Judges 11:14-18

New International Version

“This is what Jephthah says: Israel did not take the land of Moab^(A) or the land of the Ammonites.^{(B) 16} But when they came up out of Egypt, Israel went through the wilderness to the Red Sea^[a](C) and on to Kadesh.^{(D) 17} Then Israel sent messengers^(E) to the king of Edom, saying, ‘Give us permission to go through your country,’^(F) but the king of Edom would not listen. They sent also to the king of Moab,^(G) and he refused.^(H) So Israel stayed at Kadesh.

¹⁸ “Next they traveled through the wilderness, skirted the lands of Edom^(I) and Moab, passed along the eastern side^(J) of the country of Moab, and camped on the other side of the Arnon.^(K) They did not enter the territory of Moab, for the Arnon was its border.
