"^(C1)Then we turned and set out for the wilderness by the way of the ^(F1)Red Sea, as the LORD spoke to me, and we circled ^(C2)Mount Seir for many days.

"And the LORD spoke to me, saying,

'You have circled this mountain long enough. Now turn north,

^(C1)and command the people, saying, "You are going to pass through the ^(C2)territory of your brothers the sons of Esau, who live in Seir; and ^(C3)they will be afraid of you. So be very careful;

do not ^(F1)provoke them, for I will not give you any of their land, not even as much as a ^(F2)footprint, ^(C1)because I have given Mount Seir to Esau as a possession.

"You are to buy food from them with money so that you may eat, and you shall also purchase water from them with money so that you may drink.

"For the LORD your God has blessed you in all ^(F1)that you have done; He has known your ^(F2)wandering through this ^(C1)great wilderness. These ^(C2)forty years the LORD your God has been with you; you have not lacked anything."'
