Exegesis
The prepositional chain ʿad-dî-bōn {עַד־דִּיב֑וֹן | ʿad-dî-bōn}, vanāšîm {וַנַּשִּׁ֣ים | va-nā-šîm} ‘and we laid waste’, and ʿad-nô-pach {עַד־נֹ֔פַח | ʿad-nô-pach} mark progressive territorial reach, while the relative ’ăšer {אֲשֶׁר | ’ă-šer} links to the final extent ʿad-mê-ḏe-bā {עַד־מֵֽידְבָֽא | ʿad-mê-ḏe-bā}. The repeated ʿad-phrases create an accumulative list emphasizing conquest, and the shift from imperfect to perfect highlights outcome before continuing the campaign.
In context — Numbers 21:30
And we overthrew them; Heshbon has perished as far as Dibon, and we laid waste as far as Nophah; and fire spread as far as Medeba.
