Numbers 22:15-22
15And BalakH1111 sentH7971 yet againH5750 princesH8269, moreH5750, and moreH5750 honourable thanH7227 they.
16And they cameH935 to BalaamH1109, and saidH559 to him, ThusH3541 saith BalakH1111 the sonH1121 of ZipporH6834, LetH4994 nothingH408, I prayH4994 thee, hinderH4513 thee from comingH935 unto meH413:
17for I will promoteH6213 thee unto veryH3966 greatH3966 honour, and whatsoeverH3605 thou sayest unto meH413 I will doH6213: comeH4994 therefore, I prayH4994 thee, curseH6895 meH413 this peopleH5971.
18And BalaamH1109 answeredH559 and saidH559 unto the servantsH5650 of BalakH1111, IfH518 BalakH1111 would giveH5414 meH413 his houseH1004 fullH4393 of silverH3701 and goldH2091, I cannotH3808 goH5674 beyondH413 the wordH6310 of the LORDH3068 my GodH430, to doH6213 lessH6996 or moreH3808.
19NowH6258 therefore, I prayH4994 youH859, tarry ye also hereH2088 this nightH3915, that I may knowH3045 whatH4100 the LORDH3068 will speakH1696 unto meH4994 moreH3254.
20And GodH430 cameH935 unto BalaamH1109 at nightH3915, and saidH559 unto him, IfH518 the menH376 be comeH935 to callH7121 thee, riseH6965 upH6965, goH935 with them; but onlyH389 the wordH1697 whichH834 I speakH1696 unto thee, that shalt thou doH6213.
21And BalaamH1109 roseH6965 upH6965 in the morningH1242, and saddledH2280 his ass, and wentH6965 with the princesH8269 of MoabH4124.
22And God’sH430 angerH639 was kindledH2734 becauseH3588 he wentH1980: and the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 placedH7392 himselfH1931 in the wayH1870 for an adversaryH7854 againstH5921 him. NowH3588 he was ridingH7392 uponH5921 his ass, and his twoH8147 servantsH5288 were with him.
