Israel sent messengers to say to Sihon king of the Amorites:

Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,

The Israelites sent ambassadors to King Sihon of the Amorites with this message:

Israel sent messengers to say to King Sihon of the Amorites,

Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon, king of the Amorites, saying,

And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,

Then Israel sent messengers to King Sihon of the Amorites, saying,

Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,

“ Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon. He was the king of the Amorites. He ruled in Heshbon. They said to him,‘ Let us pass through your country to our own land.’But Sihon didn’t trust Israel to pass through his territory. Instead, he gathered all his troops together. They camped at Jahaz. And they fought against Israel.“ Then the Lord, the God of Israel, handed Sihon and his whole army over to Israel. Israel won the battle over them. Amorites were living in the country at that time. And Israel took over all their land.

I sent messengers from the Desert of Kedemoth. I told them to go to Sihon, the king of Heshbon. They offered him peace. They said,“ Let us pass through your country. We’ll stay on the main road. We won’t turn off it to one side or the other.We’ll pay you the right amount of silver for food to eat and water to drink. Just let us walk through your country.

Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom. The messengers said,“ The nation of Israel is your brother. They say,‘ You know about all the hard times we’ve had.Long ago our people went down into Egypt. We lived there for many years. The Egyptians treated us and our people badly.But we cried out to the Lord. He heard our cry. He sent an angel and brought us out of Egypt.“‘ Now here we are at the town of Kadesh. It’s on the edge of your territory.Please let us pass through your country. We won’t go through any field or vineyard. We won’t drink water from any well. We’ll travel along the King’s Highway. We won’t turn to the right or the left. We’ll just go straight through your territory.’ ”But the people of Edom answered,“ We won’t let you pass through here. If you try to, we’ll march out against you. We’ll attack you with our swords.”The Israelites replied,“ We’ll go along the main road. We and our livestock won’t drink any of your water. If we do, we’ll pay for it. We only want to walk through your country. That’s all we ask.”
