2 Kings 3:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ And he went and sent to Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me to battle against Moab?” And he answered, “I will go up. I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.”

⁸ Then he said, “What way shall we go up?” And he answered, “The way of the wilderness of Edom.”

⁹ So went the king of Israel and the king of Judah and the king of Edom. And after they had traveled on the way for seven days, they had no water for the army or for the cattle that followed them.
