Numbers 20:18-24

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.

²²And they departed from Cades; and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Or.

²³And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in mount Or, on the borders of the land of Edom, saying,

²⁴Let Aaron be added to his people; for ye shall certainly not go into the land which I have given the children of Israel, because ye provoked me at the water of strife.
