Numbers 22:2 CPDV

¹  And they set out and made camp in the plains of Moab, across the Jordan, where Jericho is situated.

²  Then Balak, the son of Zippor, seeing all that Israel had done to the Amorite,

³  and that the Moabites had great fear of him, and that they were not able to bear his assault,

⁴  said to those greater by birth of Midian: 'So will this people wipe away all those who are dwelling within our borders, in the same way that the ox is accustomed to tear out grass, all the way to the roots.' At that time, he was king of Moab.
