9 And Yahweh said to me, ‘You shall not attack Moab, and you shall not engage in war[d] with them, for I will not give you any of his land as a possession; I have given Ar to the descendants[e] of Lot as a possession.’ 10 (The Emim previously lived in it, a people large,[f] numerous, and tall, like the Anakites.

New International Version
8 So we went on past our relatives the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. We turned from(A) the Arabah(B) road, which comes up from Elath and Ezion Geber,(C) and traveled along the desert road of Moab.(D)
9 Then the Lord said to me, “Do not harass the Moabites or provoke them to war, for I will not give you any part of their land. I have given Ar(E) to the descendants of Lot(F) as a possession.”
10 (The Emites(G) used to live there—a people strong and numerous, and as tall as the Anakites.(H)
