Judges 11:18-20
Revised Standard Version
18 Then they journeyed through the wilderness, and went around the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and arrived on the east side of the land of Moab, and camped on the other side of the Arnon; but they did not enter the territory of Moab, for the Arnon was the boundary of Moab. 19 Israel then sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, king of Heshbon; and Israel said to him, ‘Let us pass, we pray, through your land to our country.’ 20 But Sihon did not trust Israel to pass through his territory; so Sihon gathered all his people together, and encamped at Jahaz, and fought with Israel.

18 “Next they traveled through the wilderness, skirted the lands of Edom(A) and Moab, passed along the eastern side(B) of the country of Moab, and camped on the other side of the Arnon.(C) They did not enter the territory of Moab, for the Arnon was its border.
19 “Then Israel sent messengers(D) to Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon,(E) and said to him, ‘Let us pass through your country to our own place.’(F) 20 Sihon, however, did not trust Israel[a] to pass through his territory. He mustered all his troops and encamped at Jahaz and fought with Israel.(G)
