Números 21:30-35

30 Mas devastamos el reino de ellos; pereció Hesbón hasta Dibón, Y destruimos hasta Nopha y Medeba.

31 Así habitó Israel en la tierra del Amorrheo.

32 Y envió Moisés á reconocer á Jazer; y tomaron sus aldeas, y echaron al Amorrheo que estaba allí.

33 Y volvieron, y subieron camino de Basán, y salió contra ellos Og rey de Basán, él y todo su pueblo, para pelear en Edrei.

34 Entonces Jehová dijo á Moisés: No le tengas miedo, que en tu mano lo he dado, á el y á todo su pueblo, y á su tierra; y harás de él como hiciste de Sehón, rey de los Amorrheos, que habitaba en Hesbón.

35 E hirieron á él, y á sus hijos, y á toda su gente, sin que le quedara uno, y poseyeron su tierra.
