16 And from thence they went to Beer: that is the well whereof the Lord spake unto Moses, Gather the people together, and I will give them water.
17 Then Israel sang this song,Spring up, O well;sing ye unto it:
18 the princes digged the well,the nobles of the people digged it,by the direction of the lawgiver, with their staves.And from the wilderness they went to Matta´nah:
19 and from Matta´nah to Naha´li-el: and from Naha´li-el to Bamoth:
20 and from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looketh toward Jeshi´mon.
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 well: but we will go along by the king's high way, until we be past thy borders.
