9 Then the LORD said to me, “Do not harass the Moabites or provoke them to war, for I will not give you any of their land, because I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot as their possession.”
10 (The Emites used to live there, a people great and many, as tall as the Anakites.
11 Like the Anakites, they were also regarded as Rephaim, though the Moabites called them Emites.
