Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites lived in the valley. Tomorrow you will turn, and you will set out for the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea.”
Therefore they shall eat the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
The Amalekites dwell in the land of the Negev, and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites dwell in the mountains, and the Canaanites dwell by the sea and by the edge of the Jordan.”
The Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying:
And they said one to another, “Let us select a leader, and let us return to Egypt.”
But as for you, turn around, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea.”
for when Israel came up from Egypt, they went into the desert as far as the Red Sea and came to Kadesh.
