Edomites, the » Dwelt in mount seir
Then Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother, to the land of Seir, the territory of Edom.
and instruct the people, {saying}, "You [are] about to cross [through] the territory of your brothers, the descendants of Esau, who are living in Seir; they will be afraid of you, and [so] be very careful. Do not get involved in battle with them, for I will not give you any of their land, not even {a foot's breadth} [of it]; since I have given Mount Seir [as] a possession for Esau.
