Deuteronomy 2:1-6

RHE

NIV

1 And departing from thence we came into the wilderness that leadeth to the Red Sea, as the Lord had spoken to me: and we compassed mount Seir a long time.
1 Then we turned back and set out toward the wilderness along the route to the Red Sea, as the LORD had directed me. For a long time we made our way around the hill country of Seir.
2 And the Lord said to me:
2 Then the LORD said to me,
3 You have compassed this mountain long enough: go toward the north:
3 “You have made your way around this hill country long enough; now turn north.
4 And command thou the people, saying: You shall pass by the borders of your brethren the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, and they will be afraid of you.
4 Give the people these orders: ‘You are about to pass through the territory of your relatives the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. They will be afraid of you, but be very careful.
5 Take ye then good heed that you stir not against them. For I will not give you of their land so much as the step of one foot can tread upon, because I have given mount Seir to Esau, for a possession.
5 Do not provoke them to war, for I will not give you any of their land, not even enough to put your foot on. I have given Esau the hill country of Seir as his own.
6 You shall buy meats of them for money and shall eat: you shall draw waters for money, and shall drink.
6 You are to pay them in silver for the food you eat and the water you drink.’ ”
