Deuteronomy 2:32

Read in context

Deuteronomy 2:30–34 · Berean Standard Bible

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.

31 Then the LORD said to me, “See, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his land over to you. Now begin to conquer and possess his land.”

32 So Sihon and his whole army came out for battle against us at Jahaz.

33 And the LORD our God delivered him over to us, and we defeated him and his sons and his whole army.

34 At that time we captured all his cities and devoted to destruction the people of every city, including women and children. We left no survivors.
