27Therefore those who use proverbs say,
         “Come to Heshbon! Let it be built!
         So let the city of Sihon be established.

28“For a fire went forth from Heshbon,
         A flame from the town of Sihon;
         It devoured Ar of Moab,
         The dominant heights of the Arnon.

29“Woe to you, O Moab!
         You are ruined, O people of Chemosh!
         He has given his sons as fugitives,
         And his daughters into captivity,
         To an Amorite king, Sihon.

30“But we have cast them down,
         Heshbon is ruined as far as Dibon,
         Then we have laid waste even to Nophah,
         Which reaches to Medeba.”

      31Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites. 32Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they captured its villages and dispossessed the Amorites who were there.

      33Then they turned and went up by the way of Bashan, and Og the king of Bashan went out with all his people, for battle at Edrei. 34But the LORD said to Moses, “Do not fear him, for I have given him into your hand, and all his people and his land; and you shall do to him as you did to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.” 35So they killed him and his sons and all his people, until there was no remnant left him; and they possessed his land.
