Deuteronomy 3:1-12 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

1. “Next we turned and went up the way to the Bashan. King Og of the Bashan came out against us—he and all his people—for battle at Edrei.

2. But Adonai said to me, ‘Do not fear him, for I have handed him over and all his people and his land. You will do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.’

3. “So Adonai our God also handed over King Og of the Bashan and all his people, and we struck him down until no survivor was left.

4. We captured all his cities at that time—there was not a town that we did not take from them—sixty cities, the whole region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in the Bashan.

5. All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates and bars, in addition to a great many unwalled towns.

6. We utterly destroyed them, just as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying every city—men, women and children.

7. But all the livestock and the spoils of the cities we took as plunder for ourselves.

8. “So at that time we took from the hand of the two kings of the Amorites the land across the Jordan, from the Wadi Arnon to Mount Hermon.

9. (Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir.)

10. We took all the cities of the plain and all the Gilead and all the Bashan, as far as Salcah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in the Bashan.

11. (For only King Og of the Bashan survived from the remnant of the Rephaim. In fact, his bed was made of iron—is it not in Rabbah of the Ammonites? Nine cubits was its length and four cubits its width, according to the cubit of a man.)

12. “This land we took in possession at that time—from Aroer by the Wadi Arnon and half the hill country of the Gilead and its cities—I gave to the Reubenites and Gadites.
