Deuteronomy 2:16-23 - Journey Past Ammon

¹⁶ So when death had overtaken all the men of war among the people, ¹⁷ The word of the Lord came to me, saying, ¹⁸ You are about to go by Ar, the limit of the country of Moab; ¹⁹ And when you come near the land of the children of Ammon, give them no cause of trouble and do not make war on them, for I will not give you any of the land of the children of Ammon for your heritage: because I have given it to the children of Lot.

²⁰ (That land is said to have been a land of the Rephaim, for Rephaim had been living there in earlier times, but they were named Zamzummim by the Ammonites; ²¹ They were a great people, tall as the Anakim, and equal to them in number; but the Lord sent destruction on them and the children of Ammon took their place, living in their land; ²² As he did for the children of Esau living in Seir, when he sent destruction on the Horites before them, and they took their land where they are living to this day: ²³ And the Avvim, living in the small towns as far as Gaza, came to destruction by the hands of the Caphtorim who came out from Caphtor and took their land.)
