New Testament

Deuter­­onomy 2:15-22 Modern English Version (MEV)

15. For indeed the hand of the Lord was against them, to destroy them from among their midst, until they were gone.

16. So it came to pass, when all the men of war were gone and dead from among the people,

17. then the Lord spoke to me, saying,

18. “Today, you are to pass over through Ar, the border of Moab.

19. When you come close to the Ammonites, do not harass them or provoke them, for I will not give you any of the land of the Ammonites as a possession, because I have given it to the children of Lot for a possession.”

20. (That also is considered the land of giants. Giants formerly lived there, but the Ammon­ites call them Zamzummites.

21. They were a great people, as numerous and tall as the Anakites. But the Lord destroyed them before the Ammonites. Then they dispossessed them and lived in their place,

22. just as He had done for the children of Esau, who lived in Seir, when He destroyed the Horites from before them, and they dispossessed them, and lived in their place even to this day.
