正月間，以色列全會眾到了尋的曠野；百姓住在加低斯。米利暗死在那裏，也葬在那裏。

摩西從加低斯差遣使者到以東王那裏，說：「你的弟兄以色列這樣說：『你知道我們所遭遇的一切困難。我們的祖先曾下到埃及，我們也在埃及住了很多年。然而，埃及人卻惡待我們和我們的祖先。我們哀求耶和華，他垂聽了我們的聲音，差遣使者把我們從埃及領出來。看哪，我們到了你邊界的加低斯城。求你讓我們穿越你的地。我們不走田間和葡萄園，也不喝井裏的水。我們只走王的大道，不偏左右，直到過了你的邊界。』」但是，以東對他說：「你不可從我這裏穿越！否則，我要帶刀出去攻擊你。」以色列人對他說：「我們只上大道。如果我和我的牲畜喝了你的水，我必付錢給你。我不求別的事，只求讓我步行過去。」以東說：「你不可經過！」他就率領一大羣軍隊，以強硬的手出來攻擊以色列。這樣，以東不肯讓以色列穿越他的境內，以色列就轉去，離開他了。

就如住在西珥的以掃子孫和住在亞珥的摩押人待我一樣，等我過了約旦河，進入耶和華－我們神所賜給我們的地。』

你要吩咐百姓說：你們弟兄以掃的子孫住在西珥，你們要經過他們的邊界。他們必懼怕你們，但你們要分外謹慎。不可向他們挑戰；他們的地，連腳掌可踏之處，我都不給你們，因我已將西珥山賜給以掃為業。你們要用錢向他們買糧吃，也要用錢向他們買水喝。因為耶和華－你的神在你手裏所做的一切事上已賜福給你。你走這大曠野，他都知道。這四十年，耶和華－你的神與你同在，因此你一無所缺。』「於是，我們經過我們弟兄以掃子孫所住的西珥，從亞拉巴的路，經過以拉他、以旬．迦別，轉向摩押曠野的路去。耶和華對我說：『不可侵犯摩押，也不可向他們挑戰。他們的地，我不賜給你為業，因我已將亞珥賜給羅得的子孫為業。』

那時，摩押王西撥的兒子巴勒起來攻擊以色列人，派人去召比珥的兒子巴蘭來詛咒你們。
