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

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:9 - And the LORD said to me, 'Do not harass Moab or contend with them in battle, for I will not give you any of their land for a possession, because I have given Ar to the sons of Lot for a possession.'
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:10 - (The Emim formerly lived there, a people great and many, and tall as the Anakim;

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:18 - 'This day you are to pass over the boundary of Moab at Ar;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:19 - and when you approach the frontier of the sons of Ammon, do not harass them or contend with them, for I will not give you any of the land of the sons of Ammon as a possession, because I have given it to the sons of Lot for a possession.'
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:20 - (That also is known as a land of Reph'aim; Reph'aim formerly lived there, but the Ammonites call them Zamzum'mim,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:21 - a people great and many, and tall as the Anakim; but the LORD destroyed them before them; and they dispossessed them, and settled in their stead;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:22 - as he did for the sons of Esau, who live in Se'ir, when he destroyed the Horites before them, and they dispossessed them, and settled in their stead even to this day.

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:28 - You shall 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 foot,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:29 - as the sons of Esau who live in Se'ir and the Moabites who live in Ar did for me, until I go over the Jordan into the land which the LORD our God gives to us.'
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:30 - But Sihon the king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for the LORD your God hardened his spirit and made his heart obstinate, that he might give him into your hand, as at this day.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:31 - And the LORD said to me, 'Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land over to you; begin to take possession, that you may occupy his land.'

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:33 - And the LORD our God gave him over to us; and we defeated him and his sons and all his people.
