And Yahweh said unto me: Do not fear him, for into thy hand, have I delivered him and all his people and his land, - so then thou shalt do unto him, as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites who was dwelling in Heshbon.

Then did Yahweh our God deliver into our hand, Og also, king of Bashan and all his people, - so we smote him until there was not left remaining to him a survivor.

And we captured all his cities, at that time, there was no fortress which we took not from them, - sixty cities all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

All these, were fortified cities each with a high wall, folding gates and a bar, - besides country towns exceeding many.

And we devoted them to destruction, doing unto them as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, - devoting to destruction every city of males, the women, and the little ones.

But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, made we our prey.

Sidonians, call Hermon Sirion, - but, the Amorites, call it Senir.

All the cities of the table-land, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, - unto Salecah, and Edrei, - cities of the kingdom of Og, in Bashan.
