KJV_Strong : Deuteronomy 2
1. Then we turned,[H6437] and took our journey[H5265] into the wilderness[H4057] by the way[H1870] of the Red[H5488] sea,[H3220] as[H834] the LORD[H3068] spoke[H1696] unto[H413] me: and we compassed[H5437] [H853] mount[H2022] Seir[H8165] many[H7227] days.[H3117]
2. And the LORD[H3068] spoke[H559] unto[H413] me, saying,[H559]
3. Ye have compassed[H5437] [H853] this[H2088] mountain[H2022] long enough:[H7227] turn[H6437] you northward.[H6828]
4. And command[H6680] thou the people,[H5971] saying,[H559] Ye[H859] are to pass through[H5674] the coast[H1366] of your brethren[H251] the children[H1121] of Esau,[H6215] which dwell[H3427] in Seir;[H8165] and they shall be afraid[H3372] of[H4480] you: take ye good heed unto yourselves therefore:[H8104] [H3966]
5. Meddle[H1624] not[H408] with them; for[H3588] I will not[H3808] give[H5414] you of their land,[H4480] [H776] no, not so much[H5704] as a foot breadth;[H4096] [H3709] [H7272] because[H3588] I have given[H5414] [H853] mount[H2022] Seir[H8165] unto Esau[H6215] for a possession.[H3425]
6. Ye shall buy[H7666] meat[H400] of[H4480] [H854] them for money,[H3701] that ye may eat;[H398] and ye shall also[H1571] buy[H3739] water[H4325] of[H4480] [H854] them for money,[H3701] that ye may drink.[H8354]
7. For[H3588] the LORD[H3068] thy God[H430] hath blessed[H1288] thee in all[H3605] the works[H4639] of thy hand:[H3027] he knoweth[H3045] thy walking through[H1980] [H853] this[H2088] great[H1419] wilderness:[H4057] these[H2088] forty[H705] years[H8141] the LORD[H3068] thy God[H430] hath been with[H5973] thee; thou hast lacked[H2637] nothing.[H3808] [H1697]
8. And when we passed by[H5674] from[H4480] [H854] our brethren[H251] the children[H1121] of Esau,[H6215] which dwelt[H3427] in Seir,[H8165] through the way[H4480] [H1870] of the plain[H6160] from Elath,[H4480] [H359] and from Ezion-gaber,[H4480] [H6100] we turned[H6437] and passed[H5674] by the way[H1870] of the wilderness[H4057] of Moab.[H4124]
9. And the LORD[H3068] said[H559] unto[H413] me, Distress[H6696] not[H408] [H853] the Moabites,[H4124] neither[H408] contend[H1624] with them in battle:[H4421] for[H3588] I will not[H3808] give[H5414] thee of their land[H4480] [H776] for a possession;[H3425] because[H3588] I have given[H5414] [H853] Ar[H6144] unto the children[H1121] of Lot[H3876] for a possession.[H3425]
10. The Emims[H368] dwelt[H3427] therein in times past,[H6440] a people[H5971] great,[H1419] and many,[H7227] and tall,[H7311] as the Anakims;[H6062]
11. Which[H1992] also[H637] were accounted[H2803] giants,[H7497] as the Anakims;[H6062] but the Moabites[H4125] call[H7121] them Emims.[H368]
12. The Horims[H2752] also dwelt[H3427] in Seir[H8165] formerly;[H6440] but the children[H1121] of Esau[H6215] succeeded[H3423] them, when they had destroyed[H8045] them from before[H4480] [H6440] them, and dwelt[H3427] in their stead;[H8478] as[H834] Israel[H3478] did[H6213] unto the land[H776] of his possession,[H3425] which[H834] the LORD[H3068] gave[H5414] unto them.
13. Now[H6258] rise up,[H6965] said I, and get you over[H5674] [H853] the brook[H5158] Zered.[H2218] And we went over[H5674] [H853] the brook[H5158] Zered.[H2218]
14. And the space[H3117] in which[H834] we came[H1980] from Kadesh-barnea,[H4480] [H6947] until[H5704] [H834] we were come over[H5674] [H853] the brook[H5158] Zered,[H2218] was thirty[H7970] and eight[H8083] years;[H8141] until[H5704] all[H3605] the generation[H1755] of the men[H376] of war[H4421] were wasted[H8552] out from among[H4480] [H7130] the host,[H4264] as[H834] the LORD[H3068] swore[H7650] unto them.
