Numbers 21:23 in Context — Numbers 21

21 E enviou Israel embaixadores a Seom, rei dos amorreus, dizendo:

22 Deixa-me passar por tua terra: não nos desviaremos pelos campos, nem pelas vinhas; não beberemos as águas dos poços; pelo caminho real iremos, até que passemos os teus termos.

23 Mas Seom não deixou passar a Israel por seus termos: antes juntou Seom todo seu povo, e saiu contra Israel no deserto: e veio a Jaza, e lutou contra Israel.

24 Mas Israel o feriu a fio de espada, e tomou sua terra desde Arnom até Jaboque, até os filhos de Amom: porque o termo dos filhos de Amom era forte.

25 E tomou Israel todas estas cidades: e habitou Israel em todas as cidades dos amorreus, em Hesbom e em todas suas aldeias.
