               went in the way before you, to search you out a of your brethren the children of Esau, which
               place to pitch your tentes in, in fire by night, that dwell in Seir, and they shall be afraide of you:
               ye might see what way to goe, and in a cloude take ye good heede therefore.        5  Ye shall not
               by day.   34  Then the Lord heard the voyce of prouoke them: for I wil not giue you of their
               your wordes, and was wroth, and sware, saying, land so much as a foot breadth, because I haue
                                                                                                             6

               sware to giue vnto your fathers,  36 Saue Caleb the  ye shall also procure water of them for money
               sonne of Iephunneh: he shall see it, and to him   to drinke.  7  For the Lord thy God hath blessed
               will I giue the land that he hath troden vpon,    thee in all the workes of thine hand: he knoweth
               and to his children, because he hath constantly   thy walking through this great wildernes, and the
               followed the Lord.   37  Also the Lord was angry  Lord thy God hath bene with thee this fourtie
                                                                                                     8
               with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also shalt   yeere, and thou hast lacked nothing. And when
               not goe in thither,  38  But Ioshua the sonne of  we were departed from our brethren the children
               Nun which standeth before thee, he shall go in    of Esau which dwelt in Seir, through the way of
               thither: incourage him: for he shall cause Israel  the plaine, from Elath, and from Ezion-gaber, we
               to inherite it.  39 Moreouer, your children, which  turned and went by the way of the wildernes
               ye sayd should be a praye, and your sonnes,       of Moab.   9  Then the Lord sayd vnto me, Thou
               which in that day had no knowledge betweene       shalt not vexe Moab, neither prouoke them to
               good and euill, they shall go in thither, and vnto  battel: for I wil not giue thee of their land for
               them wil I giue it, and they shall possesse it.   a possession, because I haue giuen Ar vnto the

               iourney into the wildernesse by the way of the    dwelt therein in times past, a people great and
               red Sea.  41  Then ye answered and sayd vnto me,  many, and tall, as the Anakims.    11  They also
               We haue sinned against the Lord, we wil go vp,    were taken for gyants as the Anakims: whom the
               and fight, according to all that the Lord our God  Moabites call Emims.  12  The Horims also dwelt
                                                                 in Seir before time, whome the children of Esau
               hath commanded vs: and ye armed you euery         chased out and destroyed them before them, and
               man to the warre, and were ready to goe vp into   dwelt in their steade: as Israel shall doe vnto
               the mountaine.  42 But the Lord said vnto me, Say  the land of his possession, which the Lord hath
               vnto them, Goe not vp, neither fight, (for I am giuen them.    13 Now rise vp, sayd I, and get you
               not among you) least ye fall before your enemies. ouer the riuer Zered: and we went ouer the riuer
               43  And when I told you, ye would not heare, but Zered.  14 The space also wherein we came from
               rebelled against the commandement of the Lord, Kadesh-barnea, vntill we were come ouer the

               mountaine.  44 Then the Amorites which dwelt in   the generation of the men of warre were wasted
               that mountaine came out against you, and chased out from among the hoste, as the Lord sware vnto
               you (as bees vse to doe) and destroied you in Seir, them.  15  For in deede the hand of the Lord was
               euen vnto Hormah.   45 And when ye came againe,   against them, to destroy them from among the
               ye wept before the Lord, but the Lord would not   hoste, till they were consumed.  16  So when all
               heare your voyce, nor incline his eares vnto you.  the men of warre were consumed and dead from
               46 So ye abode in Kadesh a long time, according to  among the people:  17  Then the Lord spake vnto
                                                                            18
               the time that ye had remained before.             me, saying, Thou shalt goe through Ar the coast
