Numbers 21:29

²⁷ That is why the poets say: “Come to Heshbon, let it be rebuilt; let the city of Sihon be restored.

²⁸ For a fire went out from Heshbon, a blaze from the city of Sihon. It consumed Ar of Moab, the rulers of Arnon’s heights.

Woe to you, O Moab! You are destroyed, O people of Chemosh! He gave up his sons as refugees, and his daughters into captivity to Sihon king of the Amorites.

³⁰ But we have overthrown them; Heshbon is destroyed as far as Dibon. We demolished them as far as Nophah, which reaches to Medeba.”

³¹ So Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.
