- Numbers 21:23-30 Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his border, but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz. He fought against Israel. Israel struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was fortified. Israel took all these cities. Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its villages. For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even to the Arnon. Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established; for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of the Arnon. Woe to you, Moab! You are undone, people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites. We have shot at them. Heshbon has perished even to Dibon. We have laid waste even to Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba.”
- Judges 11:20-23 But Sihon didn’t trust Israel to pass through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and encamped in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. Yahweh, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they struck them. So Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. They possessed all the border of the Amorites, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and from the wilderness even to the Jordan. So now Yahweh, the God of Israel, has dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and should you possess them?
- Nehemiah 9:22 Moreover you gave them kingdoms and peoples, which you allotted according to their portions. So they possessed the land of Sihon, even the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og king of Bashan.
- Psalms 120:7 I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.
- Psalms 135:11 Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan,
- Psalms 136:19 Sihon king of the Amorites; for his loving kindness endures forever;

Then Sihon came out against us,.... Perceiving they were upon their march towards his land or into it, he gathered all his people and went out of Heshbon their capital city, where he resided:
he and all his people, to fight at Jahaz; a city which he had taken from the king of Moab, and which in later times, after the captivity of the ten tribes, came into their hands again, Isa 15:4; see Gill on Num 21:21.

32. unto battle at Jahaz] E, Num_21:23; went out to meet I. towards the wilderness, came to Yahaṣ and fought Israel. See on Ḳedemoth, Deu_2:26. The Moabite stone (Deu_2:18-21) implies that Yahaṣ was near Dîbôn; Jer_48:21 places it on the Mishôr or Moab plateau (see Deu_3:10); and Isa_15:4 some distance S. of Ḥeshbon. In Eusebius’ day it was pointed out between Madaba1[112] and Dibon (On. Sacr. Ιασσα). Musil (Moab, 107, 122) suggests Umm-el-Walîd, ruins on a strong site S.E. of Mâdabâ on the right bank of the W. el-Heri, undoubtedly a suitable place for Sîḥôn to meet Israel. But there are other ruined sites equally suitable on the probable line of Israel’s march and on the E. of the plateau.
[112] The various forms of this name are:—Heb. Mêdebâ; Moabite Mehçdebâ; Arab. Mâdabâ; Greek Μαἱδαβα, Μεδαβα, Μηδαβα!; Lat. Medaba.
