Deuteronomy 2:17
15 Indeed, the LORD’s hand was against them, to eliminate them from the camp, until they had all perished.
16 Now when all the fighting men among the people had died,
the LORD said to me,
18 “Today you are going to cross the border of Moab at Ar.
19 But when you get close to the Ammonites, do not harass them or provoke them, for I will not give you any of the land of the Ammonites. I have given it to the descendants of Lot as their possession.”
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
