Sihon king of the Amorites defeated, and his land taken

아모리 왕 시혼을 쳐서 그 땅을 점령함

Numbers 21:21–25: Israel sends messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, asking to pass through his land by the king’s highway without turning into field or vineyard or drinking from the wells. Sihon will not let Israel pass through his border; he gathers all his people, goes out against Israel into the wilderness, comes to Jahaz and fights against Israel. Israel strikes him with the edge of the sword and possesses his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, as far as the children of Ammon, whose border was fortified; Israel takes all these cities and lives in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon and all its villages.
