Berean Standard Bible
Then we turned ,
and took
our
journey
into
the wilderness by the
way of the Red sea, as the LORD spake
unto
me :
and we compassed
mount Seir many
days
.
Then we turned back
and headed
for
the wilderness by way of the Red Sea, as the LORD had
instructed
me ,
and for
many
days
we wandered
around
Mount Seir.
And
the LORD spake
unto
me, saying,
At
this
time
the LORD said
to
me,
Ye
have compassed
this mountain
long enough :
turn you
northward.
“You
have been
wandering
around
this hill
country
long enough ;
turn to
the
north
And command thou
the people ,
saying,
Ye
are
to
pass through the coast
of your brethren
the children
of Esau, which
dwell
in Seir ;
and
they shall
be afraid of you :
take
ye
good
heed
unto
yourselves
therefore:
and command the people :
‘You
will
pass through the territory
of your brothers,
the descendants
of Esau, who
live
in Seir .
They will
be afraid of you ,
so
you
must
be
very
careful.
Meddle
not with
them ;
for I will not give you of their land, no,
not so
much
as
a foot
breadth;
because I have given mount Seir unto
Esau for
a
possession.
Do
not provoke
them ,
for I will not give you any
of their land, not even
a footprint,
because I have given Mount Seir to
Esau as
his
possession.
Ye
shall
buy
meat
of
them for money,
that
ye
may
eat ;
and ye
shall
also
buy
water of
them
for
money,
that
ye
may
drink.
You
are
to
pay
them in
silver
for the
food
you
eat and the
water you
drink. ’”
For
the LORD thy
God hath
blessed thee
in all the works
of thy
hand:
he knoweth
thy
walking
through this great
wilderness :
these
forty
years
the LORD thy
God hath
been with thee;
thou
hast
lacked nothing.
Indeed,
the LORD your
God has
blessed you
in all the work
of your
hands.
He has
watched
over
your
journey
through this vast
wilderness .
The LORD your
God has
been with you
these
forty
years,
and
you
have
lacked nothing.
And
when
we passed by from
our brethren
the children
of Esau, which
dwelt
in Seir ,
through
the
way
of
the plain
from Elath ,
and from
Eziongaber
, we
turned
and passed
by
the way
of the wilderness of Moab.
So
we passed by our brothers,
the descendants
of Esau, who
live
in Seir .
We
turned
away
from
the Arabah
road,
which
comes
up
from Elath and Ezion-geber
, and traveled
along
the road
of the Wilderness of Moab.
And
the LORD said unto
me, Distress
not the Moabites ,
neither
contend
with
them in
battle:
for I will not give thee
of their land for
a
possession;
because I have given Ar unto
the children
of Lot for
a
possession.
Then
the LORD said to
me, “Do
not harass
the Moabites or
provoke
them to
war,
for I will not give you
any
of their land ,
because I have given Ar to
the descendants
of Lot as
their
possession. ”
The Emims
dwelt
therein
in
times
past
, a people great ,
and many, and
tall ,
as the Anakims;
(
The Emites
used
to
live
there
, a people great and many, as
tall as the Anakites.
Which
also
were
accounted
giants
, as the
Anakims;
but
the Moabites called them Emims
.
Like
the
Anakites
, they
were
also
regarded
as Rephaim,
though
the Moabites called them Emites
.
The Horims
also
dwelt
in Seir beforetime;
but the children
of Esau succeeded
them ,
when
they had
destroyed them
from before them ,
and dwelt
in their stead;
as Israel did unto
the land of
his
possession,
which
the LORD gave unto
them.
The Horites
used
to
live
in Seir ,
but the descendants
of Esau drove
them out.
They destroyed the
Horites
from before them and settled
in their place,
just
as Israel did in
the land that
the LORD gave them as
their
possession
. )
Now rise
up,
said
I,
and get
you
over the brook Zered. And
we went
over the brook Zered.
“
Now arise
and cross
over the Brook of
Zered. ”
So
we crossed
over the Brook of
Zered.
And
the space
in
which
we came
from Kadeshbarnea,
until we were
come
over the brook Zered ,
was thirty and
eight years ;
until all
the
generation of the
men of
war
were
wasted
out
from among
the host
, as the LORD sware
unto
them.
The time
we spent
traveling
from Kadesh-barnea
until we crossed
over the Brook of
Zered was thirty -
eight years ,
until that
entire
generation of fighting
men had
perished
from the camp
, as the LORD had
sworn
to
them.
For
indeed the hand of
the
LORD
was against them, to destroy
them from among
the host
, until they were
consumed
.
Indeed ,
the LORD’s
hand was against them, to eliminate
them from the camp
, until they had
all
perished
.
So
it
came
to
pass,
when all the men of
war
were
consumed
and
dead
from
among the people,
Now
when all the fighting
men among the people had
died
,
That
the LORD spake
unto
me, saying,
the LORD said
to
me,
Thou
art
to pass
over
through
Ar,
the coast
of Moab ,
this
day:
“Today
you
are
going
to cross
the border
of Moab at
Ar.
And
when thou
comest
nigh
over
against
the children
of
Ammon
, distress
them
not ,
nor
meddle
with
them :
for I will not give thee
of the land of the children
of
Ammon
any
possession;
because
I have given it unto
the children
of Lot for
a
possession.
But
when you
get
close
to
the Ammonites
, do
not harass
them or
provoke
them,
for I will not give you
any
of the land of the Ammonites.
