for ourselves, along with anything of value from the towns we ransacked.
³⁶ “The LORD our God also helped us conquer Aroer on the edge of the Arnon Gorge, and the town in the gorge, and the whole area as far as Gilead. No town had walls too strong for us.
³⁷ However, we avoided the land of the Ammonites all along the Jabbok River and the towns in the hill country—all the places the LORD our God had commanded us to leave alone.
Deuteronomy 3
¹ “Next we turned and headed for the land of Bashan, where King Og and his entire army attacked us at Edrei.
² But the LORD told me, ‘Do not be afraid of him, for I have given you victory over Og and his entire army, and I will give you all his land. Treat him just as you treated King Sihon of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon.’
³ “So the LORD our God handed King Og and all his people over to us, and we killed them all. Not a single person survived.
⁴ We conquered all sixty of his towns—the entire Argob region in his kingdom of Bashan. Not a single town escaped our conquest.
