Judges 11:17

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.

KJV

Misitque nuntios ad regem Edom, dicens : Dimitte me ut transeam per terram tuam. Qui noluit acquiescere precibus ejus. Misit quoque ad regem Moab, qui et ipse transitum præbere contempsit. Mansit itaque in Cades,

Vulgate

καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰσραὴλ ἀγγέλους πρός βασιλέα Ἐδὼμ λέγων Παρελεύσομαι δὴ ἐν τῇ γῇ σου· καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσεν βασιλεύς Ἐδώμ· καὶ πρὸς βασιλέα Μωὰβ ἀπέστειλεν, καὶ οὐκ εὐδόκησεν. καὶ ἐκάθισεν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν Καδής,

LXX

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