Bamidbar 20:17-19

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹⁷ Let us pass, please, through thy country; we will not pass through the fields, or through the kerem (vineyards), neither will we drink of the mayim of the wells; we will go by the Derech HaMelech; we will not turn to the right hand nor to the left until we have passed through thy territory.

¹⁸ And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass through me, lest I come out against thee with the cherev.

¹⁹ And the Bnei Yisroel said unto him, We will go by the main road; and if I and my livestock drink of thy mayim, then I will pay for it; I will only, without doing anything else, pass through on my feet.
