H1121
And the children
H3478
of Israel
H5265
journeyed,
H2583
and encamped
H6160
in the plains
H4124
of Moab
H5676
beyond
H3383
the Jordan
H3405
at Jericho.
2
H1111
And Balak
H1121
the son
H6834
of Zippor
H7200
saw
H3478
all that Israel
H6213
had done
H567
to the Amorites.
3
H4124
And Moab
H3966
was sore
H1481
afraid
H6440
of
H5971
the people,
H7227
because they were many:
H4124
and Moab
H6973
was distressed
H6440
because of
H1121
the children
H3478
of Israel.
4
H4124
And Moab
H559
said
H2205
unto the elders
H4080
of Midian,
H6951
Now will this multitude
H3897
lick up
H5439
all that is round about
H7794
us, as the ox
H3897
licketh up
H3418
the grass
H7704
of the field.
H1111
And Balak
H1121
the son
H6834
of Zippor
H4428
was king
H4124
of Moab
H6256
at that time.
5
H7971
And he sent
H4397
messengers
H1109
unto Balaam
H1121
the son
H1160
of Beor,
H6604
to Pethor,
H5104
which is by the River,
H776
to the land
H1121
of the children
H5971
of his people,
H7121
to call
H559
him, saying,
H5971
Behold, there is a people
H3318
come out
H4714
from Egypt:
H3680
behold, they cover
H5869
the face
H776
of the earth,
H3427
and they abide
H4136
over against me.
6
H3212
Come
H779
now therefore, I pray thee, curse
H5971
me this people;
H6099
for they are too mighty
H3201
for me: peradventure I shall prevail,
H5221
that we may smite
H1644
them, and that I may drive them out
H776
of the land;
H3045
for I know
H1288
that he whom thou blessest
H1288
is blessed,
H779
and he whom thou cursest
H779
is cursed.
7
H2205
And the elders
H4124
of Moab
H2205
and the elders
H4080
of Midian
H3212
departed
H7081
with the rewards of divination
H3027
in their hand;
H935
and they came
H1109
unto Balaam,
H1696
and spake
H1697
unto him the words
H1111
of Balak.
8
H559
And he said
H3885
unto them, Lodge
H3915
here this night,
H7725
and I will bring
H1697
you word
H7725
again,
H3068
as Jehovah
H1696
shall speak
H8269
unto me: and the princes
H4124
of Moab
H3427
abode
H1109
with Balaam.
10
H1109
And Balaam
H559
said
H430
unto God,
H1111
Balak
H1121
the son
H6834
of Zippor,
H4428
king
H4124
of Moab,
H7971
hath sent unto me, saying,
11
H5971
Behold, the people
H3318
that is come out
H4714
of Egypt,
H3680
it covereth
H5869
the face
H776
of the earth:
H3212
now, come
H6895
curse
H3201
me them; peradventure I shall be able
H3898
to fight against
H1644
them, and shall drive them out.
12
H430
And God
H559
said
H1109
unto Balaam,
H3212
Thou shalt not go
H779
with them; thou shalt not curse
H5971
the people;
H1288
for they are blessed.
13
H1109
And Balaam
H6965
rose up
H1242
in the morning,
H559
and said
H8269
unto the princes
H1111
of Balak,
H3212
Get
H776
you into your land;
H3068
for Jehovah
H3985
refuseth
H5414
to give me leave
H1980
to go with you.
14
H8269
And the princes
H4124
of Moab
H6965
rose up,
H935
and they went
H1111
unto Balak,
H559
and said,
H1109
Balaam
H3985
refuseth
H1980
to come with us.
15
H1111
And Balak
H7971
sent
H3254
yet again
H8269
princes,
H7227
more,
H3513
and more honorable than they.
16
H935
And they came
H1109
to Balaam,
H559
and said
H559
to him, Thus saith
H1111
Balak
H1121
the son
H6834
of Zippor,
H4513
Let nothing, I pray thee, hinder
H1980
thee from coming unto me:
17
H3513
for I will promote
H3966
thee unto very
H3513
great
H3513
honor,
H559
and whatsoever thou sayest
H6213
unto me I will do:
H3212
come
H6895
therefore, I pray thee, curse
H5971
me this people.
18
H1109
And Balaam
H6030
answered
H559
and said
H5650
unto the servants
H1111
of Balak,
H1111
If Balak
H5414
would give
H1004
me his house
H4393
full
H3701
of silver
H2091
and gold,
H3201
I cannot
H5674
go beyond
H6310
the word
H3068
of Jehovah
H430
my God,
H6213
to do
H6996
less
H1419
or more.
19
H3427
Now therefore, I pray you, tarry
H3915
ye also here this night,
H3045
that I may know
H3068
what Jehovah
H1696
will speak
H3254
unto me more.
20
H430
And God
H935
came
H1109
unto Balaam
H3915
at night,
H559
and said
H582
unto him, If the men
H935
are come
H7121
to call
H6965
thee, rise up,
H3212
go
H389
with them; but
H1697
only the word
H1696
which I speak
H6213
unto thee, that shalt thou do.
