Numbers 23:13-15

23:13 Balak said to him, “Please come with me to another place from which you can observe them. You will see only a part of them, but you will not see all of them. Curse them for me from there.”

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. 23:15 And Balaam ⁴  said to Balak, “Station yourself here ⁵  by your burnt offering, while I meet the Lord there.

[23:14]  ³ tn Heb “and he built.”

[23:15]  ¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Balaam) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
