Deuteronomy 2:12-14

Contemporary English Version

¹² The Horites used to live in Seir, but the Edomites^[a] took over that region. They killed many of the Horites and forced the rest of them to leave, just as Israel did to the people in the land that the Lord gave them.

Israel Crossed the Zered Gorge

Moses said to Israel:

¹³ When we came to the Zered Gorge along the southern border of Moab, the Lord told us to cross the gorge into Moab, and we did. ^14 (A) This was 38 years after we left Kadesh-Barnea, and by that time all the men who had been in the army at Kadesh-Barnea had died, just as the Lord had said they would.
