Numbers 20:17-21

¹⁷We will pass through thy land: we will not go through the fields, nor through the vineyards, nor will we drink water out of thy cistern: we will go by the king's highway; we will not turn aside to the right hand or to the left, until we have passed thy borders.

¹⁸And Edom said to him, Thou shalt not pass through me, and if otherwise, I will go forth to meet thee in war.

¹⁹And the children of Israel say to him, We will pass by the mountain; and if I and my cattle drink of thy water, I will pay thee: but it is no matter of importance, we will go by the mountain.

²⁰And he said, Thou shalt not pass through me; and Edom went forth to meet him with a great host, and a mighty hand.

²¹So Edom refused to allow Israel to pass through his borders, and Israel turned away from him.
