Numbers 22:9-11

9Then God came to Balaam and he asked, ‘Who are these men who are staying with you?’

10Balaam said to God, ‘Zippor's son Balak, the king of Moab, has sent a message to me.

11He said, “A big group of people has come from Egypt and they cover all the ground. So please come and curse them for me. Then perhaps I will be able to fight them and send them away.” ’
