2 Kings 3:8-10

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁸ Then he asked, ‘By which way shall we march?’ Jehoram answered, ‘By the way of the wilderness of Edom.’

⁹ So the king of Israel, the king of Judah, and the king of Edom set out; and when they had made a roundabout march of seven days, there was no water for the army or for the animals that were with them. ¹⁰ Then the king of Israel said, ‘Alas! The Lord has summoned us, three kings, only to be handed over to Moab.’
