Numbers 23:11-17

11Balak said to Balaam, “What have you done to me? I brought you to curse my enemies, but look, you’ve actually blessed them!”

12But in response he said, “Mustn’t I speak whatever Adonai puts into my mouth?”

13Then Balak said to him, “Come now with me to another place where you can see a part of them only, not all of them. Curse them for me from there.”

14He took him to Lookout Field on top of Pisgah. He built seven altars and offered a bull and a ram on each altar.

15“Stay here beside your offering,” he said to Balak, “while I am meeting over there.”

16Adonai met Balaam there and put a message into his mouth, and said, “Return to Balak and speak thus.”

17So he went to him, and behold, he and the princes of Moab were standing beside his offering. Balak asked him, “What did Adonai say?”
