Numbers 21:22

21:22 “Let us ¹  pass through your land; ²  we will not turn aside into the fields or into the vineyards, nor will we drink water from any well, but we will go along the King’s Highway until we pass your borders.”

Numbers 22:26

22:26 Then the angel of the Lord went farther, and stood in a narrow place, where there was no way to turn either to the right or to the left.

[21:22]  ¹ tn The Hebrew text uses the singular in these verses to match the reference to “Israel.”

[21:22]  ² tc Smr has “by the King’s way I will go. I will not turn aside to the right or the left.”
