Now rise up (said I) and get you over the river Zared: and we went over the river Zared. The space in which we came from Cades bernea until we were come over the river Zared was .xxxviij. years: until all the generation of the men of war were wasted out of the host as the Lord sware unto them. For in deed the hand of the Lord was against them, to destroy them out of the host, till they were consumed.
Now ryse vpp (sayed I) ād get you ouer the ryuer Zared: ād we went ouer the ryuer Zared.

And the Avims which dwelt in Hazarim even unto Aza, the Caphthoryms which came out of Caphthor destroyed them and dwelt in the ir rooms.
And as soone as all the men of warre were consumed and deed from amonge the people, then the Lorde spake vnto me sayenge. Thou shalt goo thorow Ar the coste of Moab this daye, and shalt come nye vnto the childern of Ammon: se that thou vexe them not, nor yet prouoke them. For I will not geue the of the londe of the childern of Ammon to possesse, because I haue geuen it vnto the childern of loth to possesse. That also was taken for a londe of geauntes and geauntes dwelt therim in olde tyme, and the Ammonites called them Zamzumyms. A people that was great, many and taule, as the Enakyms. But the
