Numbers 21:21-23

Easy-to-Read Version

Sihon and Og

²¹ The Israelites sent some men to King Sihon of the Amorites. The men said to the king,

²² “Allow us to travel through your country. We will not go through any field or vineyard. We will not drink water from any of your wells. We will travel only along King’s Road. We will stay on that road until we have traveled through your country.”

²³ But King Sihon would not allow the Israelites to travel through his country. He gathered together his army and marched out to the desert to fight against the Israelites. The king’s army fought against the Israelites at Jahaz.
