- Joshua Chapter 12
12 The Israelites killed these kings who ruled on the east side of the Jordan River. They destroyed them and they took their land. Their land went from the Arnon valley to Hermon mountain. It included all the land on the east side of the Jordan Valley.
2 They killed Sihon, king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon. He ruled half of the Gilead region. That is from Aroer that was on the edge of the Arnon valley, as far as the Jabbok river. The Ammonites had the land on the other side of the river. 3 King Sihon's land also went along the east side of the Jordan Valley from the sea of Galilee to the Salt Sea. His land went south to Beth Jeshimoth and as far as Pisgah mountain.
4 They killed Og, king of Bashan. He was one of the last Rephaites. He lived in Ashtaroth and in Edrei. 5 He ruled the land from Hermon mountain and Salecah in the north, and all of the Bashan region in the east. His land went as far as the borders of the kingdoms of Geshur and Maakah. He ruled half of the Gilead region, as far as the border of King Sihon of Heshbon.
6 The Lord 's servant, Moses, and the Israelites won against these kings. Moses gave their land to the tribes of Reuben, Gad and half the tribe of Manasseh to live in. [ a ]
7 Joshua and the Israelites killed these kings who ruled on the west side of the Jordan River. Joshua gave these kings' land to the Israelite tribes for them to live in. He gave a different piece of land to each tribe. Their land went from Baal Gad in the Lebanon valley to Halak mountain, which is near Seir. 8 This included the hill country, the low hills in the west, the Jordan Valley, the mountains, the wilderness and the Negev. That was the land that belonged to the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. 9 Joshua took the land of these kings:
king of Jericho,
king of Ai (near Bethel),
10 king of Jerusalem,
king of Hebron,
11 king of Jarmuth,
king of Lachish,
12 king of Eglon,

Joshua and the Israelites took the land of these 31 kings. [ b ]
12 The Israelites had taken control of the land east of the Jordan River. They had all the land from Arnon Ravine to Mount Hermon and all the land along the eastern side of the Jordan Valley. These are all the kings the Israelites defeated to take this land:
2 They defeated King Sihon of the Amorites living in the city of Heshbon. He ruled the land from Aroer at the Arnon Ravine to the Jabbok River. His land started in the center of that ravine. This was their border with the Ammonites. Sihon ruled over half of the land of Gilead. 3 He also ruled over the eastern side of the Jordan Valley from Lake Galilee to the Dead Sea (Salt Sea). And he ruled from Beth Jeshimoth to the south to the hills of Pisgah.
4 They also defeated King Og of Bashan. Og was from the Rephaites. He ruled the land in Ashtaroth and Edrei. 5 Og ruled over Mount Hermon, Salecah, and all the area of Bashan. His land ended where the people of Geshur and Maacah lived. Og also ruled half of the land of Gilead. This land ended at the land of King Sihon of Heshbon.
6 The Lord ’s servant Moses and the Israelites defeated all these kings. And Moses gave that land to the tribe of Reuben, the tribe of Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh. Moses gave them this land to be their own.
7 Joshua and the Israelites defeated the kings of the land west of the Jordan River. This land was in the area west of Baal Gad in the Lebanon Valley as far as Mount Halak that rises toward Seir. Joshua divided it among the tribes. 8 This included the hill country, the western foothills, the Jordan Valley, the eastern mountains, the desert, and the Negev. This was where the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites had lived. These are the kings the Israelites defeated:
9 the king of Jericho,
the king of Ai near Bethel,
10 the king of Jerusalem,
the king of Hebron,
11 the king of Jarmuth,
the king of Lachish,
12 the king of Eglon,

The total number of kings was 31.
12 Now these are the kings of the land, which the children of Israel smote, and possessed their land on the other side Jordan toward the rising of the sun, from the river Arnon unto mount Hermon, and all the plain on the east:
2 Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and ruled from Aroer, which is upon the bank of the river Arnon, and from the middle of the river, and from half Gilead, even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon;
3 And from the plain to the sea of Chinneroth on the east, and unto the sea of the plain, even the salt sea on the east, the way to Bethjeshimoth; and from the south, under Ashdothpisgah:
4 And the coast of Og king of Bashan, which was of the remnant of the giants, that dwelt at Ashtaroth and at Edrei,
5 And reigned in mount Hermon, and in Salcah, and in all Bashan, unto the border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and half Gilead, the border of Sihon king of Heshbon.
6 Them did Moses the servant of the Lord and the children of Israel smite: and Moses the servant of the Lord gave it for a possession unto the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh.
7 And these are the kings of the country which Joshua and the children of Israel smote on this side Jordan on the west, from Baalgad in the valley of Lebanon even unto the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir; which Joshua gave unto the tribes of Israel for a possession according to their divisions;
8 In the mountains, and in the valleys, and in the plains, and in the springs, and in the wilderness, and in the south country; the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites:

