14 And Mosheh sends angels from Qadesh to the sovereign of Edom, Thus says your brother Yisra El, You know all the travail that found us:
15 how our fathers descend into Misrayim and settle in Misrayim many days; and the Misrayim vilify us and our fathers:
16 and when we cry to Yah Veh, he hears our voice and sends an angel and brings us from Misrayim: and behold, we are in Qadesh, a city in the end of your border:
17 Let us pass, I beseech you, through your land: we neither pass through the fields or through the vineyards, nor drink of the water of the wells: we go by the way of the sovereign; we deviate neither to the right nor to the left until we pass your borders.
18 And Edom says to him, You pass not by me, lest I confront you with the sword.
19 And the sons of Yisra El say to him, We ascend by the high way: and if I and my chattel drink of your water, then I give their price: I only, without a word, pass through on my feet.
