1 A nd the Canaanite,H3669 the kingH4428 of Arad,H6166 who dweltH3427 in the South,H5045 heardH8085 tell that IsraelH3478 cameH935 by the wayH1870 of Atharim;H871 and he foughtH3898 against Israel,H3478 and tookH7617 some of them captive.H7628

2 And IsraelH3478 vowedH5087 a vowH5088 unto Jehovah,H3068 and said,H559 If thou wilt indeedH5414 deliverH5414 this peopleH5971 into my hand,H3027 then I will utterly destroyH2763 their cities.H5892

3 And JehovahH3068 hearkenedH8085 to the voiceH6963 of Israel,H3478 and delivered upH5414 the Canaanites;H3669 and they utterly destroyedH2763 them and their cities:H5892 and the nameH8034 of the placeH4725 was calledH7121 Hormah.H2767

4 And they journeyedH5265 from mountH2022 HorH2023 by the wayH1870 to the RedH5488 Sea,H3220 to compassH5437 the landH776 of Edom:H123 and the soulH5315 of the peopleH5971 was much discouragedH7114 because of the way.H1870

5 And the peopleH5971 spakeH1696 against God,H430 and against Moses,H4872 Wherefore have ye brought us upH5927 out of EgyptH4714 to dieH4191 in the wilderness?H4057 for there is no bread,H3899 and there is no water;H4325 and our soulH5315 loathethH6973 this lightH7052 bread.H3899

6 And JehovahH3068 sentH7971 fieryH8314 serpentsH5175 among the people,H5971 and they bitH5391 the people;H5971 and muchH7227 peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478 died.H4191

7 And the peopleH5971 cameH935 to Moses,H4872 and said,H559 We have sinned,H2398 because we have spokenH1696 against Jehovah,H3068 and against thee; prayH6419 unto Jehovah,H3068 that he take awayH5493 the serpentsH5175 from us. And MosesH4872 prayedH6419 for the people.H5971

8 And JehovahH3068 saidH559 unto Moses,H4872 MakeH6213 thee a fiery serpent,H8314 and setH7760 it upon a standard:H5251 and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten,H5391 when he seethH7200 it, shall live.H2425

9 And MosesH4872 madeH6213 a serpentH5175 of brass,H5178 and setH7760 it upon the standard:H5251 and it came to pass, that if a serpentH5175 had bittenH5391 any man,H376 when he lookedH5027 unto the serpentH5175 of brass,H5178 he lived.H2425

10 And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 journeyed,H5265 and encampedH2583 in Oboth.H88

11 And they journeyedH5265 from Oboth,H88 and encampedH2583 at Iyeabarim,H5863 in the wildernessH4057 which is beforeH6440 Moab,H4124 toward the sunrising.H4217

12 From thence they journeyed,H5265 and encampedH2583 in the valleyH5158 of Zered.H2218

13 From thence they journeyed,H5265 and encampedH2583 on the other sideH5676 of the Arnon,H769 which is in the wilderness,H4057 that cometh outH3318 of the borderH1366 of the Amorites:H567 for the ArnonH769 is the borderH1366 of Moab,H4124 between MoabH4124 and the Amorites.H567

14 Wherefore it is saidH559 in the bookH5612 of the WarsH4421 of Jehovah,H3068 VahebH2052 in Suphah,H5492 And the valleysH5158 of the Arnon,H769

15 And the slopeH793 of the valleysH5158 That inclinethH5186 toward the dwellingH3427 of Ar,H6144 And leanethH8172 upon the borderH1366 of Moab.H4124

16 And from thence [they journeyed] to Beer:H876 that is the wellH875 whereof JehovahH3068 saidH559 unto Moses,H4872 GatherH622 the peopleH5971 together,H622 and I will giveH5414 them water.H4325

