So Balaam got up in the morning, and said to the princes of Balak, "Go to your land, for the Lord has refused to permit me to go with you."

So the princes of Moab departed and went back to Balak and said, "Balaam refused to come with us."

Balak again sent princes, more numerous and more distinguished than the first.

So Balaam got up in the morning, saddled his donkey, and went with the princes of Moab.

But the angel of the Lord said to Balaam, "Go with the men, but you may only speak the word that I will speak to you." So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.

And Balak sacrificed bulls and sheep, and sent some to Balaam, and to the princes who were with him.

So he returned to him, and he was still standing by his burnt offering, he and all the princes of Moab.

When Balaam came to him, he was still standing by his burnt offering, along with the princes of Moab. And Balak said to him, "What has the Lord spoken?"
