Объяснение для детей
Imagine you're on a long trip with your family and need to pass through your neighbor's yard. You ask nicely if you can walk on the sidewalk without stepping on their flowers or playing in their garden. That's what the Israelites are doing here, but on a much bigger scale.

This verse is part of the book of Numbers, written by Moses around 1400 BC. It describes the Israelites' journey after they left Egypt and are now trying to enter the Promised Land. The Edomites, descendants of Esau, are their neighbors, and the culture at the time involved respecting boundaries and property.
