11 And Balak said to Balaam: 'What is this that you are doing? I called for you, in order to curse my enemies, and to the contrary, you bless them.'
12 He answered him, 'How can I say anything other than what the Lord orders?'
13 Therefore, Balak said: 'Come with me to another place, from where you may see a portion of Israel, though you cannot see them all. Curse them from there.'
14 And when he had led him to a lofty place, on the top of mount Pisgah, Balaam built seven altars, and placing upon each a calf and a ram,
15 he said to Balak, 'Stand here next to your holocaust, while I continue on to meet him.'
