7: Therefore cameH0935 the peopleH5971 toH0413 Moses,H4872 and said,H0559 we have sinned,H2398 forH3588 we have spokenH1696 against Yahweh,H3068 prayH6419 toH0413 Yahweh,H3068 that He take awayH5493 from usH5921 -H0853 the serpentsH5175 so prayedH6419 MosesH4872 forH1157 the people.H5971

10: And moved on,H5265 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 and campedH2583 in Oboth.H0088

21: And sentH7971 IsraelH3478 messengersH4397 toH0413 SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the Amorites,H0567 saying,H0559

22: let me passH5674 through your land.H0776 NotH3808 we will turn asideH5186 into fields,H7704 or vineyards-H3754 notH3808 we will drinkH8354 water fromH4325 wells.H0875 By Highway,H1870 of the KingH4428 we will goH1980 untilH5704 thatH0834 we have passed throughH5674 your territory.H1366

23: But notH3808 would allowH5414 SihonH5511 -H0853 IsraelH3478 to passH5674 through his territory.H1366 So gathered togetherH0622 SihonH5511 -H0853 allH3605 his peopleH5971 and went outH3318 againstH7125 IsraelH3478 in the wilderness,H4057 and he cameH0935 to Jahaz,H3096 and foughtH3898 against Israel.H3478

24: And defeated himH5221 IsraelH3478 with the edgeH6310 of the sword,H2719 and took possessionH3423 ofH0853 his landH0776 from the ArnonH0769 toH5704 the Jabbok,H2999 as far asH5704 the sonsH1121 of Ammon-H5983 forH3588 [was] fortified.H5794 The borderH1366 of the sonsH1121 of Ammon.H5983

26: ForH3588 HeshbonH2809 the cityH5892 of SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the Amorites,H0567 wasH1931 and heH1931 had foughtH3898 against kingH4428 of Moab,H4124 the formerH7223 and had takenH3947 -H0853 allH3605 his landH0776 from his hand,H3027 as far asH5704 the Arnon.H0769

27: UponH5921 thusH3651 say,H0559 those who speak in proverbsH4911 comeH0935 to Heshbon,H2809 let it be builtH1129 and let be repairedH3559 the cityH5892 of Sihon.H5511

29: WoeH0188 Moab!H4124 You have perished,H0006 peopleH5971 of Chemosh!H3645 He has givenH5414 his sonsH1121 as fugitives,H6412 and his daughters,H1323 into captivityH7628 to kingH4428 of the AmoritesH0567 Sihon.H5511

30: But we have shot at themH3384 has perishedH0006 HeshbonH2809 as far asH5704 Dibon,H1769 and we laid wasteH8074 as far asH5704 Nophah,H5302 which [reaches]H0834 toH5704 Medeba.H4311

31: Thus dweltH3427 IsraelH3478 in the landH0776 of the Amorites.H0567

32: And sentH7971 MosesH4872 to spy outH7270 -H0853 Jazer,H3270 and they tookH3920 its villagesH1323 and drove outH3423 -H0853 the AmoritesH0567 who [were]H0834 there.H8033

33: And they turnedH6437 and went upH5927 by the way toH1870 Bashan,H1316 so went outH3318 OgH5747 kingH4428 of BashanH1316 against themH7125 he,H1931 and allH3605 his people,H5971 to battleH4421 at Edrei.H0154

34: And saidH0559 YahwehH3068 toH0413 Moses,H4872 not-H0408 do fearH3372 himH0853 forH3588 into your hand,H3027 I have deliveredH5414 himH0853 andH0853 allH3605 with his people,H5971 andH0853 his land-H0776 and you shall doH6213 asH0834 you didH6213 to SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the Amorites,H0567 whoH0834 dweltH3427 at Heshbon.H2809

35: So they defeatedH5221 himH0853 andH0853 his sons,H1121 andH0853 allH3605 his people,H5971 untilH5704 noH1115 there was leftH7604 survivor-H8300 and they took possessionH3423 ofH0853 his land.H0776
