Of the Ḥeḇronites, Yeriyah was head of the Ḥeḇronites according to his genealogy of the fathers. In the fortieth year of the reign of Dawiḏ they were sought, and there were found among them able men at Ya‛zĕr of Gil‛aḏ.
“And You gave them reigns and peoples, and apportioned them their lot. So they took possession of the land of Siḥon, and the land of the sovereign of Ḥeshbon, and the land of Oḡ sovereign of Bashan.
And the children of Re’uḇĕn and the children of Gaḏ had much livestock, a large number. And they saw the land of Ya‛zĕr and the land of Gil‛aḏ and saw that the place was a place for livestock.
Arise, set out and pass over the wadi Arnon. See, I have given into your hand Siḥon the Amorite, sovereign of Ḥeshbon, and his land. Begin to possess it, and stir up yourself against him in battle.
