15And he said to Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering, and I will go yonder.
16And the Word from before the Lord met Bileam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Return to Balak, and thus speak.
17And he came to him, and he was standing by his burnt offering, and the nobles of Moab with him. And Balak said to him, What hath the Lord spoken?
18And he took up his parable, and said: Arise, Balak, and hear, Listen to my words, Bar Zippor:
19The word of Eloha is not as the words of men; The sons of men speak, but lie; Nor is it as the works of the children of flesh, Who decree to do, but repent, and change their counsels. What He hath said He will perform, And His every word is steadfast.
20Behold, I have received benedictions to bless Israel, And I may not turn my blessing from him.
21I have seen that in the house of Jakob The worshippers of idols are not, Nor in Israel the workers of the work of lies. The Word of the Lord their God is their helper, And the Shekinah of their King is among them.