15. For indeed[H1571] the hand[H3027] of the LORD[H3068] was[H1961] against them, to destroy[H2000] them from among[H4480] [H7130] the host,[H4264] until[H5704] they were consumed.[H8552]
16. So it came to pass,[H1961] when[H834] all[H3605] the men[H376] of war[H4421] were consumed[H8552] and dead[H4191] from among[H4480] [H7130] the people,[H5971]
17. That the LORD[H3068] spoke[H1696] unto[H413] me, saying,[H559]
18. Thou[H859] art to pass over[H5674] through[H853] Ar[H6144] [H853] the coast[H1366] of Moab,[H4124] this day: [H3117]
19. And when thou comest nigh[H7126] over against[H4136] the children[H1121] of Ammon,[H5983] distress[H6696] them not,[H408] nor[H408] meddle[H1624] with them: for[H3588] I will not[H3808] give[H5414] thee of the land[H4480] [H776] of the children[H1121] of Ammon[H5983] any possession;[H3425] because[H3588] I have given[H5414] it unto the children[H1121] of Lot[H3876] for a possession.[H3425]
20. ( That[H1931] also[H637] was accounted[H2803] a land[H776] of giants:[H7497] giants[H7497] dwelt[H3427] therein in old time;[H6440] and the Ammonites[H5984] call[H7121] them Zamzummims;[H2157]
21. A people[H5971] great,[H1419] and many,[H7227] and tall,[H7311] as the Anakims;[H6062] but the LORD[H3068] destroyed[H8045] them before[H4480] [H6440] them; and they succeeded[H3423] them, and dwelt[H3427] in their stead: [H8478]
22. As[H834] he did[H6213] to the children[H1121] of Esau,[H6215] which dwelt[H3427] in Seir,[H8165] when[H834] he destroyed[H8045] [H853] the Horims[H2752] from before[H4480] [H6440] them; and they succeeded[H3423] them, and dwelt[H3427] in their stead[H8478] even unto[H5704] this[H2088] day: [H3117]
23. And the Avims[H5757] which dwelt[H3427] in Hazerim,[H2699] even unto[H5704] Azzah,[H5804] the Caphtorims,[H3732] which came forth[H3318] out of Caphtor,[H4480] [H3731] destroyed[H8045] them, and dwelt[H3427] in their stead.)[H8478]
24. Rise ye up,[H6965] take your journey,[H5265] and pass over[H5674] [H853] the river[H5158] Arnon:[H769] behold,[H7200] I have given[H5414] into thine hand[H3027] [H853] Sihon[H5511] the Amorite,[H567] king[H4428] of Heshbon,[H2809] and his land:[H776] begin[H2490] to possess[H3423] it, and contend[H1624] with him in battle.[H4421]
25. This[H2088] day[H3117] will I begin[H2490] to put[H5414] the dread[H6343] of thee and the fear[H3374] of thee upon[H5921] the nations[H5971] that are under[H8478] the whole[H3605] heaven,[H8064] who[H834] shall hear[H8085] report[H8088] of thee, and shall tremble,[H7264] and be in anguish[H2342] because[H4480] [H6440] of thee.
26. And I sent[H7971] messengers[H4397] out of the wilderness[H4480] [H4057] of Kedemoth[H6932] unto[H413] Sihon[H5511] king[H4428] of Heshbon[H2809] with words[H1697] of peace,[H7965] saying,[H559]
27. Let me pass[H5674] through thy land:[H776] I will go[H1980] along by the highway,[H1870] [H1870] I will neither[H3808] turn[H5493] unto the right hand[H3225] nor to the left.[H8040]
28. Thou shalt sell[H7666] me meat[H400] for money,[H3701] that I may eat;[H398] and give[H5414] me water[H4325] for money,[H3701] that I may drink:[H8354] only[H7535] I will pass through[H5674] on my feet;[H7272]
29. (As[H834] the children[H1121] of Esau[H6215] which dwell[H3427] in Seir,[H8165] and the Moabites[H4125] which dwell[H3427] in Ar,[H6144] did[H6213] unto me;) until[H5704] [H834] I shall pass over[H5674] [H853] Jordan[H3383] into[H413] the land[H776] which[H834] the LORD[H3068] our God[H430] giveth[H5414] us.
30. But Sihon[H5511] king[H4428] of Heshbon[H2809] would[H14] not[H3808] let us pass[H5674] by him: for[H3588] the LORD[H3068] thy God[H430] hardened[H7185] [H853] his spirit,[H7307] and made his heart obstinate,[H553] [H853] [H3824] that[H4616] he might deliver[H5414] him into thy hand,[H3027] as appeareth this[H2088] day.[H3117]
31. And the LORD[H3068] said[H559] unto[H413] me, Behold,[H7200] I have begun[H2490] to give[H5414] [H853] Sihon[H5511] and his land[H776] before[H6440] thee: begin[H2490] to possess,[H3423] that thou mayest inherit[H3423] [H853] his land.[H776]
32. Then Sihon[H5511] came out[H3318] against[H7125] us, he[H1931] and all[H3605] his people,[H5971] to fight[H4421] at Jahaz.[H3096]
33. And the LORD[H3068] our God[H430] delivered[H5414] him before[H6440] us; and we smote[H5221] [H853] him, and his sons,[H1121] and all[H3605] his people.[H5971]
34. And we took[H3920] [H853] all[H3605] his cities[H5892] at that[H1931] time,[H6256] and utterly destroyed[H2763] the men,[H4962] and the women,[H802] and the little ones,[H2945] [H853] of every[H3605] city,[H5892] we left[H7604] none[H3808] to remain: [H8300]
35. Only[H7535] the cattle[H929] we took for a prey[H962] unto ourselves, and the spoil[H7998] of the cities[H5892] which[H834] we took.[H3920]
36. From[H4480] Aroer,[H6177] which[H834] is by[H5921] the brink[H8193] of the river[H5158] of Arnon,[H769] and from the city[H5892] that[H834] is by the river,[H5158] even unto[H5704] Gilead,[H1568] there was[H1961] not[H3808] one city[H7151] too strong[H7682] for[H4480] us: the LORD[H3068] our God[H430] delivered[H5414] [H853] all[H3605] unto[H6440] us:
37. Only[H7535] unto[H413] the land[H776] of the children[H1121] of Ammon[H5983] thou camest[H7126] not,[H3808] nor unto any[H3605] place[H3027] of the river[H5158] Jabbok,[H2999] nor unto the cities[H5892] in the mountains,[H2022] nor unto whatsoever[H3605] the LORD[H3068] our God[H430] forbade[H6680] us.
