Numbers 22:6-11

6Come nowH6258 thereforeH6258, I pray thee, curseH779 me this peopleH5971; for they are too mightyH6099 for me: peradventure I shall prevailH3201, that we may smite them, and that I may driveH1644 them out of the landH776; for I knowH3045 that he whom thou blessest is blessedH1288, and he whom thou cursest is cursedH779.

7And the eldersH2205 of MoabH4124 and the eldersH2205 of MidianH4080 departed with the rewards of divinationH7081 in their handH3027; and they cameH935 unto BalaamH1109, and spake unto him the wordsH1697 of BalakH1111. 8And he saidH559 unto them, Lodge hereH6311 this nightH3915, and I will bringH7725 you wordH1697 again, as Jehovah shall speakH1696 unto me: and the princesH8269 of MoabH4124 abode with BalaamH1109. 9And GodH430 cameH935 unto BalaamH1109, and saidH559, What menH376 are these with thee? 10And BalaamH1109 saidH559 unto GodH430, BalakH1111 the sonH1121 of ZipporH6834, kingH4428 of MoabH4124, hath sentH7971 unto me, sayingH559, 11Behold, the peopleH5971 that is comeH3318 out of EgyptH4714, it covereth the face of the earthH776: nowH6258, comeH3318 curseH6895 me them; peradventure I shall be ableH3201 to fightH3898 against them, and shall driveH1644 them out.
