Deuteronomy 3:1–10

“Then we turned, and we went up the road to Bashan, and Og the king of Bashan came out to meet us, he and all of his army for the battle at Edrei. And Yahweh said to me, ‘You should not fear him, for I have given him and all of his armya and his land into your hand. And so you will do to him as you did to Sihon the king of the Amorites,b who was reigning in Heshbon.’ And so Yahweh our God also gave Og the king of Bashan, and all of his armyc into our hand, and we struck him down until not a survivor remained tod him. And we captured all of his townse at that time; there was not a city that we did not take from them. All of these were fortified towns with high walls, gates, and bars,f apart fromg very many of the villages of the open country. And so we destroyed them just as we had done to Sihon the king of Heshbon; we destroyed utterly each town of males, the women, and the little children. But all of the livestock and the booty of the towns we kept as spoil for ourselves.h

“And so we took at that time the land from the control ofi the two kings of the Amoritesj who were on the other side of the Jordan,k from the wadil of Arnon up to Mount Hermon.m (The Sidonians called Hermon ‘Sirion,’ and the Amorites called it ‘Senir.’) 10 All of the towns of the plateau and the whole of Gilead and all of Bashan up to Salecah and Edrei, the towns of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