12 Now these are the ( A ) kings of the land whom the sons of Israel [ a ] defeated, and they took possession of their land beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise, from the Valley of the Arnon as far as Mount Hermon, and all the Arabah to the east: 2 Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon and ruled ( B ) from Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, both the middle of the valley and half of Gilead, even as far as the brook Jabbok, the border of the sons of Ammon; 3 and the ( C ) Arabah as far as the Sea of [ b ] Chinneroth toward the east, and as far as the Sea of the Arabah, that is , the Salt Sea, eastward [ c ] toward ( D ) Beth-jeshimoth, and on the south, [ d ] at the foot of the slopes of Pisgah; 4 and the territory of Og king of Bashan, one of ( E ) the remnant of Rephaim, who lived at ( F ) Ashtaroth and at Edrei, 5 and ruled over Mount Hermon, ( G ) Salecah, and all Bashan, as far as ( H ) the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and half of Gilead, as far as the border of Sihon king of Heshbon. 6 Moses the servant of the Lord and the sons of Israel [ e ] defeated them; and ( I ) Moses the servant of the Lord gave it to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh as a possession.
7 Now these are the kings of the land whom Joshua and the sons of Israel [ f ] defeated beyond the Jordan toward the west, from Baal-gad in the Valley of Lebanon even as far as ( J ) Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir; and Joshua gave it to the tribes of Israel as a possession according to their divisions, 8 in ( K ) the hill country, in the lowland, in the Arabah, on the slopes, in the wilderness, and in the [ g ] Negev; the Hittite, the Amorite and the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite: 9 the ( L ) king of Jericho, one; the ( M ) king of Ai, which is beside Bethel, one; 10 the ( N ) king of Jerusalem, one; the king of Hebron, one; 11 the king of Jarmuth, one; the king of Lachish, one; 12 the king of Eglon, one; the king of Gezer, one; 13 the king of Debir, one; the king of Geder, one; 14 the king of Hormah, one; the king of ( O ) Arad, one; 15 the king of Libnah, one; the king of Adullam, one; 16 the king of Makkedah, one; the king of Bethel, one; 17 the king of Tappuah, one; the ( P ) king of Hepher, one; 18 the king of ( Q ) Aphek, one; the king of Lasharon, one; 19 the king of Madon, one; the king of Hazor, one; 20 the king of Shimron-meron, one; the king of Achshaph, one; 21 the king of Taanach, one; the king of Megiddo, one; 22 the king of ( R ) Kedesh, one; the king of Jokneam in Carmel, one; 23 the king of Dor in the [ h ] heights of Dor, one; the king of ( S ) Goiim in Gilgal, one; 24 the king of Tirzah, one: ( T ) in all, thirty-one kings.
12 These are the kings of the land whom the Israelites had defeated and whose territory they took ( A ) over east of the Jordan, ( B ) from the Arnon ( C ) Gorge to Mount Hermon, ( D ) including all the eastern side of the Arabah: ( E )
2 Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon. ( F )
He ruled from Aroer ( G ) on the rim of the Arnon Gorge—from the middle of the gorge—to the Jabbok River, ( H ) which is the border of the Ammonites. ( I ) This included half of Gilead. ( J ) 3 He also ruled over the eastern Arabah from the Sea of Galilee [ a ] ( K ) to the Sea of the Arabah (that is, the Dead Sea ( L ) ), to Beth Jeshimoth, ( M ) and then southward below the slopes of Pisgah. ( N )
4 And the territory of Og king of Bashan, ( O ) one of the last of the Rephaites, ( P ) who reigned in Ashtaroth ( Q ) and Edrei.
5 He ruled over Mount Hermon, Salekah, ( R ) all of Bashan ( S ) to the border of the people of Geshur ( T ) and Maakah, ( U ) and half of Gilead ( V ) to the border of Sihon king of Heshbon.
6 Moses, the servant of the Lord , and the Israelites conquered them. ( W ) And Moses the servant of the Lord gave their land to the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh to be their possession. ( X )
