Numbers 23:14

23:14 So Balak brought Balaam ¹  to the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, ²  where ³  he built seven altars and offered a bull and a ram on each altar.

Numbers 16:14

16:14 Moreover, ⁴  you have not brought us into a land that flows with milk and honey, nor given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards. Do you think you can blind ⁵  these men? We will not come up.”

¹ tn Heb “he brought him”; the referents (Balak and Balaam) have been specified in the translation for clarity.

² tn Some scholars do not translate this word as “Pisgah,” but rather as a “lookout post” or an “elevated place.”

³ tn Heb “and he built.”

⁴ tn Here אַף (’af) has the sense of “in addition.” It is not a common use.

⁵ tn Heb “will you bore out the eyes of these men?” The question is “Will you continue to mislead them?” (or “hoodwink” them). In Deut 16:19 it is used for taking a bribe; something like that kind of deception is intended here. They are simply stating that Moses is a deceiver who is misleading the people with false promises.
