Deuteronomy 2 — Context

just as the descendants of Esau who live at Seir and the Moabites who live in Ar did for me, until I cross the Jordan to the land the LORD our God is giving us.”

But King Sihon of Heshbon was unwilling to allow us to pass near him because the LORD our God had made him obstinate and stubborn so that he might deliver him over to you this very day.

The LORD said to me,“Look! I have already begun to give over Sihon and his land to you. Start right now to take his land as your possession.”

When Sihon and all his troops emerged to encounter us in battle at Jahaz,

the LORD our God delivered him over to us and we struck him down, along with his sons and everyone else.

At that time we seized all his cities and put every one of them under divine judgment, including even the women and children; we left no survivors.

We kept only the livestock and plunder from the cities for ourselves.
