11Balak said to Balaam, What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and, behold, you have blessed them altogether.
12He answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which Yahweh puts in my mouth?
13Balak said to him, Please come with me to another place, from whence you may see them; you shall see but the utmost part of them, and shall not see them all: and curse me them from there.
14He took him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered up a bull and a ram on every altar.
15He said to Balak, Stand here by your burnt offering, while I meet [Yahweh] yonder.
16Yahweh met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Return to Balak, and thus shall you speak.
17He came to him, and, behold, he was standing by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with him. Balak said to him, What has Yahweh spoken?
