18. And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass through me, lest I come out against thee with the cherev.
19. And the Bnei Yisroel said unto him, We will go by the main road; and if I and my livestock drink of thy mayim, then I will pay for it; I will only, without doing anything else, pass through on my feet.
20. And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out against him with a large army, and with a yad chazakah.
21. Thus Edom refused to give Yisroel passage through his border; wherefore Yisroel turned away from him.
22. And the Bnei Yisroel, even Kol HaEdah, journeyed from Kadesh, and came unto Mt Hor.
23. And Hashem spoke unto Moshe and Aharon in Mt Hor, by the border of Eretz Edom, saying,
24. Aharon shall be gathered unto his people; for he shall not enter into HaAretz which I have given unto the Bnei Yisroel, because ye rebelled against My word at the Waters of Merivah.
25. Take Aharon and Eleazar bno, and bring them up unto Mt Hor;
26. And strip Aharon of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar bno; and Aharon shall be gathered unto his people, and shall die there.
27. And Moshe did as Hashem commanded; and they went up into Mt Hor in the sight of Kol HaEdah.
28. And Moshe stripped Aharon of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar bno; and Aharon died there on the top of the mount; and Moshe and Eleazar came down from the mount.
29. And when Kol HaEdah saw that Aharon was dead, they mourned for Aharon shloshim yom, even Kol Bais Yisroel.
