  2. 2And Jehovah spake unto me, saying,
  3. 3Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you northward.
  4. 4And command thou the people, saying, Ye are to pass through the border of your brethren the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you. Take ye good heed unto yourselves therefore;
  5. 5contend not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession.
