1. "And setting out from there, we arrived at the wilderness which leads to the Red Sea, just as the Lord had spoken to me. And we encompassed Mount Seir for a long time.
2. And the Lord said to me:
3. 'You have encompassed this mountain for long enough. Go forth, toward the north.
4. And instruct the people, saying: You shall cross through the borders of your brothers, the sons of Esau, who live at Seir, and they will fear you.
5. Therefore, take care diligently, lest you be moved against them. For I will not give to you from their land even as much as the step that one foot can tread upon, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau as a possession.
6. You shall buy food from them for money, and you shall eat. You shall draw water for money, and you shall drink.
