14. Therefore it is said in the Book of the Wars of the LORD, What he did in the Red Sea, and in the brooks of Arnon,
15. And at the stream of the brooks that goes down to the dwelling of Ar, and lies upon the border of Moab.
16. And from there they went to Beer: that is the well of which the LORD spoke unto Moses,
17. Then Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing you unto it:
18. The princes dug the well, the nobles of the people dug it, by the direction of the lawgiver, with their staves. And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah:
19. And from Mattanah to Nahaliel: and from Nahaliel to Bamoth:
20. And from Bamoth in the valley that is in the country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks toward the wasteland.
21. And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
22. Let me pass through your 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 highway, until we are past your borders.
23. And Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his territory: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness: and he came to Jahaz, and fought against Israel.
