Deuteronomy 2:28-37 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

28. Sell us meat for money, that we may eat: give us water for money and so we will drink. We only ask that thou wilt let us pass through,

29. As the children of Esau have done, that dwell in Seir, and the Moabites, that abide in Ar: until we come to the Jordan, and pass to the land which the Lord our God will give us.

30. And Sehon the king of Hesebon would not let us pass: because the Lord thy God had hardened his spirit, and fixed his heart, that he might be delivered into thy hands, as now thou seest.

31. And the Lord said to me: Behold I have begun to deliver unto thee Sehon and his land, begin to possess it.

32. And Sehon came out to meet us with all his people to fight at Jasa.

33. And the Lord our God delivered him to us: and we slew him with his sons and all his people.

34. And we took all his cities at that time, killing the inhabitants of them, men and women and children. We left nothing of them:

35. Except the cattle which came to the share of them that took them: and the spoils of the cities, which we took:

36. From Aroer, which is upon the bank of the torrent Amen, a town that is situate in a valley, as far as Galaad. There was not a village or city, that escaped our hands: the Lord our God delivered all unto us:

37. Except the land of the children of Ammon, to which we approached not: and all that border upon the torrent Jeboc, and the cities in the mountains, and all the places which the Lord our God forbade us.