I have given it to
the descendants
of Lot as
their
possession. ”
(That also
was accounted
a
land of giants:
giants
dwelt
therein
in
old
time;
and
the Ammonites call
them Zamzummims;
(That too
was regarded
as
the
land of the Rephaim,
who
used
to
live
there,
though
the
Ammonites called
them Zamzummites.
A people great ,
and many, and
tall ,
as the Anakims;
but the LORD destroyed them before them;
and
they
succeeded
them
, and dwelt
in their stead:
They
were
a people great and many, as
tall as the Anakites.
But the LORD destroyed them from
before the
Ammonites
, who
drove
them
out
and settled
in their place,
As he did
to
the children
of Esau ,
which
dwelt
in Seir, when he destroyed the Horims
from before them ;
and
they succeeded
them ,
and dwelt
in their stead
even
unto
this day :
just
as He had
done
for
the descendants
of Esau who
lived
in Seir, when He destroyed the Horites
from before them .
They drove
them out
and have
lived
in their place
to
this day .
And the Avims
which
dwelt
in
Hazerim
, even
unto
Azzah
, the Caphtorims
, which
came forth
out of Caphtor ,
destroyed
them,
and dwelt
in their stead
.)
And the Avvim
, who
lived
in
villages
as
far
as
Gaza
, were
destroyed
by
the Caphtorites
, who
came out of Caphtor and settled
in their place
.)
Rise
ye
up
, take
your
journey
, and pass
over
the river
Arnon :
behold
, I have given
into thine
hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land :
begin to possess
it ,
and contend
with
him in battle.
“Arise
, set
out
, and cross
the Arnon Valley.
See
, I have delivered
into your
hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land .
Begin to take
possession
of
it and engage
him in battle.
This day will
I begin to put the dread of
thee
and the
fear of thee
upon the nations that
are
under the
whole
heaven ,
who
shall
hear report
of thee,
and shall
tremble ,
and
be
in anguish because of thee
.
This very
day I will
begin to put the dread and fear of you
upon all
the nations under heaven .
They
will
hear the
reports
of you
and tremble in anguish because of you
. ”
And
I
sent
messengers
out
of
the wilderness of Kedemoth unto
Sihon king of Heshbon with
words
of
peace
, saying,
So
from
the Wilderness of Kedemoth I
sent
messengers
with
an
offer
of
peace
to
Sihon king of Heshbon, saying,
Let me
pass through thy
land :
I
will go
along
by
the high
way,
I
will neither
turn unto
the right hand
nor
to the left.
“
Let us
pass through your
land ;
we
will stay
on
the main
road.
We
will not
turn to
the right or
to the left.
Thou
shalt
sell me
meat
for
money,
that
I
may
eat ;
and give
me
water for
money,
that
I
may
drink :
only I
will
pass through on my
feet;
You
can
sell us
food
to
eat and water to
drink in
exchange
for
silver.
Only let
us
pass through on foot,
(
As the children
of Esau which
dwell
in Seir ,
and the Moabites which
dwell
in Ar ,
did unto
me;)
until I
shall
pass
over
Jordan into the land which
the LORD our God giveth
us.
just
as the descendants
of Esau who
live
in Seir and the Moabites who
live
in Ar did for
us,
until we
cross
the
Jordan into the land that
the LORD our God is
giving
us. ”
But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by
him:
for the LORD thy
God hardened
his spirit ,
and made
his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy
hand, as appeareth
this day.
But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass through,
for the LORD your
God had
made
his spirit stubborn
and his heart obstinate, that He might deliver him into your
hand, as is
the
case
this day.
And
the LORD said unto
me, Behold
, I have begun to give
Sihon and his land before
thee:
begin to possess ,
that
thou
mayest
inherit
his land.
Then
the LORD said to
me, “See
, I have begun to deliver
Sihon and his land over
to
you.
Now
begin to conquer
and
possess his land. ”
Then
Sihon came out against us ,
he
and
all
his
people,
to
fight
at Jahaz.
So
Sihon and
his
whole
army
came out for
battle
against us at Jahaz.
And the LORD our God delivered him before
us ;
and we smote
him ,
and his sons ,
and all
his people
.
And the LORD our God delivered him over
to
us ,
and we defeated
him and his sons and his whole
army
.
And
we took
all his cities at
that
time,
and utterly
destroyed
the
men,
and
the
women,
and
the little
ones,
of every city, we left none
to
remain:
At
that
time
we captured
all his cities and devoted
to
destruction
the people
of every city, including
women
and
children.
We left no
survivors.
Only
the
cattle
we took
for a
prey
unto
ourselves ,
and the spoil
of
the cities which
we took
.
We carried
off
for ourselves only
the
livestock
and the plunder
from
the cities we captured
.
From Aroer ,
which
is
by
the brink
of the river
of
Arnon, and
from
the city that
is
by
the river
, even unto
Gilead, there
was
not one city too strong
for us :
the LORD our God delivered
all
unto
us :
From Aroer on
the rim
of the Arnon Valley
, along
with
the city in
the valley
, even as
far
as
Gilead, not one city had
walls
too high
for us .
The LORD our God gave
us all
of
them.
Only
unto
the land of the children
of
Ammon
thou
camest
not
, nor
unto
any
place
of the river
Jabbok, nor
unto
the cities in
the mountains
, nor
unto
whatsoever
the LORD our God forbade
us
.
But
you
did
not
go
near
the land of the Ammonites
, or
the
land
along
the
banks
of the Jabbok River
, or
the cities of
the hill
country
, or
any
place
that
the LORD our God had
forbidden
.
