<< Deuteronomy 1 | Deuteronomy 3 >>
1 Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea, as YHWH spoke to me; and we encircled Mount Seir many days. Deuteronomy 2:1WEB
2 YHWH spoke to me, saying, Deuteronomy 2:2WEB
3 “You have encircled this mountain long enough. Turn northward. Deuteronomy 2:3WEB
4 Command the people, saying, ‘You are to pass through the border of your brothers, the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you. Therefore be careful. Deuteronomy 2:4WEB
5 Don’t contend with them; for I will not give you any of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau for a possession. Deuteronomy 2:5WEB
6 You shall purchase food from them for money, that you may eat. You shall also buy water from them for money, that you may drink.’” Deuteronomy 2:6WEB
7 For YHWH your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands. He has known your walking through this great wilderness. These forty years, YHWH your God has been with you. You have lacked nothing. Deuteronomy 2:7WEB
8 So we passed by from our brothers, the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah from Elath and from Ezion Geber. We turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab. Deuteronomy 2:8WEB
9 YHWH said to me, “Don’t bother Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give you any of his land for a possession, because I have given Ar to the children of Lot for a possession.” Deuteronomy 2:9WEB
10 (The Emim lived there before, a great and numerous people, and tall as the Anakim. Deuteronomy 2:10WEB
11 These also are considered to be Rephaim, as the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim. Deuteronomy 2:11WEB
12 The Horites also lived in Seir in the past, but the children of Esau succeeded them. They destroyed them from before them, and lived in their place, as Israel did to the land of his possession, which YHWH gave to them.) Deuteronomy 2:12WEB
13 “Now rise up and cross over the brook Zered.” We went over the brook Zered. Deuteronomy 2:13WEB
14 The days in which we came from Kadesh Barnea until we had come over the brook Zered were thirty-eight years, until all the generation of the men of war were consumed from the middle of the camp, as YHWH swore to them. Deuteronomy 2:14WEB
15 Moreover YHWH’s hand was against them, to destroy them from the middle of the camp, until they were consumed. Deuteronomy 2:15WEB
16 So, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people, Deuteronomy 2:16WEB
17 YHWH spoke to me, saying, Deuteronomy 2:17WEB
18 “You are to pass over Ar, the border of Moab, today. Deuteronomy 2:18WEB
19 When you come near the border of the children of Ammon, don’t bother them, nor contend with them; for I will not give you any of the land of the children of Ammon for a possession, because I have given it to the children of Lot for a possession.” Deuteronomy 2:19WEB
20 (That also is considered a land of Rephaim. Rephaim lived there in the past, but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim, Deuteronomy 2:20WEB
21 a great people, many, and tall, as the Anakim; but YHWH destroyed them from before Israel, and they succeeded them, and lived in their place, Deuteronomy 2:21WEB
22 as he did for the children of Esau who dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them; and they succeeded them, and lived in their place even to this day. Deuteronomy 2:22WEB
23 Then the Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza: the Caphtorim, who came out of Caphtor, destroyed them and lived in their place.) Deuteronomy 2:23WEB
24 “Rise up, take your journey, and pass over the valley of the Arnon. Behold, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle. Deuteronomy 2:24WEB
25 Today I will begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you on the peoples who are under the whole sky, who shall hear the report of you, and shall tremble and be in anguish because of you.” Deuteronomy 2:25WEB
26 I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying, Deuteronomy 2:26WEB
27 “Let me pass through your land. I will go along by the highway. I will turn neither to the right hand nor to the left. Deuteronomy 2:27WEB
28 You shall sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink. Just let me pass through on my feet, Deuteronomy 2:28WEB
29 as the children of Esau who dwell in Seir, and the Moabites who dwell in Ar, did to me, until I pass over the Jordan into the land which YHWH our God gives us.” Deuteronomy 2:29WEB
30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him, for YHWH your God hardened his spirit and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into your hand, as it is today. Deuteronomy 2:30WEB
31 YHWH said to me, “Behold, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before you. Begin to possess, that you may inherit his land.” Deuteronomy 2:31WEB
32 Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Jahaz. Deuteronomy 2:32WEB
33 YHWH our God delivered him up before us; and we struck him, his sons, and all his people. Deuteronomy 2:33WEB
34 We took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones. We left no one remaining. Deuteronomy 2:34WEB
35 Only the livestock we took for plunder for ourselves, with the plunder of the cities which we had taken. Deuteronomy 2:35WEB
36 From Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the valley, even to Gilead, there was not a city too high for us. YHWH our God delivered up all before us. Deuteronomy 2:36WEB
37 Only to the land of the children of Ammon you didn’t come near: all the banks of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the hill country, and wherever YHWH our God forbade us. Deuteronomy 2:37WEB
