1The Canaanite king of Arad, who lived in the Negev, heard that the Israelites were approaching on the road to Atharim. So he attacked the Israelites and took some of them as prisoners.

2Then the people of Israel made this vow to the LORD: "If you will help us conquer these people, we will completely destroy all their towns."

3The LORD heard their request and gave them victory over the Canaanites. The Israelites completely destroyed them and their towns, and the place has been called Hormah ever since.

4Then the people of Israel set out from Mount Hor, taking the road to the Red Sea to go around the land of Edom. But the people grew impatient along the way,

5and they began to murmur against God and Moses. "Why have you brought us out of Egypt to die here in the wilderness?" they complained. "There is nothing to eat here and nothing to drink. And we hate this wretched manna!"

6So the LORD sent poisonous snakes among them, and many of them were bitten and died.

7Then the people came to Moses and cried out, "We have sinned by speaking against the LORD and against you. Pray that the LORD will take away the snakes." So Moses prayed for the people.

8Then the LORD told him, "Make a replica of a poisonous snake and attach it to the top of a pole. Those who are bitten will live if they simply look at it!"

9So Moses made a snake out of bronze and attached it to the top of a pole. Whenever those who were bitten looked at the bronze snake, they recovered!

10The Israelites traveled next to Oboth and camped there.

11Then they went on to Iye–abarim, in the wilderness on the eastern border of Moab.

12From there they traveled to the valley of Zered Brook and set up camp.

13Then they moved to the far side of the Arnon River, in the wilderness adjacent to the territory of the Amorites. The Arnon is the boundary line between the Moabites and the Amorites.

14For this reason The Book of the Wars of the LORD speaks of "the town of Waheb in the area of Suphah, and the ravines; and the Arnon River

15and its ravines, which extend as far as the settlement of Ar on the border of Moab."

16From there the Israelites traveled to Beer, which is the well where the LORD said to Moses, "Assemble the people, and I will give them water."

17There the Israelites sang this song: "Spring up, O well! Yes, sing about it!

18Sing of this well, which princes dug, which great leaders hollowed out with their scepters and staffs." Then the Israelites left the wilderness and proceeded on through Mattanah,

19Nahaliel, and Bamoth.

20Then they went to the valley in Moab where Pisgah Peak overlooks the wasteland.

21The Israelites now sent ambassadors to King Sihon of the Amorites with this message:

22"Let us travel through your land. We will stay on the king’s road until we have crossed your territory. We will not trample your fields or touch your vineyards or drink your well water."

23But King Sihon refused to let them cross his land. Instead, he mobilized his entire army and attacked Israel in the wilderness, engaging them in battle at Jahaz.

24But the Israelites slaughtered them and occupied their land from the Arnon River to the Jabbok River. They went only as far as the Ammonite border because the boundary of the Ammonites was fortified.

25So Israel captured all the towns of the Amorites and settled in them, including the city of Heshbon and its surrounding villages.

26Heshbon had been the capital of King Sihon of the Amorites. He had conquered a former Moabite king and seized all his land as far as the Arnon River.

27For this reason the ancient poets wrote this about him: "Come to Heshbon, city of Sihon! May it be restored and rebuilt.

28A fire flamed forth from Heshbon, a blaze from the city of Sihon. It burned the city of Ar in Moab; it destroyed the rulers of the Arnon heights.

29Your destruction is certain, O people of Moab! You are finished, O worshipers of Chemosh! Chemosh has left his sons as refugees, and his daughters as captives of Sihon, the Amorite king.

30We have utterly destroyed them, all the way from Heshbon to Dibon. We have completely wiped them out as far away as Nophah and Medeba."

31So the people of Israel occupied the territory of the Amorites.

32After Moses sent men to explore the Jazer area, they captured all the towns in the region and drove out the Amorites who lived there.

33Then they turned and marched toward Bashan, but King Og of Bashan and all his people attacked them at Edrei.

34The LORD said to Moses, "Do not be afraid of him, for I have given you victory over Og and his entire army, giving you all his land. You will do the same to him as you did to King Sihon of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon."

35And Israel was victorious and killed King Og, his sons, and his subjects; not a single survivor remained. Then Israel occupied their land.
