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.
Los israelitas le dijeron: 'Iremos por el camino principal, y si mi pueblo y nuestro ganado beben de tu agua, te pagaremos por ella. Solo queremos pasar a pie, no haremos nada más.'
Los israelitas prometieron pagar por cualquier agua que usaran y solo pasar por el territorio sin causar problemas.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This takes place during Israel's 40-year wilderness journey as they approached the Promised Land. They were asking permission from the king of Edom (their distant relatives, descendants of Esau) to pass through Edomite territory. Despite these reasonable assurances, the Edomites would refuse passage and force Israel to take a longer route around their land.
