New Testament

Deuteronomy 2:29-35 English Standard Version (ESV)

29. as the sons of Esau who live in Seir and the Moabites who live in Ar did for me, until I go over the Jordan into the land that the Lord our God is giving to us.’

30. But Sihon the king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him, for the Lord your God hardened his spirit and made his heart obstinate, that he might give him into your hand, as he is this day.

31. And the Lord said to me, ‘Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land over to you. Begin to take possession, that you may occupy his land.’

32. Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Jahaz.

33. And the Lord our God gave him over to us, and we defeated him and his sons and all his people.

34. And we captured all his cities at that time and devoted to destruction every city, men, women, and children. We left no survivors.

35. Only the livestock we took as spoil for ourselves, with the plunder of the cities that we captured.
