RF DEU 2:1 Until you turned back and marched to the desert towards the Sea of Suf, as the EVER-LIVING commanded me, and wandered about the hills of Sair a long time.
RF DEU 2:2 At last the EVER-LIVING said to me;
RF DEU 2:3 "You have wandered about this hill enough! Turn to the north,
RF DEU 2:4 and command the People saying to them,' Pass over the borders of your brothers, the sons of Esau, who dwell in Sair. But they will be afraid of you, so carefully guard yourselves.
RF DEU 2:5 And injure them not; for I will not give you a foot's space of their country, because I have given Mount Sair to Esau as a possession.
RF DEU 2:6 You must buy food from them with money, and eat it; and also purchase water from them for money, and drink it;
RF DEU 2:7 for your EVER-LIVING GOD has blessed you in every work of your hand, whilst you travelled this great desert these forty years; your EVER-LIVING GOD has been with you, and you have wanted for nothing.'"
RF DEU 2:8 You consequently passed by your brothers the sons of Esau, who occupy Sair, by the road of the Arabah to Ailath, and Atzian-gaber, where you turned off and traversed the road of the desert of Moab.
RF DEU 2:9 There the EVER-LIVING said to me, "Do not trouble Moab, but keep yourselves from fighting. Turn, for I have not granted you his country, because I have given Ar to the sons of Lot as a possession."
RF DEU 2:10 (The Amim formerly occupied it, a great and numerous nation,
RF DEU 2:11 and tall, like Anakim; they considered themselves also to be Rephaim like the Anakim,—but the Moabites called them Amim.
RF DEU 2:12 And the Khorites dwelt in Sair before them, but the sons of Esau expelled them, and drove them from the place, and occupied it in their stead, as the children of Israel did in the country they seized which the EVER-LIVING gave to them.)
RF DEU 2:13 Then you arose and massed the Vale of Yared, and at the passage of the Vale of Yared,
RF DEU 2:14 including the period of the march from KadeshBarnea, until the time you crossed the Vale of Yared, was thirty-eight years, until all the generation of fighting men belonging to the camp were dead, as the EVER-LIVING threatened them.
RF DEU 2:15 For the hand of the EVER-LIVING was against them to destroy them out of the camp until they perished.
RF DEU 2:16 And when all the fighting men had died from among the People,
RF DEU 2:17 then the EVER-LIVING spoke to me, and said,
RF DEU 2:18 "Now cross over to-day the boundaries of Moab at Ar.

Note Verses. 10 thru 12 are an ancient editor's note, not a part of the text of Moses. It was probably added by Ezra, when he edited the Pentateuch, after the return from Babylon, as all the other notes which I consequently transfer to the foot of the pages.—F.F.
RF DEU 2:19 But when you approach the sons of Amon, neither distress nor hurt them, for I will not give the country of the sons of Amon to you to possess, for I have given it to the sons of Lot as a possession.1
RF DEU 2:20 (This also was considered a country of the Rephaim, because the Rephaim resided there formerly, but the Amorites called them Yim-yimim.
RF DEU 2:21 They were a great and numerous people, like the Anakim, but the EVER-LIVING destroyed them before those, who drove them out, and inhabited in their place;
RF DEU 2:22 as He did for the sons of Esau who occupy Mount Sair, who expelled the Khorites formerly, and drove them out, and dwell in their place until this day.
RF DEU 2:23 The Avites also resided in the fortresses until the powerful Kaphtorites came from Kaphtor and defeated them, and they reside after them.)
RF DEU 2:24 "Rise! march! and cross the River Arnon! See! I have given you Sihon, King of Heshbon, the Amorite, and his country to break, assail, and defeat it in war, I have broken him this day,—
RF DEU 2:25 putting the dread and fear of you upon the face of the nations, under every sky, who may hear the reports about you. They tremble and faint before you!"
RF DEU 2:26 Then I sent ambassadors from the desert of the East to Sihon, King of Heshbon with proposals of peace, and said;—
RF DEU 2:27 "I wish to pass across your country by the king's highway, I will not march many days, or deviate.
RF DEU 2:28 You shall sell food for money, and I will eat it; and pay money for the water you give and I drink it. I only wish to pass over on my feet.
RF DEU 2:29 Do to me as the sons of Esau did who dwell in Sair, and the Moabites who inhabit Ar, until I have crossed the Jordan, to the land which our EVER-LIVING GOD has given us."
RF DEU 2:30 But Sihon, King of Heshbon was not willing you should cross over him, for your EVER-LIVING GOD had stupefied his mind, and emboldened his heart, that by it He might give him into your hand, as He has now done.
RF DEU 2:31 The EVER-LIVING GOD also said; "See! I have begun to give up Sihon and his country before you; seize it! take his land for a possession!"

1. Verses. 20 to end of 23 are a note of an ancient editor, probably Ezra, not part of the original text of Moses.—F.F.
RF DEU 2:32 Then Sihon advanced to meet us, he and all his force to fight at Jahaz.
RF DEU 2:33 But our EVER-LIVING GOD delivered him to us; and struck him and his son and all his forces;
RF DEU 2:34 and at that time we captured all his towns, and devoted all his cities, nor allowed the men, women or children to escape.
RF DEU 2:35 Beside the cattle we seized for ourselves, and the plunder of the cities which we captured;
RF DEU 2:36 from Aroar on the banks of the Arnon, and the towns in the valley, and as far as Gilad—there was not a city that was too strong for us,—our EVER-LIVING GOD delivered the whole to our approach!
RF DEU 2:37 The whole extent of the country of the Ammonites, all along the vale of Jabbok, with the towns of the Highlands, and all that our EVER-LIVING GOD commanded.
