20 Still he said: “You must not pass through.”+ With that Eʹdom+ came on out to encounter him with a great many people and a strong hand.

21 So Eʹdom refused to grant Israel to pass through his territory.+ Hence Israel turned away from him.+

4 While they continued trekking from Mount Hor+ by the way of the Red Sea to go around the land of Eʹdom,+ the soul of the people began tiring out because of the way.

18 When they walked on through the wilderness, they went their way around the land of Eʹdom+ and the land of Moʹab, so that they went toward the rising of the sun as respects the land of Moʹab*+ and took up camping in the region of the Arʹnon; and they did not come within the boundary of Moʹab,+ because Arʹnon was the boundary of Moʹab.+
