12But 1theseG3778, likeG5613 unreasoningG249 animalsG2226, 2bornG1080 as creaturesG5446 of instinctG5446 to be capturedG259 and killedG5356, revilingG987 whereG1722G3739 they haveG50 noG50 knowledgeG50, will in 3the destructionG5356 of thoseG3778 creatures alsoG2532 be destroyedG5351, 13suffering wrongG91 as 4the wagesG3408 of doingG93 wrongG93. They countG2233 it a pleasureG2237 to 5revelG5172 in the 6daytimeG2250. They are stainsG4696 and blemishesG3470, 7revelingG1792 in their 8deceptionsG539, as they 9carouseG4910 with you, 14havingG2192 eyesG3788 fullG3324 of adulteryG3428 that neverG180 ceaseG180 from sinG266, 10enticingG1185 11unstableG793 soulsG5590, havingG2192 a heartG2588 trainedG1128 in 12greedG4124, 13accursedG2671 childrenG5043; 15forsakingG2641 14the rightG2117 wayG3598, they have goneG4105 astrayG4105, having followedG1811 15the wayG3598 of BalaamG903, the son of BeorG961, whoG3739 lovedG25 16the wagesG3408 of unrighteousnessG93; 16but he receivedG2192 a rebukeG1649 for his ownG2398 transgressionG3892, 17for a muteG880 donkeyG5268, speakingG5350 with a voiceG5456 of a manG444, restrainedG2967 the madnessG3913 of the prophetG4396.
