Deuteronomy 2:6-8

New Catholic Bible

⁶ You are to purchase your food with silver, and you will also purchase your drinking water with silver. ⁷ The Lord, your God, has blessed you in all your undertakings, and he has watched over your journey through this great wilderness these forty years. The Lord, your God, has been with you, and you have lacked for nothing.’ ”

⁸ So we went on, bypassing our kin, the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir. We turned from the Arabah road that comes up from Elath and Ezion-geber and traveled along the desert road of Moab.
