05:001:039 Moreover your little ones, which ye said
should be a prey, and
your
children, which in that day had no knowledge between
good
and
evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will
I give
it,
and they shall possess it.
05:001:040 But as for you, turn you, and take your
journey into the
wilderness
by the way of the Red sea.
05:001:041 Then ye answered and said unto me, We have
sinned against the
lord,
we will go up and fight, according to all that the
lord
our
God commanded us. And when ye had girded on every
man his
weapons
of war, ye were ready to go up into the hill.
05:001:042 And the lord said unto me, Say unto
them. Go not up, neither
fight;
for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your
enemies.
05:001:043 So I spake unto you; and ye would not hear,
but rebelled
against
the commandment of the lord, and went presumptuously
up
into the hill.
05:001:044 And the Amorites, which dwelt in that mountain,
came out
against
you, and chased you, as bees do, and destroyed you
in
Seir,
even unto Hormah.
05:001:045 And ye returned and wept before the lord;
but the lord would
not
hearken to your voice, nor give ear unto you.
05:001:046 So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according
unto the days that
ye
abode there.
05:002:001 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.
05:002:002 And the lord spake unto me, saying,
05:002:003 Ye have compassed this mountain long enough:
turn you
northward.
05:002:004 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:
05:002:005 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.
05:002:006 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.
05:002:007 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.
05:002:008 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.
