3 Balaam said to Balak, Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go: perhaps Yahweh will come to meet me; and whatever he shows me I will tell you. He went to a bare height.
4 God met Balaam: and he said to him, I have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered up a bull and a ram on every altar.
5 Yahweh put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak.
6 He returned to him, and, behold, he was standing by his burnt-offering, he, and all the princes of Moab.
7 He took up his parable, and said, From Aram has Balak brought me, The king of Moab from the mountains of the East: Come, curse me Jacob, Come, defy Israel.
