- 我們哀求耶和華的時候、他聽了我們的聲音、差遣使者把我們從埃及領出來、這事你都知道.如今、我們在你邊界上的城加低斯。
- 求你容我們從你的地經過、我們不走田間和葡萄園、也不喝井裡的水、只走大道〔原文作王道〕、不偏左右、直到過了你的境界。
- 以東王說、你不可從我的地經過、免得我帶刀出去攻擊你。
- 以色列人說、我們要走大道上去、我們和牲畜若喝你的水、必給你價值、不求別的、只求你容我們步行過去。
- 以東王說、你們不可經過.就率領許多人出來、要用強硬的手攻擊以色列人。

- And when we cried unto the LORD, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and hath brought us forth out of Egypt: and, behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of thy border:
- Let us pass, I pray thee, through thy country: we will not pass through the fields, or through the vineyards, neither will we drink of the water of the wells: we will go by the king's high way, we will not turn to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed thy borders.
- And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee with the sword.
- And the children of Israel said unto him, We will go by the high way: and if I and my cattle drink of thy water, then I will pay for it: I will only, without doing anything else, go through on my feet.
- And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand.
