 The fifth reading (, "aliyah") ends here, with the end of the fourth closed portion (, "setumah").In the sixth reading (, "aliyah"), Sihon and his men took the field against the Israelites at Jahaz, but God delivered him to the Israelites, and the Israelites defeated him, captured and doomed all his towns, leaving no survivor, retaining as booty only the cattle and the spoil.From Aroer on the edge of the Arnon valley to Gilead, not a town was too mighty for the Israelites; God delivered everything to them.
