If, when the priest looketh on the breaking out, he see that it is no lower than the other skin and that there are black hairs therein, let him shut him up seven days.

And the lords of Moab rose up and went unto Balak and said, "Balaam would not come with us."

And Balak sent again a greater company of lords, and more honorable than they.

And they came to Balaam and told him, "Thus sayeth Balak, the son of Zippor: 'Oh, let nothing let thee to come unto me,

And the angel said unto Balaam, "Go with the men: but in any wise, what I say unto thee, that say." And Balaam went with the lords of Balak.

And when Balak heard that Balaam was come, he went out against him unto a city of Moab that stood in the border of Arnon, which was the utmost part of his country.

And Balak said unto Balaam, "Did I not send for thee, to call thee? Wherefore camest thou not unto me? Thinkest thou that I am not able to promote thee unto honour?"

And Balaam said unto Balak, "Lo, I am come unto thee. But I can say nothing at all, save what God putteth in my mouth that must I speak."

And the LORD put a saying in Balaam's mouth, and said, "Go again to Balak and say on this wise."

And he began his parable, and said, "Balak the king of Moab hath fetched me from Mesopotamia out of the mountains of the east saying, 'Come and curse me Jacob, come and defy me Israel.'

And Balak said unto Balaam, "What hast thou done unto me? I fetched thee to curse mine enemies: and behold, thou blessest them!"

And Balak said unto him, "Come, I pray thee, with me unto another place: whence thou shalt see them, and shalt see but the utmost part of them, and shalt not see them all and curse me them there."

And he said unto Balak, "Stand here, by thy sacrifice, while I go yonder."

And the LORD met Balaam and put words in his mouth, and said, "Go again unto Balak and thus say."

And when he came to him, behold, he stood by his sacrifice: and the lords of Moab with him. And Balak said unto him, "What sayeth the LORD?"

And Balaam answered and said unto Balak, "Told not I thee, saying, 'All that the LORD biddeth me, that I must do?'"

And Balak said unto Balaam, "Come, I pray thee; I will bring thee yet unto another place: so peradventure it shall please God that thou mayest curse them there."

And Balak brought Balaam unto the top of Peor, that boweth toward the wilderness.

And Balaam said unto Balak, "Make me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams."

And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.

And Balaam said unto Balak, "Told I not thy messengers which thou sentest unto me, saying,

'If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot pass the mouth of the LORD, to do either good or bad of mine own mind. What the LORD sayeth, that must I speak.'
