Numbers 22:15-18
15Then BalakH1111 sentH7971 representativesH8269 onceH5750 againH3254, moreH4480 numerousH7227 and moreH4480 distinguishedH3513 thanH4480 1the previousH428.
16They cameH935 to BalaamH1109 and saidH559 to him, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 BalakH1111 the sonH1121 of ZipporH6834 saysH559: ‘I begH4994 you, let nothingH408 keepH4513 you fromH4513H4480 comingH1980 to me;
17for I will indeedH3513 honorH3513 you richlyH3966, and I will doH6213 whateverH3605H834 you tellH559 me. 2PleaseH4994 comeH1980 then, curseH6895 thisH2088 peopleH5971 for me.’”
18But BalaamH1109 repliedH6030 to the servantsH5650 of BalakH1111, “3Even ifH518 BalakH1111 were to giveH5414 me his houseH1004 fullH4393 of silverH3701 and goldH2091, I couldH3201 not doH6213 anything, either smallH6996 orH176 greatH1419, contraryH5674 to the 4commandH6310 of the LordH3068 my GodH430.
