Deuteronomy2:9

9 And the LORD said unto me, Distress not the Moabites, neither contend with them in battel: for I will not give thee of their land for a possession, because I have given Ar unto the children of Lot for a possession.

The chief City of the Moabites, Numb. 21. 15, 28. here put for the whole Country which depended upon it.

So called to signifie that this preservation, was not for their sakes, for they were a wicked people, but for Lets sake whose memory God yet honours.

Marginal references: Or, use no ho [illegible: 1+ letters] against Moab.
