2 Kings 3:8 CPDV

⁶  Therefore, king Joram departed on that day from Samaria, and he took a count of all of Israel.

⁷  And he sent to Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, saying: 'The king of Moab has withdrawn from me. Come to battle with me against him.' And he responded: 'I will go up. What is mine, is yours. My people are your people. And my horses are your horses.'

⁸  And he said, 'Along which way shall we ascend?' So he responded, 'Along the desert of Idumea.'

⁹  Therefore, the king of Israel, and the king of Judah, and the king of Idumea, traveled, and they went by a circuitous path for seven days. But there was no water for the army or for the beasts of burden which were following them.

¹⁰  And the king of Israel said: 'Alas, alas, alas! The Lord has gathered we three kings, so that he might deliver us into the hands of Moab.'
