2 The Lord then said to me, 3 ‘You’ve been traveling around this hill country long enough; turn north.m 4 Command the people: You are about to travel through the territory of your brothers, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. They will be afraid of you, so be very careful. 5 Don’t provoke them, for I will not give you any of their land, not even a foot of it,D because I have given Esau the hill country of Seir as his possession.n 6 You may purchase food from them, so that you may eat, and buy water from them to drink.o
