Deuteronomy 2:5
Take ye then good heed that you stir not against them. For I will not give you of their land so much as the step of one foot can tread upon, because I have given mount Seir to Esau, for a possession.

- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Videte ergo diligenter ne moveamini contra eos. Neque enim dabo vobis de terra eorum quantum potest unius pedis calcare vestigium, quia in possessionem Esau dedi montem Seir.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- μὴ συνάψητε πρὸς αὐτοὺς πόλεμον· οὐ γὰρ μὴ δῶ ὑμῖν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς αὐτῶν οὐδὲ βῆμα ποδός, ὅτι ἐν κλήρῳ υἱοῖς Ἠσαὺ δέδωκα τὸ ὄρος τὸ Σηείρ.
- Hebrew (WLC)
- אַל תִּתְגָּר֣וּ בָ֔ם כִּ֠י לֹֽא אֶתֵּ֤ן לָכֶם֙ מֵֽאַרְצָ֔ם עַ֖ד מִדְרַ֣ךְ כַּף רָ֑גֶל כִּֽי יְרֻשָּׁ֣ה לְעֵשָׂ֔ו נָתַ֖תִּי אֶת הַ֥ר שֵׂעִֽיר
Haydock's commentary
Stir. Hebrew gur, meddle not, wage not war, do not molest, &c. The Idumeans near Mount Hor, afterwards refused the Hebrews a passage, and the necessaries of life, though their brethren in Mount Seir had granted them the latter, while they passed quietly along their borders, ver. 28. See Numbers xx. 21. (Haydock)
