Deuteronomy 2:9-18

9Then the Lord said to me, ‘Do not attack Moab, nor provoke them to war, for I will not give you any of 1their land as a possession, because I have given 2Ar to 3the sons of Lot as a possession.’ 10(The 4Emim lived there previously, a people as great, numerous, and tall as the Anakim. 11Like the Anakim, they too are regarded as 5Rephaim, but the Moabites call them Emim. 126The Horites previously lived in Seir, but the sons of Esau dispossessed them and destroyed them from before 7them, and settled in their place; 8just as Israel did to the land of 9their possession which the Lord gave them.) 13‘Now arise and cross over the 10Wadi Zered yourselves.’ So we crossed over the 11Wadi Zered. 14Now the 12time that it took for us to come from Kadesh-barnea until we crossed over the 13Wadi Zered was 14thirty-eight years, until 15all the generation of the men of war perished from within the camp, just as 16the Lord had sworn to them. 1517Indeed, the hand of the Lord was against them, to destroy them from within the camp until they all perished.

16“So it came about, when 18all the men of war had finally perished from among the people, 17that the Lord spoke to me, saying, 18‘Today you shall cross over 19Ar, the border of Moab.
