4 And God met Balaam: and he said to him, I have prepared seven altars, and I have offered upon [every] altar a bullock and a ram.
5 And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return to Balak, and thus thou shalt speak.
6 And he returned to him and lo, he stood by his burnt-sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab.
7 And he took up his parable, and said, Balak the king of Moab hath brought me from Aram, out of the mountains of the east, [saying], Come, curse Jacob for me, and come, defy Israel.
8 How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defy, [whom] the LORD hath not defied?
