Numbers, Chapter 21, verses 1-5

¹ When the Canaanite, the king of Arad, who lived in the^aNegev, heard that Israel was coming by the way of^bAtharim, then he fought against Israel and took some of them captive. ² So Israel made a vow to the LORD and said, “If You will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will^cutterly destroy their cities.” ³ The LORD heard the voice of Israel and delivered up the Canaanites; then they^dutterly destroyed them and their cities. Thus the name of the place was called^eHormah.

⁴ Then they set out from Mount Hor by the way of the^fRed Sea, to go around the land of Edom; and the^gpeople became impatient because of the journey. ⁵ The people spoke against God and Moses, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no^hfood and no water, andⁱwe loathe this miserable food.”
