And when ye came unto this place,.... The borders of Moab, the wilderness before it, to which joined the plains they were now in; see Num 21:13, Sihon king of Heshbon, and Og king of Bashan, came out against us unto battle; not together, but one after the other, and that very quickly; as soon almost as they had fought with the one, and conquered him, the other came out against them: and we smote them; killed them and their armies, and the inhabitants of their countries; the history of which see in Num 21:23.
