Numbers 21:14–16

¹⁴Therefore it is stated in the Book of the Wars of the LORD:

“Waheb in Suphah

and the wadis of the Arnon,

¹⁵even the slopes of the wadis

that extend to the site of Ar

and lie along the border of Moab.”

¹⁶From there they went on to Beer,^d the well where the LORD said to Moses, “Gather the people so that I may give them water.”
