Then turned we and drew to the wilderness by the way of the red Sea, as the Lord had said to me: and we compassed about mount Seir many a day. 2 And the Lord spake unto me, saying: 3 Ye have gone long enough about this mountain: turn ye towards the North. 4 And warn thou the people, saying: ye shall shortly pass through the borders of your brethren the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and they shall be afraid of you: but take ye good heed to your selves, 5 That ye provoke them not: for I will not give you so much as one foot of their land. 6 Ye shall buy victuals of them for money, and eat: and likewise ye shall buy water of them for money, and drink. 7 For the Lord thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hands. He knew that thou shouldest journey through this great wilderness. The Lord thy God hath bin with thee now these forty years, and thou hast wanted nothing.
