Deuteronomy 2:26–30 · Berean Standard Bible

26 So from the Wilderness of Kedemoth I sent messengers with an offer of peace to Sihon king of Heshbon, saying,

27 “Let us pass through your land; we will stay on the main road. We will not turn to the right or to the left.

28 You can sell us food to eat and water to drink in exchange for silver. Only let us pass through on foot,

29 just as the descendants of Esau who live in Seir and the Moabites who live in Ar did for us, until we cross the Jordan into the land that the LORD our God is giving us.”

30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass through, for the LORD your God had made his spirit stubborn and his heart obstinate, that He might deliver him into your hand, as is the case this day.
