Deuteronomy 2

¹'And we turn, and journey into the wilderness, the way of the Red Sea, as Jehovah hath spoken unto me, and we go round the mount of Seir many days.

²'And Jehovah speaketh unto me, saying,

³Enough to you — is the going round of this mount; turn for yourselves northward.

⁴'And the people command thou, saying, Ye are passing over into the border of your brethren, sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, and they are afraid of you; and ye have been very watchful,

⁵ye do not strive with them, for I do not give to you of their land even the treading of the sole of a foot; for a possession to Esau I have given mount Seir.

⁶'Food ye buy from them with money, and have eaten; and also water ye buy from them with money, and have drunk,

⁷for Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee in all the work of thy hands; He hath known thy walking in this great wilderness these forty years; Jehovah thy God [is] with thee; thou hast not lacked anything.

⁸'And we pass by from our brethren, sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, by the way of the plain, by Elath, and by Ezion-Gaber; and we turn, and pass over the way of the wilderness of Moab;

⁹and Jehovah saith unto me, Do not distress Moab, nor stir thyself up against them [in] battle, for I do not give to thee of their land [for] a possession; for to the sons of Lot I have given Ar [for] a possession.'

¹⁰'The Emim formerly have dwelt in it, a people great, and numerous, and tall, as the Anakim;

¹¹Rephaim they are reckoned, they also, as the Anakim; and the Moabites call them Emim.
