18 And Edom will say to him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest with the sword I shall come out to thy meeting.

19 And the sons of Israel will say to him, By the highway will we come up; and if we shall drink of thy waters, I and my cattle, I gave a price: only not speaking, I will pass through on my feet.

20 And he will say, Thou shalt not pass through. And Edom will come forth to his meeting with a heavy people, and with a strong hand.

21 And Edom will refuse to give to Israel to pass over by his boundary; and Israel will turn away from him.

22 And they will remove from Kadesh, and the sons of Israel, all the assembly will come to Mount Hor.

23 And Jehovah will say to Moses and to Aaron, in mount Hor, upon the boundary of the land of Edom, saying,

24 Aaron shall be gathered to his people; for he shall not come into the land which I gave to the sons of Israel, because that ye resisted my mouth at the Waters of Strife.

25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to mount Hor.

26 And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be gathered and die there.

27 And Moses will do as Jehovah commanded: and he will bring him up to mount Hor before the eyes of all the assembly.

28 And Moses will strip Aaron of his garments, and will put them upon Eleazar his son: and Aaron will die there in the head of the mountain: and Moses will come down, and Eleazar, from the mountain.

29 And all the assembly will see that Aaron died, and they will weep for Aaron thirty days, all the house of Israel.
