Numbers 21:21: 
And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,

Numbers 21:22: 
Let me pass through thy land: we will not turn aside into field, or into vineyard; we will not drink of the water of the wells: we will go by the king's highway, until we have passed thy border.

Numbers 21:27: 
Wherefore they that speak in proverbs say, Come ye to Heshbon; Let the city of Sihon be built and established:

Numbers 21:28: 
For a fire is gone out of Heshbon, A flame from the city of Sihon: It hath devoured Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of the Arnon.

So they smote him, and his sons and all his people, until there was none left him remaining: and they possessed his land.
