And the sons of Israel brake up, - and encamped in Oboth.

And they brake up from Oboth, - and encamped in Ije-Abarim, in the desert which is over against Moab, towards the rising of the sun.

From thence, brake they up, - and encamped in the ravine of Zered.

From thence, brake they up, and encamped on the other side of Arnon which is in the desert, that cometh forth out of the boundary of the Amorites, - for, Arnon, is the boundary of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.

For this cause is it said, in the Book of the Wars of Yahweh, - …Waheb with a hurricane, And the ravines of Arnon;

And the bottom of the ravines, that extendeth toward the dwelling of Ar, - And adjoineth to the boundary of Moab,

And from thence, towards Beer, - the same, is the well whereof Yahweh said unto Moses, Gather together the people, that I may give them water.

Then, sang Israel this song, - Spring thou up, O well! Respond ye thereunto;

A well! - princes digged it, Nobles of the people, delved it, With a sceptre, With their staves. And, from the desert, to Mattanah;

and from Mattanah, to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel, to Bamoth;

and, from Bamoth of the valley, which is in the field-country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, - which over-looketh Jeshimon.
