Canaanites Defeated at Hormah

1 The aking of Arad, the Canaanite, who dwelt in the South, heard that Israel was coming on the road to Atharim. Then he fought against Israel and took some of them prisoners.  
2 aSo Israel made a vow to the Lord, and said, “If You will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then bI will utterly destroy their cities.”  
3 And the Lord listened to the voice of Israel and delivered up the Canaanites, and they utterly destroyed them and their cities. So the name of that place was called1 Hormah.  

The Bronze Serpent

4 Then they journeyed from Mount Hor by the Way of the Red Sea, to ago around the land of Edom; and the soul of the people became very1 discouraged on the way.  
5 And the people aspoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and our soul1 loathes this worthless bread.”  
6 So athe Lord sent bfiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the people of Israel died.  
7 aTherefore the people came to Moses, and said, “We have bsinned, for we have spoken against the Lord and against you; cpray to the Lord that He take away the serpents from us.” So Moses prayed for the people.
