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 (D)I have given Mount Seir to Esau as a possession. (E)You shall purchase food from them with money, that you may eat, and you shall also buy water from them with money, that you may drink.

Do not provoke them to war, for I will not give you any of their land, not even enough to put your foot on. I have given Esau the hill country of Seir as his own.(E) You are to pay them in silver for the food you eat and the water you drink.’”
