*
This day I will begin to put the dread and fear of you upon the nations under the whole heaven ,
who shall hear the report of you ,
and shall tremble and be in anguish because of you .'
* "
And I sent messengers from the Wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon king of Heshbon ,
with words of peace ,
saying ,
* "
Let me pass through your land ;
I will keep strictly to the road ,
and I will turn neither to the right nor to the left .
*
You shall sell me food for money ,
that I may eat ,
and give me water for money ,
that I may drink ;
only let me pass through on foot ,
*
just as the descendants of Esau who dwell in Seir and the Moabites who dwell in Ar did for me ,
until I cross the Jordan to the land which the LORD our God is giving us .'
* "
But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass through ,
for the LORD your God hardened his spirit and made his heart obstinate ,
that He might deliver him into your hand ,
as it is this day .
* "
And the LORD said to me , "
See ,
I have begun to give Sihon and his land over to you .
Begin to possess it ,
that you may inherit his land .'
*
Then Sihon and all his people came out against us to fight at Jahaz .
*
And the LORD our God delivered him over to us ;
so we defeated him ,
his sons ,
and all his people .
*
We took all his cities at that time ,
and we utterly destroyed the men ,
women ,
and little ones of every city ;
we left none remaining .
*
We took only the livestock as plunder for ourselves ,
with the spoil of the cities which we took .
*
From Aroer ,
which is on the bank of the River Arnon ,
and from the city that is in the ravine ,
as far as Gilead ,
there was not one city too strong for us ;
the LORD our God delivered all to us .
*
Only you did not go near the land of the people of Ammon--anywhere along the River Jabbok ,
or to the cities of the mountains ,
or wherever the LORD our God had forbidden us .
