LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁴ And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom: So says your brother Israel, You surely have known all the travail which has found us; ¹⁵ that our fathers went down to Egypt, and we lived in Egypt many days, and the Egyptians did evil to us and to our fathers. ¹⁶ And we cried to Jehovah, and He heard our voice, and sent a messenger, and is bringing us out of Egypt; and, behold, we are in Kadesh, a city on the edge of your border. ¹⁷ Please let us pass over, through your land; we shall not pass over through a field, nor through a vineyard, nor shall we drink water of a well; we shall go along the king's highway. We will not turn aside to the right hand or to the left, until we have passed your border. ¹⁸ And Edom said to him, You shall not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against you. ¹⁹ And the sons of Israel said to him, We shall go in the highway; and if we drink of your waters, our cattle and us, then I shall give their price. Only let me pass through on my feet; there shall be no harm.
