Deuteronomy 2:26–33

²⁶And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sihon king of Heshbon ^fwith words of peace, saying, ^27gLet me pass through thy land: I will go along by the high way, I will neither turn unto the right hand nor to the left. ^28hThou shalt sell me meat for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink: only I will pass through on my feet; ²⁹ⁱ(As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and the Moabites which dwell in Ar, did unto me;) until I shall pass over Jordan into the land which the Lord our God giveth us. ³⁰But ^kSihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him: for the Lord thy God ^lhardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as appeareth this day. ³¹And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land before thee: ^mbegin to possess, that thou mayest inherit his land. ³²Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to fight ⁿat Jahaz. ³³And ^othe Lord our God delivered him before us; and ^pwe smote him, and his sons, and all his people.
