We will travel along the King’s Highway until we pass through your territory.' 23 But Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his territory.

Begin to take possession of it, that you may inherit his land.' 32 So Sihon came out with all his people to meet us in battle at Jahaz. 33 And the LORD our God delivered him over to us, and we struck him down along with his sons and his whole army. 34 At that time we captured all his cities and completely destroyed every city, including the men, women, and children; we left no survivors. 35 Only the livestock and the plunder from the cities we took as spoil for ourselves. 36 From Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Valley, and from the city in the valley, even to Gilead, not one city was too strong for us. The LORD our God gave them all into our hands.
