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 Kadesh; and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Hor.
23And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor, 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.
