And they descended after him, and toke the passages of Iordane toward Moab, and suffered not a man to passe ouer. 29 And they slue of the Moabites the same time vpon a ten thousande men, which were all fatte, & men of warre, and there scaped not a man. 30 So Moab was subdued that day vnder the hande of Israel: And the lande had rest fourescore yeres. 31 After him was Samgar the sonne of Anath, whiche slue of the Philistines sixe hundred men with an oxe goade, and deliuered Israel also.
