These forty years the LORD your God has been with you; you have lacked nothing. 8 And when we passed by from our brethren, the children of Esau, who dwelt in Seir, through the way of the plain from Elath and from Ezion-geber, we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab. 9 And the LORD said unto me, Do not distress the Moabites, nor contend with them in battle; for I will not give you any of their land for a possession, because I have given Ar to the children of Lot for a possession. 10 The Emim dwelt there in times past, a people great and many and tall as the Anakim; 11 Who were also regarded as giants, like the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim. 12 The Horites also dwelt in Seir previously; but the children of Esau succeeded them, when they had destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their place, as Israel did to the land of his possession, which the LORD gave to them. 13 Now rise up, said I, and cross over the brook Zered. And we went over the brook Zered. 14 And the time we took to come from Kadesh-barnea until we crossed the brook Zered was thirty-eight years, until all the generation of the men of war perished from the camp, as the LORD swore to them. 15 For indeed the hand of the LORD was against them, to destroy them from the camp, until they were consumed. 16 So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people, 17 that the LORD spoke unto me, saying, 18 You are to pass through Ar, the coast of Moab, this day. 19 And when you come near against the children of Ammon, do not distress them nor meddle with them; for I will not give you any of the land of the children of Ammon as a possession, because I have given it to the children of Lot for a possession. 20 (That also was regarded as a land of giants: giants dwelt there in old time; and the Ammonites call them Zamzummim, 21 a people great and many and tall, as the Anakim; but the LORD destroyed them before them, and they succeeded them and dwelt in their place. 22 As He did to the children of Esau, who dwelt in Seir, when He destroyed the Horites from before them; and they succeeded them and dwelt in their place even unto this day. 23 And the Avvites who dwelt in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorites, who came out of Caphtor, destroyed them and dwelt in their place.) 24 Rise up, take your journey, and cross over the river Arnon; behold, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; begin to possess it and engage him in battle. 25 This day I will begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you upon the nations under the whole heaven, who shall hear the report of you and shall tremble and be in anguish because of you.
