2:26 Then I sent messengers from the Kedemoth 3 Desert to King Sihon of Heshbon with an offer of peace:
1 tn Heb “the thing was good in my eyes.”
2 tn Or “selected” (so NIV, NRSV, TEV); Heb “took.”
3 sn Kedemoth. This is probably Aleiyan, about 8 mi (13 km) north of the Arnon and between Dibon and Mattanah.
