Numbers 21:14

ArnonSuphahWaheb

12 From there they set out and camped in the Valley of Zered.

13 From there they moved on and camped on the other side of the Arnon, in the wilderness that extends into the Amorite territory. Now the Arnon is the border between the Moabites and the Amorites.

Therefore it is stated in the Book of the Wars of the LORD: “Waheb in Suphah and the wadis of the Arnon,

15 even the slopes of the wadis that extend to the site of Ar and lie along the border of Moab.”

16 From there they went on to Beer, the well where the LORD said to Moses, “Gather the people so that I may give them water.”
