Moab and Moabites

Moabites is the term for the inhabitants of the land of Moab. Their territory lay between the Rivers Arnon and Zered, in the west of present-day Jordan. They were closely related to the Israelites. Their language differed little from Hebrew and their conception of their tribal god Chemosh, is in some regards reminiscent of ancient Israelite religion.
 Though they were brother peoples, the Moabites regularly came into conflict with the Israelites. That is why they have a poor reputation in the Bible. Genesis 19:30-38 tells us that their ancestor Moab was conceived by Lot with one of his daughters.
