Numbers 23:14-28

¹⁴And he brought him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.

¹⁵And he said to Balak, Stand here by thy burnt-offering, while I meet the LORD yonder.

¹⁶And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Go again to Balak, and say thus.

¹⁷And when he came to him, behold, he stood by his burnt-offering, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said to him, What hath the LORD spoken?

¹⁸And he took up his parable, and said, Rise, Balak, and hear; hearken to me, thou son of Zippor:

¹⁹God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it ? or hath he spoke, and shall he not make it good?

²⁰Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed, and I cannot reverse it.

²¹He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel; the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.

²²God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of a unicorn.

²³Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought!

²⁴Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he shall eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.

²⁵And Balak said to Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.

²⁶But Balaam answered and said to Balak, Did I not tell thee, saying, All that the LORD speaketh, that I must do?

²⁷And Balak said to Balaam, Come, I pray thee, I will bring thee to another place; perhaps it will please God that thou mayest from thence curse them for me.

²⁸And Balak brought Balaam to the top of Peor, that looketh towards Jeshimon.
