who forsaking the right way have erred, having followed the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness, and was rebuked for his iniquity; a dumb animal accustomed to a yoke (upon which he was seated), speaking with man's voice, hindered the madness of the prophet.

And Balaam answered and said unto the slaves of Balak, If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my God, to do anything small or great.

And Balak said unto Balaam, Did I not earnestly send unto thee to call thee? Why hast thou not come unto me? Am I not able indeed to promote thee to honour? And Balaam said unto Balak, Behold, I am come unto thee; may I now say something? The word that God puts in my mouth, that shall I speak.

Why should I curse one whom God has not cursed? And why should I denounce one whom the LORD has not denounced?

And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD has put in my mouth?

And Balaam replied unto Balak, Did I not declare also unto thy messengers which thou didst send unto me, saying, If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the commandment of the LORD, to do either good or bad of my own heart; but what the LORD saith that will I speak? Therefore, behold, I go now unto my people; come and I will indicate unto thee what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days.
