41 Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward the sunrising; |
42 That the slayer might flee thither, which should kill his neighbour unawares, and hated him not in times past; and that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live: |
43 Namely, Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, of the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, of the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, of the Manassites. |
44 And this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel: |
45 These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Moses spake unto the children of Israel, after they came forth out of Egypt, |
46 On this side Jordan, in the valley over against Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they were come forth out of Egypt: |
47 And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which were on this side Jordan toward the sunrising; |
48 From Aroer, which is by the bank of the river Arnon, even unto mount Sion, which is Hermon, |
49 And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, even unto the sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah. |
