Judges 11:17 in Context — Judges 11
15 pour lui dire: Ainsi parle Jephthé: Israël ne s’est point emparé du pays de Moab, ni du pays des fils d’Ammon.
16 Car lorsqu’Israël est monté d’Égypte, il a marché dans le désert jusqu’à la mer Rouge, et il est arrivé à Kadès.
17 Alors Israël envoya des messagers au roi d’Édom, pour lui dire: Laisse-moi passer par ton pays. Mais le roi d’Édom n’y consentit pas. Il en envoya aussi au roi de Moab, qui refusa. Et Israël resta à Kadès.
18 Puis il marcha par le désert, tourna le pays d’Édom et le pays de Moab, et vint à l’orient du pays de Moab; ils campèrent au-delà de l’Arnon, sans entrer sur le territoire de Moab, car l’Arnon est la frontière de Moab.
19 Israël envoya des messagers à Sihon, roi des Amoréens, roi de Hesbon, et Israël lui dit: Laisse-nous passer par ton pays jusqu’au lieu où nous allons.
