Verse 34 is found in chapter 2 of Deuteronomy. Moses recalls how Israel peacefully requested passage from Sihon, but the king chose to confront them. Sihon’s defeat and the occupation of his territory are presented as the result of the king’s opposition to Israel’s advance. The episode also carefully defines the territories Israel was to respect, reaffirming that victories granted by God did not eliminate the boundaries established by him.

Da gewannen wir zu der Zeit alle seine Städte und verbannten alle Städte, Männer, Weiber und Kinder und ließen niemand übrigbleiben.
Y tomamos entonces todas sus ciudades, y destruimos todas las ciudades, hombres, y mujeres, y niños; no dejamos ninguno:
Nous prîmes alors toutes ses villes, et nous les dévouâmes par interdit, hommes, femmes et petits enfants, sans en laisser échapper un seul.
E in quel tempo noi prendemmo tutte le sue città, e distruggemmo alla maniera dell’interdetto, in tutte le città, gli uomini, le donne, e i piccoli fanciulli; noi non vi lasciammo alcuno in vita.
E naquele tempo tomamos todas as suas cidades, e cada uma destruímos com os seus homens, mulheres e crianças; não deixamos a ninguém.
那時,我們奪了他一切的城鎮,毀滅各城的男人、女人、孩子,沒有留下一個倖存者。
