13 Now get ready to cross the Wadi Zered.So we crossed the Wadi Zered.
14 Now thirty-eight years had elapsed between our departure from Kadesh-barnea and the crossing of the Wadi Zered; in the meantime the whole generation of soldiers had perished from the camp, as the Lord had sworn they should.
15 Indeed the Lord’s own hand was against them, to rout them from the camp completely.
16 When at length death had put an end to all the soldiers among the people,
17 the Lord said to me,
18 You are now about to leave Ar and the territory of Moab behind.
19 As you come opposite the Ammonites, do not show hostility or come in conflict with them, for I will not give you possession of any land of the Ammonites, since I have given it to the descendants of Lot as their possession.
