NU-21:1 And [when] king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the
south, heard
tell that Israel came by the way of the spies; then he fought
against Israel,
and took [some] of them prisoners.
NU-21:2 And Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou
wilt indeed
deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy
their cities.
NU-21:3 And the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel, and
delivered up the
Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities:
and he called
the name of the place Hormah.
NU-21:4 And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red
sea, to
compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much
discouraged
because of the way.
NU-21:5 And the people spake against God, and against Moses,
Wherefore have
ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for
[there is] no
bread, neither [is there any] water; and our soul loatheth this
light bread.
NU-21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and
they bit the
people; and much people of Israel died.
NU-21:7 Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have
sinned, for we
have spoken against the LORD, and against thee; pray unto the
LORD, that he
take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.
NU-21:8 And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent,
and set it
upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is
bitten, when he
looketh upon it, shall live.
NU-21:9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a
pole, and it
came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he
beheld the serpent
of brass, he lived.
NU-21:10 And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in
Oboth.
NU-21:11 And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at
Ijeabarim, in the
wilderness which [is] before Moab, toward the sunrising.
NU-21:12 From thence they removed, and pitched in the valley of
Zared.
NU-21:13 From thence they removed, and pitched on the other
side of Arnon,
which [is] in the wilderness that cometh out of the coasts of
the Amorites:
for Arnon [is] the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
NU-21:14 Wherefore it is said in the book of the wars of the
LORD, What he
did in the Red sea, and in the brooks of Arnon,
NU-21:15 And at the stream of the brooks that goeth down to the
dwelling of
Ar, and lieth upon the border of Moab.
NU-21:16 And from thence [they went] to Beer: that [is] the
well whereof the
LORD spake unto Moses, Gather the people together, and I will
give them water.
NU-21:17 Then Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing ye
unto it:
NU-21:18 The princes digged the well, the nobles of the people
digged it, by
[the direction of] the lawgiver, with their staves. And from the
wilderness
[they went] to Mattanah:
NU-21:19 And from Mattanah to Nahaliel: and from Nahaliel to
Bamoth:
NU-21:20 And from Bamoth [in] the valley that [is] in the
country of Moab, to
the top of Pisgah, which looketh toward Jeshimon.
NU-21:21 And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the
Amorites, saying,
NU-21:22 Let me pass through thy land: we will not turn into
the fields, or
into the vineyards; we will not drink [of] the waters of the
well: [but] we
will go along by the king's [high] way, until we be past thy
borders.
NU-21:23 And Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his
border: but
Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against
Israel into the
wilderness: and he came to Jahaz, and fought against Israel.
NU-21:24 And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and
possessed his
land from Arnon unto Jabbok, even unto the children of Ammon:
for the border
of the children of Ammon [was] strong.
NU-21:25 And Israel took all these cities: and Israel dwelt in
all the cities
of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the villages thereof.
NU-21:26 For Heshbon [was] the city of Sihon the king of the
Amorites, who
had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his
land out of his
hand, even unto Arnon.
NU-21:27 Wherefore they that speak in proverbs say, Come into
Heshbon, let
the city of Sihon be built and prepared:
NU-21:28 For there is a fire gone out of Heshbon, a flame from
the city of
Sihon: it hath consumed Ar of Moab, [and] the lords of the high
places of
Arnon.
NU-21:29 Woe to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of
Chemosh: he hath
given his sons that escaped, and his daughters, into captivity
unto Sihon king
of the Amorites.
NU-21:30 We have shot at them; Heshbon is perished even unto
Dibon, and we
have laid them waste even unto Nophah, which [reacheth] unto
Medeba.
NU-21:31 Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.
NU-21:32 And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the
villages
thereof, and drove out the Amorites that [were] there.
NU-21:33 And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and
