Numbers 22:5-7
5he sentH7971 messengersH4397 to summonH413 BalaamH1109 sonH1121 of BeorH1160 at PethorH6604, whichH834 is byH5921 the EuphratesH51041 in the landH776 of his peopleH1121H5971.
“BeholdH2009, a peopleH5971 has come outH3318 of EgyptH4714,” said BalakH7121. “They coverH3680 the faceH5869 of the landH776H1931 and have settledH3427 next to meH4136. 6So pleaseH4994 comeH1980 nowH6258 and put a curseH779 on thisH2088 peopleH5971, becauseH3588 theyH1931 are too mightyH6099 for meH4480. Perhaps I mayH194 be ableH3201 to defeatH5221 them and drive them outH1644 ofH4480 the landH776; forH3588 I knowH3045 that thoseH834 you blessH1288 are blessedH1288, and thoseH834 you curseH779 are cursedH779.”
7The eldersH2205 of MoabH4124H2205 and MidianH4080 departedH1980 with the fees for divinationH7081 in handH3027. They cameH935 toH413 BalaamH1109 and relayedH1696 to himH413 the wordsH1697 of BalakH1111.
