[3:1] “Next, we moved north toward the region of Bashan, and King Og came out with all his men to fight us near the town of Edrei.
[3:2] But the Lord said to me, ‘Don't be afraid of him. I am going to give him, his men, and all his territory to you. Do the same thing to him that you did to Sihon the Amorite king who ruled in Heshbon.’
[3:3] “So the Lord also placed King Og and his people in our power, and we slaughtered them all.
[3:4] At the same time we captured all his towns—there was not one that we did not take. In all we captured sixty towns—the whole region of Argob, where King Og of Bashan ruled.
[3:5] All these towns were fortified with high walls, gates, and bars to lock the gates, and there were also many villages without walls.
[3:6] We destroyed all the towns and put to death all the men, women, and children, just as we did in the towns that belonged to King Sihon of Heshbon.
[3:7] We took the livestock and plundered the towns.
[3:8] “At that time we took from those two Amorite kings the land east of the Jordan River, from the Arnon River to Mount Hermon. (
[3:9] Mount Hermon is called Sirion by the Sidonians, and Senir by the Amorites.)
[3:10] We took all the territory of King Og of Bashan: the cities on the plateau, the regions of Gilead and of Bashan, as far east as the towns of Salecah and Edrei.” (
[3:11] King Og was the last of the Rephaim. His coffin, made of stone, was six feet wide and almost fourteen feet long, according to standard measurements. It can still be seen in the Ammonite city of Rabbah.)
