Numbers 23 (kjv)

And Balaam^H1109 said^H559 unto Balak^H1111, Build^H1129 me here seven^H7651 altars^H4196, and prepare^H3559 me here seven^H7651 oxen^H6499 and seven^H7651 rams^H352.²And Balak^H1111 did^H6213 as Balaam^H1109 had spoken^H1696; and Balak^H1111 and Balaam^H1109 offered^H5927 on every altar^H4196 a bullock^H6499 and a ram^H352.³And Balaam^H1109 said^H559 unto Balak^H1111, Stand^H3320 by thy burnt offering^H5930, and I will go^H3212: peradventure the LORD^H3068 will come^H7136 to meet^H7125 me: and whatsoever^H1697 he sheweth^H7200 me I will tell^H5046 thee. And he went^H3212 to an high place^H8205.⁴And God^H430 met^H7136 Balaam^H1109: and he said^H559 unto him, I have prepared^H6186 seven^H7651 altars^H4196, and I have offered^H5927 upon every altar^H4196 a bullock^H6499 and a ram^H352.⁵And the LORD^H3068 put^H7760 a word^H1697 in Balaam's^H1109 mouth^H6310, and said^H559, Return^H7725 unto Balak^H1111, and thus thou shalt speak^H1696.⁶And he returned^H7725 unto him, and, lo, he stood^H5324 by his burnt sacrifice^H5930, he, and all the princes^H8269 of Moab^H4124.⁷And he took up^H5375 his parable^H4912, and said^H559, Balak^H1111 the king^H4428 of Moab^H4124 hath brought^H5148 me from Aram^H758, out of the mountains^H2042 of the east^H6924, saying, Come^H3212, curse^H779 me Jacob^H3290, and come^H3212, defy^H2194 Israel^H3478.⁸How^H4100 shall I curse^H5344, whom God^H410 hath not cursed^H6895? or how shall I defy^H2194, whom the LORD^H3068 hath not defied^H2194?⁹For from the top^H7218 of the rocks^H6697 I see^H7200 him, and from the hills^H1389 I behold^H7789 him: lo, the people^H5971 shall dwell^H7931 alone^H910, and shall not be reckoned^H2803 among the nations^H1471.¹⁰Who can count^H4487 the dust^H6083 of Jacob^H3290, and the number^H4557 of the fourth^H7255 part of Israel^H3478? Let me die^{H4191 H5315} the death^H4194 of the righteous^H3477, and let my last^H319 end be like his!¹¹And Balak^H1111 said^H559 unto Balaam^H1109, What hast thou done^H6213 unto me? I took^H3947 thee to curse^H6895 mine enemies^H341, and, behold, thou hast blessed^H1288 them altogether^H1288.¹²And he answered^H6030 and said^H559, Must I not take heed^H8104 to speak^H1696 that which the LORD^H3068 hath put^H7760 in my mouth^H6310?¹³And Balak^H1111 said^H559 unto him, Come^H3212, I pray thee, with me unto another^H312 place^H4725, from whence thou mayest see^H7200 them: thou shalt see^H7200 but^H657 the utmost^H7097 part of them, and shalt not see^H7200 them all: and curse^H6895 me them from thence.¹⁴And he brought^H3947 him into the field^H7704 of Zophim^{H6839 H6822}, to the top^H7218 of Pisgah^H6449, and built^H1129 seven^H7651 altars^H4196, and offered^H5927 a bullock^H6499 and a ram^H352 on every altar^H4196.¹⁵And he said^H559 unto Balak^H1111, Stand^H3320 here^H3541 by thy burnt offering^H5930, while I meet^H7136 the LORD yonder^H3541.¹⁶And the LORD^H3068 met^H7136 Balaam^H1109, and put^H7760 a word^H1697 in his mouth^H6310, and said^H559, Go again^H7725 unto Balak^H1111, and say^H1696 thus.¹⁷And when he came^H935 to him, behold, he stood^H5324 by his burnt offering^H5930, and the princes^H8269 of Moab^H4124 with him. And Balak^H1111 said^H559 unto him, What hath the LORD^H3068 spoken^H1696?¹⁸And he took up^H5375 his parable^H4912, and said^H559, Rise up^H6965, Balak^H1111, and hear^H8085; hearken^H238 unto me, thou son^H1121 of Zippor^H6834:¹⁹God^H410 is not a man^H376, that he should lie^H3576; neither the son^H1121 of man^H120, that he should repent^H5162: hath he said^H559, and shall he not do^H6213 it? or hath he spoken^H1696, and shall he not make it good^H6965?²⁰Behold, I have received^H3947 commandment to bless^H1288: and he hath blessed^H1288; and I cannot reverse^H7725 it.²¹He hath not beheld^H5027 iniquity^H205 in Jacob^H3290, neither hath he seen^H7200 perverseness^H5999 in Israel^H3478: the LORD^H3068 his God^H430 is with him, and the shout^H8643 of a king^H4428 is among them.²²God^H410 brought them out^H3318 of Egypt^H4714; he hath as it were the strength^H8443 of an unicorn^H7214.²³Surely there is no enchantment^H5173 against Jacob^H3290, neither is there any divination^H7081 against Israel^H3478: according to this time^H6256 it shall be said^H559 of Jacob^H3290 and of Israel^H3478, What hath God^H410 wrought^H6466 !²⁴Behold, the people^H5971 shall rise up^H6965 as a great lion^H3833, and lift up^H5375 himself as a young lion^H738: he shall not lie down^H7901 until he eat^H398 of the prey^H2964, and drink^H8354 the blood^H1818 of the slain^H2491.²⁵And Balak^H1111 said^H559 unto Balaam^H1109, Neither curse^H5344 them at all^H6895, nor bless^H1288 them at all^H1288.²⁶But Balaam^H1109 answered^H6030 and said^H559 unto Balak^H1111, Told^H1696 not I thee, saying^H559, All that the LORD^H3068 speaketh^H1696, that I must do^H6213?²⁷And Balak^H1111 said^H559 unto Balaam^H1109, Come^H3212, I pray thee, I will bring^H3947 thee unto another^H312 place^H4725; peradventure it will please^{H3474 H5869} God^H430 that thou mayest curse^H6895 me them from thence.²⁸And Balak^H1111 brought^H3947 Balaam^H1109 unto the top^H7218 of Peor^H6465, that looketh^H8259 toward^H6440 Jeshimon^H3452.²⁹And Balaam^H1109 said^H559 unto Balak^H1111, Build^H1129 me here seven^H7651 altars^H4196, and prepare^H3559 me here seven^H7651 bullocks^H6499 and seven^H7651 rams^H352.³⁰And Balak^H1111 did^H6213 as Balaam^H1109 had said^H559, and offered^H5927 a bullock^H6499 and a ram^H352 on every altar^H4196.
