18 But Edom said to him, “You shall not pass through, lest I come out with the sword against you.”

18 And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee with the sword.

18 But the king of Edom said, “Stay out of my land, or I will meet you with an army!”

18 Then Edom said to him, “You shall not pass through my land, lest I come out against you with the sword.”

18 But the king of Edom answered: “You may not pass through here. If you try, I will come and meet you with swords.”

18 And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against thee.

18 But Edom said to him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee with the sword.

18 But the Edomites answered, “You may not pass through our country. If you try, we’ll come out and attack you.” 

18 But Edom answered him, “You must not travel through our land, or we will come out and confront you with the sword.”

18 But Edom said to him, “You shall not pass through, or we will come out with the sword against you.”

18 Then Edom said to him, “You will not pass through us lest we will go out to meet you with the sword.”

18 But the people of Edom answered,

“You can’t pass through here. If you try to, we’ll march out against you. We’ll attack you with our swords.”

18 Edom, however, said to him, “You shall not pass through us, or I will come out with the sword against you.”
