Rotherham(i)
1 And the Canaanite, the king of Arad, who dwelt in the South, heard that Israel had entered by the way of Atharim,––so he made war with Israel, and took some of them captive.
2 Then Israel vowed vow unto Yahweh, and said,––If thou wilt, surely deliver up, this people into my hand, then will I utterly destroy their cities.
3 And Yahweh hearkened unto the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanite into his hand, so he utterly destroyed them, and their cities,––and called the name of the place Hormah [that is, "Utter Destruction"].
4 Then brake they up from Mount Hor, by way of the Red Sea, to go round the land of Edom,––and the soul of the people became impatient because of the way. 5 So then the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore, have ye brought us up out of Egypt, to die in the desert? for there is neither bread, nor water, and, our soul, doth loathe this contemptible bread! 6 And Yahweh sent among the people the poisonous serpents, and they bit the people,––and much people out of Israel died.