21
H1109
And Balaam
H6965
rose up
H1242
in the morning,
H2280
and saddled
H860
his ass,
H3212
and went
H8269
with the princes
H4124
of Moab.
22
H430
And God's
H639
anger
H2734
was kindled
H1980
because he went;
H4397
and the angel
H3068
of Jehovah
H3320
placed
H1870
himself in the way
H7854
for an adversary
H7392
against him. Now he was riding
H860
upon his ass,
H8147
and his two
H5288
servants were with him.
23
H860
And the ass
H7200
saw
H4397
the angel
H3068
of Jehovah
H5324
standing
H1870
in the way,
H2719
with his sword
H8025
drawn
H3027
in his hand;
H860
and the ass
H5186
turned aside
H1870
out of the way,
H3212
and went
H7704
into the field:
H1109
and Balaam
H5221
smote
H860
the ass,
H5186
to turn
H1870
her into the way.
24
H4397
Then the angel
H3068
of Jehovah
H5975
stood
H4934
in a narrow path
H3754
between the vineyards,
H1447
a wall
H1447
being on this side, and a wall on that side.
25
H860
And the ass
H7200
saw
H4397
the angel
H3068
of Jehovah,
H3905
and she thrust
H7023
herself unto the wall,
H3905
and crushed
H1109
Balaam's
H7272
foot
H7023
against the wall:
H5221
and he smote
H3254
her again.
26
H4397
And the angel
H3068
of Jehovah
H5674
went
H3254
further,
H5975
and stood
H6862
in a narrow
H4725
place,
H1870
where was no way
H5186
to turn
H3225
either to the right hand
H8040
or to the left.
27
H860
And the ass
H7200
saw
H4397
the angel
H3068
of Jehovah,
H7257
and she lay down
H1109
under Balaam:
H1109
and Balaam's
H639
anger
H2734
was kindled,
H5221
and he smote
H860
the ass
H4731
with his staff.
28
H3068
And Jehovah
H6605
opened
H6310
the mouth
H860
of the ass,
H559
and she said
H1109
unto Balaam,
H6213
What have I done
H5221
unto thee, that thou hast smitten
H7969
me these three
H7272
times?
29
H1109
And Balaam
H559
said
H860
unto the ass,
H5953
Because thou hast mocked
H3863
me, I would
H3426
there were
H2719
a sword
H3027
in my hand,
H2026
for now I had killed thee.
30
H860
And the ass
H559
said
H1109
unto Balaam,
H860
Am not I thine ass,
H7392
upon which thou hast ridden
H3117
all thy life long unto this day?
H5532
was I ever
H5532
wont
H6213
to do so
H559
unto thee? and he said, Nay.
31
H3068
Then Jehovah
H1540
opened
H5869
the eyes
H1109
of Balaam,
H7200
and he saw
H4397
the angel
H3068
of Jehovah
H5324
standing
H1870
in the way,
H2719
with his sword
H8025
drawn
H3027
in his hand;
H6915
and he bowed
H7812
his head, and fell
H639
on his face.
32
H4397
And the angel
H3068
of Jehovah
H559
said
H5221
unto him, Wherefore hast thou smitten
H860
thine ass
H7969
these three
H7272
times?
H3318
behold, I am come forth
H7854
for an adversary,
H1870
because thy way
H3399
is perverse before me:
33
H860
and the ass
H7200
saw
H5186
me, and turned
H6440
aside before me
H7969
these three
H7272
times:
H194
unless
H5186
she had turned
H6440
aside from me,
H2026
surely now I had even slain
H2421
thee, and saved her alive.
34
H1109
And Balaam
H559
said
H4397
unto the angel
H3068
of Jehovah,
H2398
I have sinned;
H3045
for I knew
H5324
not that thou stoodest
H1870
in the way
H7125
against
H7489
me: now therefore, if it displease thee,
H7725
I will get me back again.
35
H4397
And the angel
H3068
of Jehovah
H559
said
H1109
unto Balaam,
H3212
Go
H582
with the men;
H657
but only
H1697
the word
H1696
that I shall speak
H1696
unto thee, that thou shalt speak.
H1109
So Balaam
H3212
went
H8269
with the princes
H1111
of Balak.
36
H1111
And when Balak
H8085
heard
H1109
that Balaam
H935
was come,
H3318
he went out
H7125
to meet
H5892
him unto the City
H4124
of Moab,
H1366
which is on the border
H769
of the Arnon,
H7097
which is in the utmost
H1366
part of the border.
37
H1111
And Balak
H559
said
H1109
unto Balaam,
H7971
Did I not earnestly
H7971
send
H7121
unto thee to call
H1980
thee? wherefore camest
H3201
thou not unto me? am I not able
H552
indeed
H3513
to promote thee to honor?
38
H1109
And Balaam
H559
said
H1111
unto Balak,
H935
Lo, I am come
H3201
unto thee: have I now any power
H3201
at all
H1696
to speak
H3972
anything?
H1697
the word
H430
that God
H7760
putteth
H6310
in my mouth,
H1696
that shall I speak.
