We will go by the king’s highway until we have passed through your border.” 23 ^cBut Sihon would not permit Israel to pass through his border. So Sihon gathered all his people and went out against Israel in the wilderness, and came to ^dJahaz and fought against Israel. 24 Then ^eIsrael ^{▼▼ Lit smote, so with Gr and Lat}struck him with the edge of the sword, and took possession of his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, as far as the sons of Ammon; for the ^gborder of the sons of Ammon was ^{▼▼ M.T. reads strong}Jazer.
