Numbers
Chapters 21:16-22
New International Version Anglicized
16From there they continued on to Beer, the well where the Lord said to Moses, ‘Gather the people together and I will give them water.’
17Then Israel sang this song:‘Spring up, O well!Sing about it,
18about the well that the princes dug,that the nobles of the people sank –the nobles with sceptres and staffs.’Then they went from the wilderness to Mattanah,
19from Mattanah to Nahaliel, from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
20and from Bamoth to the valley in Moab where the top of Pisgah overlooks the wasteland.
21Israel sent messengers to say to Sihon king of the Amorites:
22‘Let us pass through your country. We will not turn aside into any field or vineyard, or drink water from any well. We will travel along the King’s Highway until we have passed through your territory.’
