          DASV: Deuteronomy 3    

1 When we turned and went up the road to Bashan, Og the king
of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, for
battle at Edrei.
2 But the LORD said to me, 'Do not fear him; for I have given him,
all his people and his land, into your hand. You will do to
him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.'
3 So the LORD our God also delivered into our hand Og,
the king of Bashan, and all his people. We struck him down
leaving no survivors.
4 At that time we captured all his towns; there was not a town
that we did not take from them--sixty towns, the whole region
of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
5 All these towns were fortified with high walls, gates and bars;
besides a great many unwalled villages.
6 We totally destroyed them, as we had done to Sihon king of Heshbon,
absolutely destroying every inhabited town, including the women
and children.
7 We kept all the livestock and plunder from the towns as spoil
for ourselves.

8 So at that time we took the land out of the hand of the two
kings of the Amorites that were east of the Jordan River,
from the Arnon gorge to Mount Hermon
9 (Hermon is called Sirion by the Sidonians, while the Amorites
call it Senir),
10 all the towns of the plain, all Gilead and all Bashan,
to Salecah and Edrei, towns of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
11 (Og king of Bashan was the only one left of the Rephaites.
His bed was made of iron. Can it not still be found in Rabbah
of the Ammonites? It was thirteen feet long and six feet wide,
according to standard measurements.)

12 When we took possession of this land at that time, I gave to
the Reubenites and Gadites the territory north of Aroer by the
Arnon gorge and half the hill-country of Gilead, with its towns.
13 The rest of Gilead and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og,
I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh. (The entire region
of Argob, all Bashan which used to be called the land of Rephaites.
14 Jair, a descendant of Manasseh took the whole the region
of Argob, to the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites.
He renamed Bashan after himself, Havvoth-jair [Towns of Jair],
as it is called to this day.)
15 And I gave Gilead to Machir.
16 To the Reubenites and Gadites I gave from Gilead to the
middle of the Arnon gorge, as its border, even to the
Jabbok River, which is the boundary of the Ammonites.
17 The Arabah and the Jordan River were also its border,
from sea of Chinnereth [Galilee] even to the sea of the Arabah,
the Salt [Dead] Sea, with the slopes of Pisgah to the east.
18 I commanded you at that time: 'The LORD your God has given
you this land to possess. All your warriors must cross
over armed ahead of your brothers, the Israelites.
19 But your wives, children and livestock (I realize that you
have much livestock) may stay in your towns I have given you.
20 When the LORD gives rest to your brothers, as to you,
and they too possess the land that the LORD your God gives
them on the other side of Jordan, then each of you may return
to his possession I have given you.'

21 At that time I commanded Joshua, saying, 'Your eyes have
seen all that the LORD your God has done to these two kings.
The LORD will do the same to all the kingdoms where you are
headed.
22 Do not fear them, for the LORD your God will fight for you.'

23 At that time I pleaded with the LORD, saying,
24 'O sovereign LORD, you have begun to show your servant your
greatness and your mighty hand. For what god is there in
heaven or earth that can match your deeds and your mighty acts?
25 Please let me go over and see the good land that is beyond
the Jordan, the beautiful hill country and Lebanon.'
26 But the LORD was angry with me because of you, and would
not listen to me. 'That's enough,' the LORD said to me,
'Never speak to me about this again.
27 Get up to the top of Pisgah and lift up your eyes to
the west, north, south and east, and take it in with your eyes,
for you may not cross the Jordan River.
28 But commission Joshua, and encourage and strengthen him,
for he will cross over before this people, and he will
enable them to inherit the land that you will see.'
29 So we stayed in the valley near Beth-peor.
