17for I will promote you to very great honor, and whatever you say to me I will do. Please come therefore, and curse this people for me.
18Balaam answered the servants of Balak, If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I can`t go beyond the word of Yahweh my God, to do less or more.
19Now therefore, please wait also here this night, that I may know what Yahweh will speak to me more.
20God came to Balaam at night, and said to him, If the men are come to call you, rise up, go with them; but only the word which I speak to you, that shall you do.
21Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and went with the princes of Moab.
22God`s anger was kindled because he went; and the angel of Yahweh placed himself in the way for an adversary against him. Now he was riding on his donkey, and his two servants were with him.
23The donkey saw the angel of Yahweh standing in the way, with his sword drawn in his hand; and the donkey turned aside out of the way, and went into the field: and Balaam struck the donkey, to turn her into the way.
