05:002:009 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.

05:002:010 The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and
           many, and tall, as the Anakims;

05:002:011 Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims; but the
           Moabites called them Emims.

05:002:012 The Horims also dwelt in Seir beforetime; but the children of
           Esau succeeded them, when they had destroyed them from before
           them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel did unto the land of
           his possession, which the lord gave unto them.

05:002:013 Now rise up, said I, and get you over the brook Zered.  And we
           went over the brook Zered.

05:002:014 And the space in which we came from Kadeshbarnea, until we
           were come over the brook Zered, was thirty and eight years;
           until all the generation of the men of war were wasted out
           from among the host, as the lord sware unto them.

05:002:015 For indeed the hand of the lord was against them, to destroy
           them from among the host, until they were consumed.

05:002:016 So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and
           dead from among the people,

05:002:017 That the lord spake unto me, saying,

05:002:018 Thou art to pass over through Ar, the coast of Moab, this day: 

05:002:019 And when thou comest nigh over against the children of Ammon,
           distress them not, nor meddle with them:  for I will not give
           thee of the land of the children of Ammon any possession;
           because I have given it unto the children of Lot for a
           possession.

05:002:020 (That also was accounted a land of giants:  giants dwelt
           therein in old time; and the Ammonites call them Zamzummims;

05:002:021 A people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; but the
           lord destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and
           dwelt in their stead: 

05:002:022 As he did to the children of Esau, which dwelt in Seir, when
           he destroyed the Horims from before them; and they succeeded
           them, and dwelt in their stead even unto this day: 

05:002:023 And the Avims which dwelt in Hazerim, even unto Azzah, the
           Caphtorims, which came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them,
           and dwelt in their stead.)

05:002:024 Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the river Arnon: 
           behold, I have given into thine hand Sihon the Amorite, king
           of Heshbon, and his land:  begin to possess it, and contend
           with him in battle.
