Numbers 22:36-40

36When Balak heard that Balaam had come, he went out to greet him at the Moabite city on the border of the Arnon, the frontier of the territory.

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

38“Look, I have come to you now!” Balaam said to Balak. “Can I just say anything? I must speak only the message which God puts into my mouth.”

39Then Balaam went with Balak to Kiriath-huzoth.

40Balak sacrificed cattle and sheep and sent some to Balaam and the princes who were with him.
