04:020:016 And when we cried unto the LORD, he heard our voice, and sent
an angel, and hath brought us forth out of Egypt: and, behold,
we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of thy border:
04:020:017 Let us pass, I pray thee, through thy country: we will not
pass through the fields, or through the vineyards, neither
will we drink of the water of the wells: we will go by the
king's high way, we will not turn to the right hand nor to the
left, until we have passed thy borders.
04:020:018 And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come
out against thee with the sword.
04:020:019 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 anything else, go
through on my feet.
04:020:020 And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out
against him with much people, and with a strong hand.
04:020:021 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border:
wherefore Israel turned away from him.
04:020:022 And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation,
journeyed from Kadesh, and came unto mount Hor.
04:020:023 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the
coast of the land of Edom, saying,
04:020:024 Aaron shall be gathered unto his people: for he shall not
enter into the land which I have given unto the children of
Israel, because ye rebelled against my word at the water of
Meribah.
04:020:025 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount
Hor:
04:020:026 And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his
son: and Aaron shall be gathered unto his people, and shall
die there.
04:020:027 And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into
mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
04:020:028 And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon
Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there in the top of the mount:
and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount.
04:020:029 And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they
mourned for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
04:021:001 And when king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south,
heard tell that Israel came by the way of the spies; then he
fought against Israel, and took some of them prisoners.
04:021:002 And Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou wilt
indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly
destroy their cities.
04:021:003 And the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered
up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their
cities: and he called the name of the place Hormah.
