1 Nu 33.40When the Canaanite king of Aradin the southern part of Canaan heard that the Israelites were coming by way of Atharim, he attacked them and captured some of them. 2 Then the Israelites made a vow to the Lord: "If you will let us conquer these people, we will unconditionally dedicate21.2: unconditionally dedicate: Anything dedicated in this way belonged completely to the Lord and could not be used; it had to be destroyed.them and their cities to you and will destroy them." 3 The Lordheard them and helped them conquer the Canaanites. So the Israelites completely destroyed them and their cities, and named the place Hormah.21.3: Hormah: This name in Hebrew means "destruction."
The Snake Made of Bronze
4 Dt 2.1The Israelites left Mount Horby the road that leads to the Gulf of Aqaba, in order to go around the territory of Edom. But on the way the people lost their patience 5 1 Co 10.9and spoke against God and Moses. They complained, "Why did you bring us out of Egyptto die in this desert, where there is no food or water? We can’t stand any more of this miserable food!" 6 Then the Lordsent poisonous snakes among the people, and many Israelites were bitten and died. 7 The people came to Mosesand said, "We sinned when we spoke against the Lordand against you. Now pray to the Lordto take these snakes away." So Mosesprayed for the people. 8 Then the Lordtold Mosesto make a metal snake and put it on a pole, so that anyone who was bitten could look at it and be healed. 9 2 K 18.4;Jn 3.14So Mosesmade a bronze snake and put it on a pole. Anyone who had been bitten would look at the bronze snake and be healed.
From Mount Hor to the Valley of the Moabites
10 The Israelites moved on and camped at Oboth. 11 After leaving that place, they camped at the ruins of Abarim in the wilderness east of Moabiteterritory. 12 Then they camped in Zered Valley. 13 From there they moved again and camped on the north side of the Arnon River, in the wilderness which extends into Amorite territory. (The Arnonwas the border between the Moabitesand the Amorites.) 14 That is why The Book of the Lord's Battles speaks of "… the town of Wahebin the area of Suphah, and the valleys; the Arnon River, 15 and the slope of the valleys that extend to the town of Arand toward the border of Moab."
16 From there they went on to a place called Wells, where the Lordsaid to Moses, "Bring the people together, and I will give them water." 17 At that time the people of Israel sang this song:
"Wells, produce your water;
And we will greet it with a song—
18 The well dug by princes
And by leaders of the people,
Dug with a royal scepter
And with their walking sticks."
They moved from the wilderness to Mattanah, 19 and from there they went on to Nahaliel, and from Nahalielto Bamoth, 20 and from Bamothto the valley in the territory of the Moabites, below the top of Mount Pisgah, looking out over the desert.
21 Then the people of Israel sent messengers to the Amorite king Sihonto say: 22 "Let us pass through your land. We and our cattle will not leave the road and go into your fields or vineyards, and we will not drink water from your wells; we will stay on the main road21.22: main road; or King’s Highway.until we are out of your territory." 23 But Sihonwould not permit the people of Israel to pass through his territory. He gathered his army and went out to Jahazin the wilderness and attacked the Israelites. 24 But the Israelites killed many of the enemy in battle and occupied their land from the Arnon Rivernorth to the Jabbok, that is, to the Ammonites, because the Ammoniteborder was strongly defended.21.24: because … strongly defended; some ancient translations as far as Jazer on the Ammonite border.25 So the people of Israel captured all the Amorite cities, including Heshbonand all the surrounding towns, and settled in them. 26 Heshbonwas the capital city of the Amorite king Sihon, who had fought against the former king of Moaband had captured all his land as far as the Arnon River. 27 That is why the poets sing,
"Come to Heshbon, to King Sihon’s city!
We want to see it rebuilt and restored.
28 Jr 48.45,46Once from this city of Heshbon
Sihon’s army went forth like a fire;
It destroyed the city of Arin Moab
And devoured21.28: One ancient translation devoured; Hebrew the lords of.the hills of the upper Arnon.
29 How terrible for you, people of Moab!
You worshipers of Chemosh are brought to ruin!
Your god let the men become refugees,
And the women became captives of the Amorite king.
30 But now their descendants are destroyed,
All the way from Heshbonto Dibon,
From Nashim to Nophah, near Medeba."21.30: Verse 30 in Hebrew is unclear.
31 So the people of Israel settled in the territory of the Amorites, 32 and Mosessent men to find the best way to attack the city of Jazer. The Israelites captured it and its surrounding towns and drove out the Amorites living there.
33 Then the Israelites turned and took the road to Bashan, and King Ogof Bashanmarched out with his army to attack them at Edrei. 34 The Lordsaid to Moses, "Do not be afraid of him. I will give you victory over him, all his people, and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon, the Amorite king who ruled at Heshbon." 35 So the Israelites killed Og, his sons, and all his people, leaving no survivors, and then they occupied his land.
