Deuteronomy 2:22
just as He did for the sons of Esau, who live in Seir, when He destroyed the Horites from before them; they dispossessed them and settled in their place, where they remain even to this day.

Genesis 14:6
and the Horites on their Mount Seir, as far as El paran, which is by the wilderness.

Numbers 21:21-35
Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon, king of the Amorites, saying,“ Let me pass through your land. We will not turn off into field or vineyard; we will not drink water from wells. We will go by the king’s road until we have passed through your border.”But Sihon would not permit Israel to pass through his border. Instead, Sihon gathered all his people and went out against Israel in the wilderness, and came to Jahaz and fought against Israel.Then Israel struck him with the edge of the sword, and took possession of his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, as far as the sons of Ammon; for the border of the sons of Ammon was Jazer.Israel took all these cities, and Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon and in all her villages.For Heshbon was the city of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab and had taken all his land out of his hand, as far as the Arnon.For that reason those who use proverbs say,“ Come to Heshbon! Let it be built! So let the city of Sihon be established.For a fire spread from Heshbon, A flame from the town of Sihon; It devoured Ar of Moab, The dominant heights of the Arnon.Woe to you, Moab! You are destroyed, people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, And his daughters into captivity, To an Amorite king, Sihon.But we have shot them down with arrows, Heshbon is destroyed as far as Dibon, Then we have laid waste as far as Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba.”So Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.Now Moses sent men to spy out Jazer, and they captured its villages and dispossessed the Amorites who were there.Then they turned and went up by the way of Bashan, and Og the king of Bashan went out against them with all his people, for battle at Edrei.But the Lord said to Moses,“ Do not fear him, for I have handed him over to you, and all his people and his land; and you shall do to him as you did to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.”So they killed him and his sons and all his people, until there was no survivor left; and they took possession of his land.

Genesis 36:20-43
These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. These are the chiefs descended from the Horites, the sons of Seir in the land of Edom.And the sons of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and Lotan’s sister was Timna.And these are the sons of Shobal: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.And these are the sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah— he is the Anah who found the hot springs in the wilderness when he was pasturing the donkeys of his father Zibeon.And these are the children of Anah: Dishon, and Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah.And these are the sons of Dishon: Hemdan, Eshban, Ithran, and Cheran.These are the sons of Ezer: Bilhan, Zaavan, and Akan.These are the sons of Dishan: Uz and Aran.These are the chiefs descended from the Horites: chief Lotan, chief Shobal, chief Zibeon, chief Anah,chief Dishon, chief Ezer, and chief Dishan. These are the chiefs descended from the Horites, according to their various chiefs in the land of Seir.Now these are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom before any king reigned over the sons of Israel.Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom, and the name of his city was Dinhabah.Then Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah became king in his place.Then Jobab died, and Husham of the land of the Temanites became king in his place.Then Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who defeated Midian in the field of Moab, became king in his place; and the name of his city was Avith.Then Hadad died, and Samlah of Masrekah became king in his place.Then Samlah died, and Shaul of Rehoboth on the Euphrates River became king in his place.Then Shaul died, and Baal hanan the son of Achbor became king in his place.Then Baal hanan the son of Achbor died, and Hadar became king in his place; and the name of his city was Pau; and his wife’s name was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, daughter of Mezahab.Now these are the names of the chiefs descended from Esau, according to their families and their localities, by their names: chief Timna, chief Alvah, chief Jetheth,chief Oholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon,chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar,chief Magdiel, and chief Iram. These are the chiefs of Edom( that is, Esau, the father of the Edomites), according to their settlements in the land of their possession.

Deuteronomy 2:32-3:11
“ Then Sihon came out with all his people to meet us in battle at Jahaz.And the Lord our God turned him over to us, and we defeated him with his sons and all his people.So we captured all his cities at that time and utterly destroyed the men, women, and children of every city. We left no survivor.We took only the animals as our plunder, and the spoils of the cities which we had captured.From Aroer which is on the edge of the Valley of Arnon and from the city which is in the valley, even to Gilead, there was no city that was too high for us; the Lord our God turned it all over to us.Only you did not go near the land of the sons of Ammon, all along the river Jabbok and the cities of the hill country, and wherever the Lord our God had commanded us to avoid.“ Then we turned and went up the road to Bashan, and Og, king of Bashan, came out with all his people to meet us in battle at Edrei.But the Lord said to me,‘ Do not fear him, for I have handed him and all his people and his land over to you; and you shall do to him just as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.’So the Lord our God also handed over to us Og, king of Bashan, with all his people, and we struck them until no survivor was left.We captured all his cities at that time; there was not a city which we did not take from them: sixty cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates, and bars, besides a great many unwalled towns.We utterly destroyed them, as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children of every city.But all the animals and the spoils of the cities we took as our plunder.“ So at that time we took the land from the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, from the Valley of Arnon to Mount Hermon( Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir):all the cities of the plateau, all Gilead, and all Bashan, as far as Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.( For only Og king of Bashan was left of the remnant of the Rephaim. Behold, his bed was a bed of iron; it is in Rabbah of the sons of Ammon. Its length was nine cubits, and its width four cubits by the usual cubit.)

The sons of Seir were Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan.The sons of Lotan were Hori and Homam; and Lotan’s sister was Timna.The sons of Shobal were Alian, Manahath, Ebal, Shephi, and Onam.

Now the tribal chiefs of Edom were chief Timna, chief Aliah, chief Jetheth,chief Oholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon,chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar,chief Magdiel, and chief Iram. These were the chiefs of Edom.
