Numbers 21:23-25

Easy-to-Read Version

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.

²⁴ But the Israelites defeated the king and took his land from the Arnon River to the Jabbok River. The Israelites took the land as far as the Ammonite border. They stopped at that border because it was strongly defended by the Ammonites. ²⁵ Israel took all the Amorite cities and began living in them. They even defeated the city of Heshbon and all the small towns around it.
