Judges 11:17

Back to Verses

Then Israel sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, pass through thy land: but the king of Edom would not hearken thereto. And in like manner they sent unto the king of Moab: but he would not consent: and Israel abode in Kadesh.

Then, Israel asked the king of Edom if they could pass through his land, but he said no. They also asked the king of Moab, who also said no. So, Israel stayed in a place called Kadesh.
