Numbers 23:6-23 And he returned to him, and moreover he stood over his whole burnt offerings, and all the princes of Moab with him; and the Spirit of God came upon him.

LXX2012⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ And he returned to him, and moreover he stood over his whole burnt offerings, and all the princes of Moab with him; and the Spirit of God came upon him. ⁷ And he took up his parable, and said, Balac king of Moab sent for me out of Mesopotamia, out of the mountains of the east, saying, Come, curse me Jacob, and Come, call for a curse for me upon Israel. ⁸ How can I curse whom the Lord curses not? or how can I devote whom God devotes not? ⁹ For from the top of the mountains I shall see him, and from the hills I shall observe him: behold, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations. ¹⁰ Who has exactly calculated the seed of Jacob, and who shall number the families of Israel? let my soul die with the souls of the righteous, and let my seed be as their seed. ¹¹ And Balac said to Balaam, What have you done to me? I called you to curse my enemies, and behold you have greatly blessed [them]. ¹² And Balaam said to Balac, Whatsoever the Lord shall put into my mouth, shall I not take heed to speak this? ¹³ And Balac said to him, Come yet with me to another place where you shall not see the people, but only you shall see a part of them, and shall not see them all; and curse me them from thence. ¹⁴ And he took him to a high place of the field to the top of the quarried [rock], and he built there seven altars, and offered a calf and a ram on [every] altar. ¹⁵ And Balaam said to Balac, Stand by your sacrifice, and I will go to enquire of God. ¹⁶ And God met Balaam, and put a word into his mouth, and said, return to Balac, and thus shall you speak. ¹⁷ And he returned to him: and he also was standing by his whole burnt sacrifice, and all the princes of Moab with him; and Balac said to him, What has the Lord spoken? ¹⁸ And he took up his parable, and said, rise up, Balac, and hear; listen as a witness, you son of Sepphor. ¹⁹ God is not as man to waver, nor as the son of man to be threatened; shall he say and not perform? shall he speak and not keep [to his word]? ²⁰ Behold, I have received [commandment] to bless: I will bless, and not turn back. ²¹ There shall not be trouble in Jacob, neither shall sorrow be seen in Israel: the Lord his God [is] with him, the glories of rulers [are] in him. ²² It was God who brought him out of Egypt; he has as it were the glory of a unicorn. ²³ For there is no divination in Jacob, nor enchantment in Israel; in season it shall be told to Jacob and Israel what God shall perform.
