Deuteronomy 2:22

As he did to the children of Esau, which dwelt in Seir, when he destroyed the Horims from before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead even unto this day:

As he did {H6213} to the children {H1121} of Esau {H6215}, which dwelt {H3427} in Seir {H8165}, when he destroyed {H8045} the Horims {H2752} from before {H6440} them; and they succeeded {H3423} them, and dwelt {H3427} in their stead even unto this day {H3117}:

just as he destroyed the Horim as descendants of 'Esav advanced into Se'ir and settled in their place, where they live to this day.

just as He had done for the descendants of Esau who lived in Seir, when He destroyed the Horites from before them. They drove them out and have lived in their place to this day.

as he did for the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead even unto this day.
