And God will say to Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people: for he is praised. And Balaam will rise in the morning and will say to the leaders of Balak, Go to your land: for Jehovah refused to give me to go with you. And the leaders will rise and go to Balak, and say, Balaam refused to come with us, read more.
And Balak will add yet to send leaders, many and honorable, more than these. And they will go to Balaam, and say to him, Thus said Balak, son of Zippor, Now thou wilt not withhold from coming to me: For honoring, I will honor thee greatly, and all which thou shalt say to me I will do; and come, now, curse to me this people. And Balaam will answer, and say to the servants of Balak, If Balak will give to me his house full of silver and gold, I shall not be able to pass over the mouth of Jehovah my God to do little or great And now, sit ye down, now also in here this night, and I shall know what Jehovah will add to speak with me. And God will come to Balaam at night, and say to him, If the men have come to call to thee, rise up, go with them, and only the word which I shall speak to thee, thou shalt do it And Balaam will rise up in the morning, and saddle his ass, and go with the leaders of Moab. And the anger of God will kindle because he went; and the messenger of Jehovah will stand in the way, for an adversary to him: and he rode upon his ass, and his two young men with him.

And he will send messengers to Balaam, son of Beor, to Pethor, which is by the river of the land of the sons of his people, to call to him, saying, Behold, a people came forth out of Egypt: behold, it covered the eye of the earth, and it dwelt from before me. And now, come now, curse to me this people, for he is strong above me: perhaps I shall be able to strike upon him, and drive him out of the land, for I know whom thou shalt praise is praised, and whom thou shalt curse, shall be cursed.

And the ass will see me, and will turn before me this three beats: unless she turned from before me for now also I had slain thee, and preserved her alive. Verse ConceptsBalaams DonkeyGod KillingSeeing AngelsActing Three TimesGod Killing Individuals
