23 And Siʹhon did not allow Israel to pass through his territory,+ but Siʹhon gathered all his people and went out to meet Israel in the wilderness, and came to Jaʹhaz+ and began fighting with Israel.

24 At that Israel struck him with the edge of the sword+ and took possession of his land+ from the Arʹnon+ to the Jabʹbok,+ near the sons of Amʹmon; because Jaʹzer*+ is the border of the sons of Amʹmon.+

31 “At this Jehovah said to me, ‘See, I have started to abandon Siʹhon and his land to you. Start to take possession of his land.’+
