Numbers 21:21-23

Jubilee Bible 2000

²¹ ¶ And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,

²² Let me pass through thy land; we will not turn into the fields or into the vineyards; we will not drink of the waters of the wells; but we will go along by the king’s high way until we are past thy borders.

²³ But Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his border; instead Sihon gathered all his people together and went out against Israel into the wilderness; and he came to Jahaz and fought against Israel.
