¹⁶ “So it came about, when ^(A)all the men of war had finally perished from among the people, ¹⁷ that the Lord spoke to me, saying, ¹⁸ ‘Today you shall cross over ^(B)Ar, the border of Moab. ¹⁹ When you come opposite the ^(C)sons of Ammon, do not attack them nor provoke them, for I will not give you any of the land of the sons of Ammon as a possession, because I have given it to ^(D)the sons of Lot as a possession.’ ²⁰ (It is also regarded as the land of the ^(E)Rephaim, because the Rephaim previously lived in it, but the Ammonites call them Zamzummin, ²¹ a people as great, numerous, and tall as the Anakim; but the Lord destroyed them before ^[a]them. And they dispossessed them and settled in their place, ²² just as He did for the sons of Esau, who ^(F)live in Seir, when He destroyed ^(G)the Horites from before them; they dispossessed them and settled in their place, where they remain even to this day. ²³ And as for the ^(H)Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the ^[b](I)Caphtorim, who came from ^[c](J)Caphtor, destroyed them and lived in their place.) ²⁴ ‘Arise, set out, and pass through the ^[d](K)Valley of Arnon. Look! I have handed over to you Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; start taking possession and plunge into battle with him. ²⁵ This day I will begin to put ^(L)the dread and fear of you upon the faces of ^[e]people everywhere, ^[f]who, when they hear the news of you, ^(M)will tremble and be in anguish because of you.’
