Numbers 22:8-14

8And he said to them, Lodge here this night, and I will bring you word again, according as Jehovah shall speak unto me. And the princes of Moab abode with Balaam.

9And 1God came to Balaam, and said, Who are these men with thee?

10And Balaam said to 2God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto me,

11Behold, a people is come out of Egypt, and it covers the face of the land. Now come, curse me them: perhaps I may be able to fight against them, and drive them out.

12And 3God said to Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people; for they are blessed.

13And Balaam rose up in the morning, and said to the princes of Balak, Go into your land; for Jehovah refuses to give me leave to go with you.

14And the princes of Moab rose up; and they went to Balak, and said, Balaam has refused to come with us.