17 Then sangH7891 IsraelH3478 this song:H7892 Spring up,H5927 O well;H875 singH6030 ye unto it:

18 The well,H875 which the princesH8269 digged,H2658 Which the noblesH5081 of the peopleH5971 delved,H3738 With the sceptre,H2710 [and] with their staves.H4938 And from the wildernessH4057 [they journeyed] to Mattanah;H4980

19 and from MattanahH4980 to Nahaliel;H5160 and from NahalielH5160 to Bamoth;H1120

20 and from BamothH1120 to the valleyH1516 that is in the fieldH7704 of Moab,H4124 to the topH7218 of Pisgah,H6449 which lookethH8259 downH6440 upon the desert.H3452

21 And IsraelH3478 sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the Amorites,H567 saying,H559

22 Let me passH5674 through thy land:H776 we will not turnH5186 aside into field,H7704 or into vineyard;H3754 we will not drinkH8354 of the waterH4325 of the wells:H875 we will goH3212 by the king'sH4428 highway,H1870 until we have passedH5674 thy border.H1366

23 And SihonH5511 would not sufferH5414 IsraelH3478 to passH5674 through his border:H1366 but SihonH5511 gatheredH622 all his peopleH5971 together,H622 and went outH3318 againstH7125 IsraelH3478 into the wilderness,H4057 and cameH935 to Jahaz;H3096 and he foughtH3898 against Israel.H3478

24 And IsraelH3478 smoteH5221 him with the edgeH6310 of the sword,H2719 and possessedH3423 his landH776 from the ArnonH769 unto the Jabbok,H2999 even unto the childrenH1121 of Ammon;H5983 for the borderH1366 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 was strong.H5794

25 And IsraelH3478 tookH3947 all these cities:H5892 and IsraelH3478 dweltH3427 in all the citiesH5892 of the Amorites,H567 in Heshbon,H2809 and in all the townsH1323 thereof.

26 For HeshbonH2809 was the cityH5892 of SihonH5511 the kingH4428 of the Amorites,H567 who had foughtH3898 against the formerH7223 kingH4428 of Moab,H4124 and takenH3947 all his landH776 out of his hand,H3027 even unto the Arnon.H769

27 Wherefore they that speak in proverbsH4911 say,H559 ComeH935 ye to Heshbon;H2809 Let the cityH5892 of SihonH5511 be builtH1129 and established:H3559

28 For a fireH784 is gone outH3318 of Heshbon,H2809 A flameH3852 from the cityH7151 of Sihon:H5511 It hath devouredH398 ArH6144 of Moab,H4124 The lords of the high placesH1181 of the Arnon.H769

29 WoeH188 to thee, Moab!H4124 Thou art undone,H6 O peopleH5971 of Chemosh:H3645 He hath givenH5414 his sonsH1121 as fugitives,H6412 And his daughtersH1323 into captivity,H7622 Unto SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the Amorites.H567

30 We have shotH3384 at them; HeshbonH2809 is perishedH6 even unto Dibon,H1769 And we have laid wasteH8074 even unto Nophah,H5302 Which [reacheth] unto Medeba.H4311

31 Thus IsraelH3478 dweltH3427 in the landH776 of the Amorites.H567

32 And MosesH4872 sentH7971 to spy outH7270 Jazer;H3270 and they tookH3920 the townsH1323 thereof, and drove outH3423 the AmoritesH567 that were there.

33 And they turnedH6437 and went upH5927 by the wayH1870 of Bashan:H1316 and OgH5747 the kingH4428 of BashanH1316 went outH3318 againstH7125 them, he and all his people,H5971 to battleH4421 at Edrei.H154

34 And JehovahH3068 saidH559 unto Moses,H4872 FearH3372 him not: for I have deliveredH5414 him into thy hand,H3027 and all his people,H5971 and his land;H776 and thou shalt doH6213 to him as thou didstH6213 unto SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the Amorites,H567 who dweltH3427 at Heshbon.H2809

35 So they smoteH5221 him, and his sonsH1121 and all his people,H5971 until there was noneH1115 leftH7604 him remaining:H8300 and they possessedH3423 his land.H776
