And thus we took the same season, the land
out of the hand of two kings of the Amorites on the other side
Iordan, from the river of Arnon unto mount Hermon (which Hermon
the Sidons call Sirion, but the Amorites call it Senir) all the
cities in the plain and all Gilead and all Basan unto Salcha and
Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Basan. For only Og king of
Basan remained of the remnant of the giants: behold, his iron bed
is yet at Rabath among the children of Ammon nine cubits long and,
four cubits broad, of the cubits of a man. And when we had
conquered this land the same time, I gave from Aroer which is upon
the river of Arnon, and half mount Gilead and the cities thereof
unto the Rubenites, and Gadites. And the rest of Gilead and all
Basan the kingdom of Og, I gave unto the half tribe of Manasse:
all the region of Argob with all Basan was called the land of
giants. Iair the son of Manasse took all the region of Argob unto
the coasts of Gesuri and Maachati, and called the towns of Basan
after his own name: the towns of [Havoth] Iair unto this day. And
I gave half Gilead unto Machir. And unto Ruben and Gad, I gave
from Gilead unto the river of Arnon and half the valley and the
coast, even unto the river Iabock which is the border of the
children of Ammon, and the fields and Iordan with the coast, from
Cenereth even unto the sea in the field which is the salt sea
under the springs of Pisga eastward.
