8. And when we went on past our brethren the Bnei Esav, who dwell in Seir, through the road of the Aravah from Eilat, and from Etzyon-Gever, we turned and passed by on the road through the midbar of Moav.
9. And Hashem said unto me, Harass not the Moavim, neither provoke them to milchamah for I will not give thee of their land for a yerushah; because I have given Ar unto the Bnei Lot for a yerushah.
10. The Emim dwelt therein in times past, a people great, many, and tall, as the Anakim;
11. Which also were accounted Refa'im, as the Anakim; but the Moavim called them Emim.
12. The Chorim also dwelt in Seir beforetime; but the Bnei Esav succeeded them, when they had destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their place; as Yisroel did unto the eretz of his yerushah Hashem gave unto them.
13. Now rise up, and get you over the Wadi Zered. And we went over the Wadi Zered.
14. And the space in which we came from Kadesh-Barnea, until we were come over the Wadi Zered, was 38 shanim; until all the generation of the anshei hamilchamah had been consumed from the machaneh, as Hashem had sworn unto them.
15. For indeed the yad Hashem was against them, to destroy them from among the machaneh, until they were consumed.
16. So it came to pass, when kol anshei hamilchamah were consumed and dead from among HaAm (the People),
17. That Hashem spoke unto me, saying,
18. Thou art to pass over the border of Moav at Ar today;
19. And when thou comest opposite the Bnei Ammon, distress them not, nor meddle with them; for I will not give thee of the Eretz Bnei Ammon any yerushah; because I have given it unto the Bnei Lot for a yerushah.
20. (That also was accounted a land of Refa'im; Refa'im dwelt therein in old time; and the Ammonim call them Zamzummim;
21. A people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim; but Hashem destroyed them before them; and they [the Ammonim] dispossessed them, and dwelt in their place:
22. As He did to the Bnei Esav, which dwelt in Seir, when He destroyed the Chori from before them; and they succeeded them, dwelling in their place even to this day;
