THE MESSAGE
When the last of these soldiers had died, God said to me, "This is the day you cut across the territory of Moab, at Ar. When you approach the People of Ammon, don't try and pick a fight with them because I'm not giving you any of the land of the People of Ammon for yourselves—I've already given it to the People of Lot." It is also considered to have once been the land of the Rephaites. Rephaites lived there long ago—the Ammonites called them Zamzummites (Barbarians)—huge mobs of them, giants like the Anakites. God destroyed them and the Ammonites moved in and took over. It was the same with the People of Esau who live in Seir— God got rid of the Horites who lived there earlier and they moved in and took over, as you can see. Regarding the Avvites who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorites who came from Caphtor (Crete) wiped them out and moved in.
New American Standard Bible (1995)
"So it came about when all the men of war had finally perished from among the people,

Contextual Overview

For I have given Ar as a possession to the sons of Lot. 10 The Emim lived there in days gone by, a great and plentiful people, and tall as the Anakim; 11 they are reckoned to be giants, they too, like the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim. 12 And the Horites lived in Seir before; and the sons of Esau dispossessed them and destroyed them from before them, and lived in their place, as Israel has done to the land of his possession, which Jehovah has given to them. 13 Now, rise up and you yourselves pass over the torrent Zered; and we crossed over the torrent Zered. 14 And the days in which we came from Kadesh-barnea, until we had crossed over the torrent Zered, were thirty eight years, until the end of all the generation, even the men of war were destroyed from the midst of the camp, as Jehovah swore to them. 15 And the hand of Jehovah was also against them, to destroy them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed. 16 And it happened, when all the men of war had finished dying from among the people, 17 Jehovah spoke to me, saying,
