Joshua 12

Open Word Bible

These are the kings of the land whom the Israelites defeated and whose land they took possession of across the Jordan, toward the sunrise, from the Arnon Valley to Mount Hermon, with all the Arabah on the east: Sihon king of the Amorites, whose city was Heshbon. His rule reached from Aroer, on the edge of the Arnon Valley, and from the middle of the valley, over half of Gilead as far as the Jabbok River, the border of the Ammonites. He also ruled the Arabah on the east, from the Sea of Chinneroth down to the Sea of the Arabah, the Dead Sea, in the direction of Beth-jeshimoth, and southward below the slopes of Pisgah. They also took the territory of Og king of Bashan, one of the last of the Rephaim, who lived at Ashtaroth and Edrei. He ruled over Mount Hermon, Salecah and all of Bashan, up to the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and over half of Gilead, up to the border of Sihon king of Heshbon. Moses the servant of the LORD and the Israelites defeated them, and Moses the servant of the LORD gave their land as a possession to the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh.

These are the kings of the land whom Joshua and the Israelites defeated across the Jordan on the west side, from Baal-gad in the Lebanon Valley up to Mount Halak, the mountain that rises toward Seir. Joshua gave their land to the tribes of Israel as a possession, portion by portion, in the hill country and the foothills, in the Arabah and on the slopes, in the wilderness and in the Negev, the land of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites.
