The Book of Deuteronomy 3

3 And we turned and went up the road of the Bashan. And Og, the king of the Bashan, came out against us, he and all his people, to the battle at Edrei. 2 And Yahweh said to me, ‘You shall not fear him; for I have given him and all his people and his land into your hand. And you will do to him as you did to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.’

3 And Yahweh our God also gave Og the king of Bashan and all his people into our hands. And we struck him down until not a survivor of his remained. 4 And we captured all his cities at that time. There was not a city of 60 cities that we did not take from them—all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan. 5 All these were inaccessible cities with high walls and gates and bars, besides very many unwalled villages. 6 And we destroyed them, as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying every city—men, the women, and the children. 7 But all the cattle and the spoil of the cities we plundered for ourselves.

8 And we took at that time the land from the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were across the Jordan, from the Valley of Arnon to Mount Hermon 9 (The Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir), 10 all the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, as far as Salekah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.” 11 (For only Og king of Bashan had remained from the remnant of the Raphaites. Behold, his couch was a couch of iron. Is it not in Rabbah, of the sons of Ammon? It was nine cubits long and four cubits wide, by the cubit of man.)

12 “And we took in possession this land at that time—from Aroer, that is by the Valley of Arnon, and half the hill country of Gilead, and 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 half of the tribe of Manasseh. (All the region of Argob, to all Bashan. The same is called the land of the Raphaites. 14 Jair, son of Manasseh, took all the region of Argob as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites. And he called it, Bashan, by his name, Havvoth Jair, to this day.)

15 And to Machir I gave Gilead. 16 And to the Reubenites and to the Gadites I gave from Gilead and as far as the Valley of Arnon, the middle of the valley as a border, and as far as the Jabbok River, the border of the sons of Ammon, 17 and the Arabah, and the Jordan as a border, from Kinnereth and to the Sea of Arabah (the Salt Sea) under the slopes of the Pisgah eastward.

18 And I commanded you at that time, saying, ‘Yahweh your God has given to you this land to possess it. The girded ones, all sons of bravery, will cross over before the faces of your brothers, the sons of Israel. 19 Only your women and your children, and your cattle (I know that you have much cattle), will stay in your cities that I have given to you 20 until Yahweh causes your brothers, as you, to have rest. And they themselves will also possess the land that Yahweh your God is giving to them across the Jordan. And you will return, every man, to his inheritance that I have given to you.’

21 And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, ‘Your eyes have seen all that Yahweh your God has done to these two kings. Thus Yahweh will do to all the kingdoms that you will be passing through there. 22 Do not fear them, for Yahweh your God, he himself will fight for you.’

23 And I sought compassion from Yahweh at that time, saying, 24 ‘My Lord Yahweh, you yourself have begun to show your servant your greatness and your strong hand. What god is in heaven or on earth that does works as your works and as your mighty deeds? 25 Let me cross, please, and see the good land that is across the Jordan, that good hill country, and Lebanon.’

26 But Yahweh was angry with me because of you, and he did not listen to me. And Yahweh said to me, ‘Enough for you—you shall not continue speaking to me again on this matter. 27 Go up the head of Pisgah and lift up your eyes westward and northward and southward, and eastward. And look with your eyes, for you will not cross this Jordan. 28 And instruct Joshua and encourage him and strengthen him, for he himself will cross over before the faces of this people, and he himself will cause them to inherit the land that you will see.’

29 And we stayed in the valley opposite Beth Peor.
