← Deuteronomy 2:8	Deuteronomy 2:9 (KJV)	Deuteronomy 2:10 →
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.	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.	The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims;
