At that time we captured all his towns; there was no citadel that we did not take from them: sixty towns, the whole region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.(A) All these were fortress towns with high walls, double gates, and bars, besides a great many villages. And we utterly destroyed them, as we had done to King Sihon of Heshbon, in each city utterly destroying men, women, and children.(B) But all the livestock and the plunder of the towns we kept as spoil for ourselves.

At that time we took all his cities.(A) There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them—the whole region of Argob, Og’s kingdom(B) in Bashan.(C) All these cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars, and there were also a great many unwalled villages. We completely destroyed[a] them, as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying[b](D) every city—men, women and children. But all the livestock(E) and the plunder from their cities we carried off for ourselves.
