Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Whereupon Balaam said to Balak, Build for me here seven altars, and prepare for me here seven young bulls, and seven rams. ² And when Balak had done as Balaam had ordered him; and had offered a bull, and a ram, on each altar, ³ then Balaam said to Balak, Stand by thy sacrifice, and I will advance on. If God appear to me by any occurrence, whatever he shall shew me I will tell thee.
