Numbers 22:36-40

36When Balak heard that Balaam was coming, he went out to meet him at the Moabite town on the Arnon border, at the edge of his territory.

37Balak said to Balaam, “Did I not send you an urgent summons? Why didn’t you come to me? Am I really not able to reward you?”

38“Well, I have come to you now,” Balaam replied. “But I can’t say whatever I please. I must speak only what God puts in my mouth.”

39Then Balaam went with Balak to Kiriath Huzoth.

40Balak sacrificed cattle and sheep, and gave some to Balaam and the officials who were with him.
