And thus Edom denied to give
Israel passage thorow his country; And Israel turned away from
him. And the children of Israel removed from Cades and went unto
mount Hor with all the congregation. And the LORD spake unto Moses
and Aaron in mount Hor, hard upon the coasts of the land of Edom
saying: let Aaron be put unto his people, for he shall not come
into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel:
because ye disobeyed my mouth at the water of strife. Take Aaron
and Eleazer his son, and bring them up into mount Hor, and strip
Aaron out of his vestments and put them upon Eleazer his son, and
let Aaron be put unto his people and die there. And Moses did as
the LORD commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight
of all the multitude. And Moses took off Aaron's clothes and put
them upon Eleazer his son, and Aaron died there in the top of the
mount. And Moses and Eleazer came down out of the mount. And all
the house of Israel mourned for Aaron thirty days
Chapter .xxj.
And when king Arad the Cananite which dwelt in the south parts,
heard tell that Israel came by the way that the spies had found
out: he came and fought with Israel and took some of them
prisoners. Then Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD and said: If thou
wilt give this people into our hands, we will destroy their
cities.
