Numbers 20:18-21

Numbers 20:18-21

[18] And Edom  said  unto him, Thou shalt not pass  by me, lest I come out  against  thee with the sword.  [19] And the children  of Israel  said  unto him, We will go  by the high way:  and if I and my cattle  drink  of thy water,  then I will pay  for it: I will only, without doing any thing  else, go through  on my feet.  [20] And he said,  Thou shalt not go through.  And Edom  came out  against  him with much  people,  and with a strong  hand.  [21] Thus Edom  refused  to give  Israel  passage  through his border:  wherefore Israel  turned away  from him.
