Deuteronomy 2:8-15 - Journey Past Moab

8 So we passed by from our brothers the sons of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah from Elath and from Ezion-geber. And we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab. 9 And LORD said to me, Do not vex Moab, neither contend with them in battle, for I will not give thee of his land for a possession, because I have given Ar to the sons of Lot for a possession.

10 (The Emim dwelt in it formerly, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim. 11 These also are accounted Rephaim, as the Anakim, but the Moabites call them Emim. 12 The Horites also dwelt in Seir formerly, but the sons of Esau succeeded them. And they destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead, as Israel did to the land of his possession, which LORD gave to them.)

13 Now rise up, and get you over the brook Zered. And we went over the brook Zered. 14 And the days in which we came from Kadesh-barnea, until we came over the brook Zered, were thirty-eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were consumed from the midst of the camp, as LORD swore to them. 15 Moreover the hand of LORD was against them, to destroy them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.
