Chapter 12Land that Moses took on the east side of the Jordan River

1The Israelites killed these kings who ruled on the east side of the Jordan River. They destroyed them and they took their land. Their land went from the Arnon Valley to Mount Hermon. It included all the land on the east side of the Jordan Valley.

2They killed Sihon, king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon. He ruled half of the Gilead region. That is from Aroer that was on the edge of the Arnon Valley, as far as the Jabbok River. The Ammonites had the land on the other side of the river.

3King Sihon's land also went along the east side of the Jordan Valley from the sea of Galilee to the Salt Sea. His land went south to Beth Jeshimoth and as far as Mount Pisgah.

4They killed Og, king of Bashan. He was one of the last Rephaites. He lived in Ashtaroth and in Edrei.

5He ruled the land from Mount Hermon and Salecah in the north, and all of the Bashan region in the east. His land went as far as the borders of the kingdoms of Geshur and Maakah. He ruled half of the Gilead region, as far as the border of King Sihon of Heshbon.

6The Lord's servant, Moses, and the Israelites won against these kings. Moses gave their land to the tribes of Reuben, Gad and half the tribe of Manasseh to live in. Land that Joshua took on the west side of the Jordan River
