¹“Then we turned and went up the road to Bashan; and Og king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei. ²And the Lᴏʀᴅ said to me, ‘Do not fear him, for I have delivered him and all his people and his land into your hand; you shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.’ ³So the Lᴏʀᴅ our God also delivered into our hands Og king of Bashan, with all his people, and we attacked him until he had no survivors remaining. ⁴And we took all his cities at that time; there was not a city which we did not take from them: sixty cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan. ⁵All these cities were fortified with high walls, gates, and bars, besides a great many rural towns. ⁶And we utterly destroyed them, as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children of every city. ⁷But all the livestock and the spoil of the cities we took as booty for ourselves. ⁸And at that time we took the land from the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were on this side of the Jordan, from the River Arnon to Mount Hermon ⁹(the Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir), ¹⁰all the cities of the plain, all Gilead, and all Bashan, as far as Salcah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan. ¹¹For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the giants. Indeed his bedstead was an iron bedstead. (Is it not in Rabbah of the people of Ammon?) Nine cubits is its length and four cubits its width, according to the standard cubit. ¹²“And this land, which we possessed at that time, from Aroer, which is by the River Arnon, and half the mountains of Gilead and its cities, I gave to the Reubenites and the Gadites. ¹³The rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to half the tribe of Manasseh. (All the region of Argob, with all Bashan, was called the land of the giants. ¹⁴Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob, as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and called Bashan after his own name, Havoth Jair, to this day.) ¹⁵Also I gave Gilead to Machir. ¹⁶And to the Reubenites and the Gadites I gave from Gilead as far as the River Arnon, the middle of the river as the border, as far as the River Jabbok, the border of the people of Ammon; ¹⁷the plain also, with the Jordan as the border, from Chinnereth as far as the east side of the Sea of the Arabah (the Salt Sea), below the slopes of Pisgah. ¹⁸“Then I commanded you at that time, saying: ‘The Lᴏʀᴅ your God has given you this land to possess. All you men of valor shall cross over armed before your brethren, the children of Israel. ¹⁹But your wives, your little ones, and your livestock (I know that you have much livestock) shall stay in your cities which I have given you, ²⁰until the Lᴏʀᴅ has given rest to your brethren as to you, and they also possess the land which the Lᴏʀᴅ your God is giving them beyond the Jordan. Then each of you may return to his possession which I have given you.’ ²¹And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, ‘Your eyes have seen all that the Lᴏʀᴅ your God has done to these two kings; so will the Lᴏʀᴅ do to all the kingdoms through which you pass. ²²You must not fear them, for the Lᴏʀᴅ your God Himself fights for you.’ ²³“Then I pleaded with the Lᴏʀᴅ at that time, saying: ²⁴‘O Lᴏʀᴅ God, You have begun to show Your servant Your greatness and Your mighty hand, for what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do anything like Your works and Your mighty deeds? ²⁵I pray, let me cross over and see the good land beyond the Jordan, those pleasant mountains, and Lebanon.’ ²⁶But the Lᴏʀᴅ was angry with me on your account, and would not listen to me. So the Lᴏʀᴅ said to me: ‘Enough of that! Speak no more to Me of this matter. ²⁷Go up to the top of Pisgah, and lift your eyes toward the west, the north, the south, and the east; behold it with your eyes, for you shall not cross over this Jordan. ²⁸But command Joshua, and encourage him and strengthen him; for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land which you will see.’ ²⁹So we stayed in the valley opposite Beth Peor.

¹To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Lᴏʀᴅ, You have been favorable to Your land; You have brought back the captivity of Jacob. ²You have forgiven the iniquity of Your people; You have covered all their sin. Selah ³You have taken away all Your wrath; You have turned from the fierceness of Your anger. ⁴Restore us, O God of our salvation, And cause Your anger toward us to cease. ⁵Will You be angry with us forever? Will You prolong Your anger to all generations? ⁶Will You not revive us again, That Your people may rejoice in You? ⁷Show us Your mercy, Lord, And grant us Your salvation. ⁸I will hear what God the Lᴏʀᴅ will speak, For He will speak peace To His people and to His saints; But let them not turn back to folly. ⁹Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, That glory may dwell in our land. ¹⁰Mercy and truth have met together; Righteousness and peace have kissed. ¹¹Truth shall spring out of the earth, And righteousness shall look down from heaven. ¹²Yes, the Lᴏʀᴅ will give what is good; And our land will yield its increase. ¹³Righteousness will go before Him, And shall make His footsteps our pathway.

¹Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, And rely on horses, Who trust in chariots because they are many, And in horsemen because they are very strong, But who do not look to the Holy One of Israel, Nor seek the Lᴏʀᴅ! ²Yet He also is wise and will bring disaster, And will not call back His words, But will arise against the house of evildoers, And against the help of those who work iniquity. ³Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; And their horses are flesh, and not spirit. When the Lᴏʀᴅ stretches out His hand, Both he who helps will fall, And he who is helped will fall down; They all will perish together. ⁴For thus the Lᴏʀᴅ has spoken to me: “As a lion roars, And a young lion over his prey (When a multitude of shepherds is summoned against him, He will not be afraid of their voice Nor be disturbed by their noise), So the Lᴏʀᴅ of hosts will come down To fight for Mount Zion and for its hill. ⁵Like birds flying about, So will the Lᴏʀᴅ of hosts defend Jerusalem. Defending, He will also deliver it; Passing over, He will preserve it.” ⁶Return to Him against whom the children of Israel have deeply revolted. ⁷For in that day every man shall throw away his idols of silver and his idols of gold—sin, which your own hands have made for yourselves. ⁸“Then Assyria shall fall by a sword not of man, And a sword not of mankind shall devour him. But he shall flee from the sword, And his young men shall become forced labor. ⁹He shall cross over to his stronghold for fear, And his princes shall be afraid of the banner,” Says the Lᴏʀᴅ, Whose fire is in Zion And whose furnace is in Jerusalem.

¹The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, ²who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. ³Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near. ⁴John, to the seven churches which are in Asia:Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, ⁵and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, ⁶and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. ⁷Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. ⁸“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” ⁹I, John, both your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was on the island that is called Patmos for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. ¹⁰I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, ¹¹saying, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” and, “What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.” ¹²Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands, ¹³and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band. ¹⁴His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire; ¹⁵His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters; ¹⁶He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength. ¹⁷And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last. ¹⁸I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death. ¹⁹Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this. ²⁰The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven churches.
