I will go always
along by the high way and will neither turn unto the right hand
nor to the left. Sell me meat for money for to eat, and give me
drink for money for to drink: I will go thorow by foot only (as
the children of Esau did unto me which dwell in Seir and the
Moabites which dwell in Ar) until I be come over Iordan, into the
land which the LORD our God giveth us. But Sihon the king of
Hesbon would not let us pass by him, for the LORD thy God had
hardened his spirit and made his heart tough because he would
deliver him into thy hands as it is come to pass this day. And the
LORD said unto me: behold, I have begun to set Sihon and his land
before thee: go to and conquer, that thou mayst possess his land.
Then both Sihon and all his people came out against us unto battle
at Iahab. And the LORD set him before us, and we smote him and his
sons and all his people. And we took all his cities the same
season, and destroyed all the cities with men, women, and children
and let nothing remain, save the cattle only we caught unto our
selves and the spoil of the cities which we took, from Aroer upon
the brink of the river of Arnon, and the city in the river, unto
Gilead: there was not one city too strong for us.
