Numbers 20:15-17

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁵ “how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we dwelt in Egypt a long time, where the Egyptians afflicted us and our fathers.

¹⁶ “But when we cried to the LORD, He heard our voice and sent an angel, and has brought us out of Egypt. And behold, we are in the city, Kadesh, in your utmost border.

¹⁷ “Please let us pass through your country. We will not go through the fields or the vineyards, nor will we drink from the water of the wells. We will go by the King’s Way and turn neither to the right hand nor to the left, until we are past your borders.’”
