2 Chronicles 20:10

Context
20:10 Now the Ammonites, Moabites, and men from Mount Seir are coming! 1  When Israel came from the land of Egypt, you did not allow them to invade these lands. 2  They bypassed them and did not destroy them.

2 Chronicles 20:23

Context
20:23 The Ammonites and Moabites attacked the men from Mount Seir 3  and annihilated them. 4  When they had finished off the men 5  of Seir, they attacked and destroyed one another. 6 

1 tn Heb “now, look, the sons of Ammon, Moab and Mount Seir.”

2 tn Heb “whom you did not allow Israel to enter when they came from the land of Egypt.”

3 tn Heb “the sons of Ammon and Moab stood against the residents of Mount Seir.”

4 tn Heb “to annihilate and to destroy.”

5 tn Heb “residents.”

6 tn Heb “they helped, each one his fellow, for destruction.” The verb עָזַר (’azar), traditionally understood as the well-attested verb meaning “to help,” is an odd fit in this context. It is possible that it is from a homonymic root, perhaps meaning to “attack.” This root is attested in Ugaritic in a nominal form meaning “young man, warrior, hero.” For a discussion of the proposed root, see HALOT 811 s.v. II עזר.
