12. From thence they have journeyed, and encamp in the valley of Zared.
13. From thence they have journeyed, and encamp beyond Arnon, which [is] in the wilderness which is coming out of the border of the Amorite, for Arnon [is] the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorite;
14. therefore it is said in a book, `The wars of Jehovah,' --`Waheb in Suphah, And the brooks of Arnon;
15. And the spring of the brooks, Which turned aside to the dwelling of Ar, And hath leaned to the border of Moab.'
16. And from thence [they journeyed] to Beer; it [is] the well [concerning] which Jehovah said to Moses, `Gather the people, and I give to them--water.'
17. Then singeth Israel this song, concerning the well--they have answered to it:
18. `A well--digged it have princes, Prepared it have nobles of the people, With the lawgiver, with their staves.' And from the wilderness [they journeyed] to Mattanah,
19. and from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
20. and from Bamoth in the valley which [is] in the field of Moab [to] the top of Pisgah, which hath looked on the front of the wilderness.
21. And Israel sendeth messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorite, saying,
22. `Let me pass through thy land, we do not turn aside into a field, or into a vineyard, we do not drink waters of a well; in the king's way we go, till that we pass over thy border.'
23. And Sihon hath not suffered Israel to pass through his border, and Sihon gathereth all his people, and cometh out to meet Israel into the wilderness, and cometh in to Jahaz, and fighteth against Israel.
24. And Israel smiteth him by the mouth of the sword, and possesseth his land from Arnon unto Jabbok--unto the sons of Ammon; for the border of the sons of Ammon [is] strong.
