Numbers 23

1 And he said Balaam to Balak build for me in this [place] seven altars and prepare for me in this [place] seven young bulls and seven rams.

2 And he did Balak just as he had spoken Balaam and he offered up Balak and Balaam a young bull and a ram on the altar.

3 And he said Balaam to Balak take your stand with burnt offering your so let me go perhaps he will meet Yahweh to meet me and [the] word of whatever he will show me and I will tell to you and he went a bare height.

4 And he met God Balaam and he said to him [the] seven the altars I have arranged and I have offered up a young bull and a ram on the altar.

5 And he put Yahweh a word in [the] mouth of Balaam and he said return to Balak and thus you will speak.

6 And he returned to him and there! [he was] standing with burnt offering his he and all [the] leaders of Moab.

7 And he lifted up oracle his and he said from Aram he led me Balak [the] king of Moab from [the] mountains of [the] east come! curse! for me Jacob and come! denounce! Israel.

8 What? will I curse [one whom] not he has cursed him God and what? will I denounce [one whom] not he has denounced Yahweh.

9 For from [the] top of [the] rocks I see him and from [the] hills I observe him there! a people [which] alone it dwells and among the nations not it reckons itself.

10 Who? has he counted [the] dust of Jacob and a number [the] fourth part of Israel let it die self my [the] death of upright [people] and let it be end my like his.

11 And he said Balak to Balaam what? have you done to me to curse enemies my I took you and here! you have blessed actually.

12 And he answered and he said ¿ not [that] which he will put Yahweh in mouth my it will I take care to speak.

13 And he said to him Balak (come there! *Q(K)*) please with me to a place another where you will see it from there only outskirt[s] its you will see and all of it not you will see and curse it for me from there.

14 And he took him [the] field of Zophim to [the] top of Pisgah and he built seven altars and he offered up a young bull and a ram on the altar.

15 And he said to Balak take your stand thus with burnt offering your and I I will meet thus.

16 And he met Yahweh Balaam and he put a word in mouth his and he said return to Balak and thus you will speak.

17 And he went to him and there he [was] standing with burnt offering his and [the] leaders of Moab [were] with him and he said to him Balak what? has he spoken Yahweh.

18 And he lifted up oracle his and he said arise O Balak and hear give ear! to me [O] son his Zippor.

19 Not [is] a human God so he may lie and a son of humankind so he may change his mind ¿ he has he said and not will he act? and has he spoken? and not will he fulfill? it.

20 Here! [surely] blessing I have received and he has blessed and not I will turn back it.

21 Not he has looked at disaster in Jacob and not he has seen trouble in Israel Yahweh God his [is] with him and a shout of a king [is] among him.

22 God [is] bringing out them from Egypt like [the] horns of a wild ox [belong] to him.

23 For not enchantment [is] in Jacob and not divination [is] in Israel about this time it will be said of Jacob and of Israel what! has he done God.

24 There! a people like a lion it rises and like a lion it lifts itself up not it will lie down until it will devour prey and [the] blood of [those] slain it will drink.

25 And he said Balak to Balaam neither at all not you will curse it nor at all not you will bless it.

26 And he answered Balaam and he said to Balak ¿ not did I speak to you saying all that he will speak Yahweh it I will do.

27 And he said Balak to Balaam come! please let me take you to a place another perhaps it will be pleasing in [the] eyes of God and you will curse it for me from there.

28 And he took Balak Balaam [the] top of Peor which looks down over [the] face of the desolate place.

29 And he said Balaam to Balak build for me in this [place] seven altars and prepare for me in this [place] seven young bulls and seven rams.

30 And he did Balak just as he had said Balaam and he offered up a young bull and a ram on the altar.
