DE-2:1 Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness
by the way of
the Red sea, as the LORD spake unto me: and we compassed mount
Seir many days.
DE-2:2 And the LORD spake unto me, saying,
DE-2:3 Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you
northward.
DE-2:4 And command thou the people, saying, Ye [are] to pass
through the
coast of your brethren the children of Esau, which dwell in Seir;
and they
shall be afraid of you: take ye good heed unto yourselves
therefore:
DE-2:5 Meddle not with them; for I will not give you of their
land, no, not
so much as a foot breadth; because I have given mount Seir unto
Esau [for] a
possession.
DE-2:6 Ye shall buy meat of them for money, that ye may eat;
and ye shall
also buy water of them for money, that ye may drink.
DE-2:7 For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the works
of thy hand:
he knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness: these
forty years the
LORD thy God [hath been] with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.
DE-2:8 And when we passed by from our brethren the children of
Esau, which
dwelt in Seir, through the way of the plain from Elath, and from
Eziongaber,
we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
DE-2:9 And the LORD said unto me, Distress not the Moabites,
neither contend
with them in battle: for I will not give thee of their land
[for] a
possession; because I have given Ar unto the children of Lot
[for] a
possession.
DE-2:10 The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great,
and many, and
tall, as the Anakims;
DE-2:11 Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims; but
the Moabites
call them Emims.
DE-2:12 The Horims also dwelt in Seir beforetime; but the
children of Esau
succeeded them, when they had destroyed them from before them,
and dwelt in
their stead; as Israel did unto the land of his possession,
which the LORD
gave unto them.
DE-2:13 Now rise up, [said I], and get you over the brook Zered.
And we went
over the brook Zered.
DE-2:14 And the space in which we came from Kadeshbarnea, until
we were come
over the brook Zered, [was] thirty and eight years; until all
the generation
of the men of war were wasted out from among the host, as the
LORD sware unto
them.
DE-2:15 For indeed the hand of the LORD was against them, to
destroy them
from among the host, until they were consumed.
DE-2:16 So it came to pass, when all the men of war were
consumed and dead
from among the people,
DE-2:17 That the LORD spake unto me, saying,
DE-2:18 Thou art to pass over through Ar, the coast of Moab,
this day:
DE-2:19 And [when] thou comest nigh over against the children
of Ammon,
distress them not, nor meddle with them: for I will not give
thee of the land
of the children of Ammon [any] possession; because I have given
it unto the
children of Lot [for] a possession.
DE-2:20 (That also was accounted a land of giants: giants dwelt
therein in
old time; and the Ammonites call them Zamzummims;
DE-2:21 A people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; but
the LORD
destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt
in their stead:
DE-2:22 As he did to the children of Esau, which dwelt in Seir,
when he
destroyed the Horims from before them; and they succeeded them,
and dwelt in
their stead even unto this day:
DE-2:23 And the Avims which dwelt in Hazerim, [even] unto Azzah,
the
Caphtorims, which came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and
dwelt in
their stead.)
DE-2:24 Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the river
Arnon: behold,
I have given into thine hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon,
and his land:
begin to possess [it], and contend with him in battle.
DE-2:25 This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the
fear of thee
upon the nations [that are] under the whole heaven, who shall
hear report of
thee, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of thee.
DE-2:26 And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth
unto Sihon
king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,
DE-2:27 Let me pass through thy land: I will go along by the
high way, I will
neither turn unto the right hand nor to the left.
DE-2:28 Thou shalt sell me meat for money, that I may eat; and
give me water
for money, that I may drink: only I will pass through on my feet;
DE-2:29 (As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and the
Moabites which
dwell in Ar, did unto me;) until I shall pass over Jordan into
the land which
the LORD our God giveth us.
DE-2:30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him:
for the LORD
thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that
he might
deliver him into thy hand, as [appeareth] this day.
DE-2:31 And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give
Sihon and his
