Numbers 20:19-21

¹⁹Then the people of Israel said to him, “We will go along the highway. If we or our livestock drink your water, we will pay for it. Just let us walk through on foot, without doing anything else.”

²⁰But the king of Edom replied, “You may not pass through.” So the king of Edom came against Israel with a strong hand with many soldiers.

²¹The king of Edom refused to allow Israel to cross over their border. Because of this, Israel turned away from the land of Edom.
