Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:5 - contend not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession.

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:19 - and when thou comest nigh over against the children of Ammon, vex them not, nor contend with them; for I will not give thee of the land of the children of Ammon for a possession; because I have given it unto the children of Lot for a possession.

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:28 - Thou shalt sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink: only let me pass through on my feet;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:29 - as the children of Esau that dwell in Seir, and the Moabites that dwell in Ar, did unto me; until I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which Jehovah our God giveth us.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:30 - But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for Jehovah thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as at this day.
