Numbers 21:33-35
33Then they turned and went up by the way to Bashan. And Og the king of Bashan came out against them, he and all his people, to battle aat Edrei. 34 bBut the Lord said to Moses, “Do not fear him, for I have given him into your hand, and all his people, and his land. And cyou shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.” 35So they defeated him and his sons and all his people, until he had no survivor left. And they possessed his land.Deuteronomy 3:1-14
The Defeat of King Og
1“Then we turned and went up the way to Bashan. And dOg the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at eEdrei. 2But the Lord said to me, ‘Do not fear him, for I have given him and all his people and his land into your hand. And you shall do to him as you did to fSihon the king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.’ 3So the Lord our God gave into our hand Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people, gand we struck him down until he had no survivor left. 4And we took all his cities at that time—there was not a city that we did not take from them—sixty cities, hthe whole region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan. 5All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates, and bars, besides very many unwalled villages. 6And iwe devoted them to destruction, ▼▼That is, set apart ( devoted) as an offering to the Lord (for destruction); twice in this verse
as we did to Sihon the king of Heshbon, devoting to destruction every kcity, men, women, and children. 7But all the livestock and the spoil of the cities we took as our plunder. 8So we took the land at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, from the Valley of the Arnon to Mount Hermon 9(the Sidonians call lHermon mSirion, while the Amorites call it nSenir), 10all the cities of the otableland and all Gilead and all Bashan, as far as pSalecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan. 11(For qonly Og the king of Bashan was left of the remnant of rthe Rephaim. Behold, his bed was a bed of iron. Is it not in sRabbah of the Ammonites? Nine cubits ▼▼A cubit was about 18 inches or 45 centimeters
was its length, and four cubits its breadth, according to the ucommon cubit. ▼▼Hebrew cubit of a man
) 12“When we took possession of this land at that time, I gave to the Reubenites and the Gadites the territory beginning wat Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, and half the hill country of Gilead with xits cities. 13 yThe rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, that is, zall the region of Argob, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh. (All that portion of Bashan is called the land of aaRephaim. 14 abJair the Manassite took all the region of Argob, that is, Bashan, as far as the border of acthe Geshurites and the Maacathites, and called the villages adafter his own name, Havvoth-jair, as it is to this day.)
Deuteronomy 29:7-8
7And when you came to this place, aeSihon the king of Heshbon and Og the king of Bashan came out against us to battle, but we defeated them. 8We took their land and afgave it for an inheritance to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of the Manassites.
