21 a people as great, numerous, and tall as the Anakim; but the Lord destroyed them before [a]them. And they dispossessed them and settled in their place, 22 just as He did for the sons of Esau, who (A)live in Seir, when He destroyed (B)the Horites from before them; they dispossessed them and settled in their place, where they remain even to this day. 23 And as for the (C)Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the [b](D)Caphtorim, who came from [c](E)Caphtor, destroyed them and lived in their place.)

21 They were a people strong and numerous, and as tall as the Anakites.(A) The Lord destroyed them from before the Ammonites, who drove them out and settled in their place. 22 The Lord had done the same for the descendants of Esau, who lived in Seir,(B) when he destroyed the Horites from before them. They drove them out and have lived in their place to this day. 23 And as for the Avvites(C) who lived in villages as far as Gaza,(D) the Caphtorites(E) coming out from Caphtor[a](F) destroyed them and settled in their place.)
