8“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 9(The Sidonians called Hermon ‘Sirion,’ and the Amorites called it ‘Senir.’) 10All 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. 11(For only Og, king of Bashan, was left from the remnant of the Rephaim. Indeed, his bedstead—it was a bedstead of iron. It is in Rabbah of the Ammonites.n Nine cubits is its length, and four cubits is its width according to the cubit of a man.)

12And so we took possession of this land at that time, from Aroer, which is on the edge of the wadio of Arnon, and also half of the hill country of Gilead and its towns I gave to the Reubenitesp and to the Gadites.q 13And the remainder of Gilead and all of Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh, the whole region of Argob. All of that area of Bashan was called the land of the Rephaim. 14Jair the descendantr of Manasseh acquired the whole region of Argob, up to the boundary of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and he called it,s that is Bashan, after his own name, Havvoth Jair, as it still is today.t 15And also I gave Gilead to Makir. 16And to the Reubenitesu and to the Gaditesv I gave, from Gilead up to the wadiw of Arnon, the middle of the wadix as a boundary and up to the Jabbok River,y the boundary of the Ammonites.z 17And the Jordan Valleya with the Jordan River as its boundary, from Kinnerethb up to the Sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea,c with the slopes of Pisgah toward the east.
