Numbers 23:7-12 - Balaam's First Oracle
7 And he will take up his parable, and say, From Aram, Balak, king of Moab, will transfer me from the mountains of the east; Come curse to me Jacob and come and be angry at Israel 8 How shall I curse, God cursing not? And how shall I be angry, God not being angry? 9 From the head of the rocks I shall see him, and from the hills I shall look after him: behold, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations. 10 Who divided out the dust of Jacob and who numbered the fourth of Israel? My soul shall die the death of the just, and my latter state shall be as his.
11 And Balak will say to Balaam, What didst thou to me? To curse mine enemies I took thee, and behold, praising, thou didst praise.
12 And he will answer and say, What Jehovah shall put in my mouth shall I not watch, to speak?
