Numbers 23:15-30

23:15

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto Balak
<01111>_,

Stand
<03320> (8690)

here
<03541>

by thy burnt offering
<05930>_,

while I meet
<07136> (8735)

[the LORD] yonder
<03541>_.

23:16

And the LORD
<03068>

met
<07136> (8735)

Balaam
<01109>_,

and put
<07760> (8799)

a word
<01697>

in his mouth
<06310>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go again
<07725> (8798)

unto Balak
<01111>_,

and say
<01696> (8762)

thus.

23:17

And when he came
<0935> (8799)

to him, behold, he stood
<05324> (8737)

by his burnt offering
<05930>_,

and the princes
<08269>

of Moab
<04124>

with him. And Balak
<01111>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, What hath the LORD
<03068>

spoken
<01696> (8765)_?

23:18

And he took up
<05375> (8799)

his parable
<04912>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Rise up
<06965> (8798)_,

Balak
<01111>_,

and hear
<08085> (8798)_;

hearken
<0238> (8685)

unto me, thou son
<01121>

of Zippor
<06834>_:

23:19

God
<0410>

[is] not a man
<0376>_,

that he should lie
<03576> (8762)_;

neither the son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

that he should repent
<05162> (8691)_:

hath he said
<0559> (8804)_,

and shall he not do
<06213> (8799)

[it]? or hath he spoken
<01696> (8765)_,

and shall he not make it good
<06965> (8686)_?

23:20

Behold, I have received
<03947> (8804)

[commandment] to bless
<01288> (8763)_:

and he hath blessed
<01288> (8765)_;

and I cannot reverse
<07725> (8686)

it.

23:21

He hath not beheld
<05027> (8689)

iniquity
<0205>

in Jacob
<03290>_,

neither hath he seen
<07200> (8804)

perverseness
<05999>

in Israel
<03478>_:

the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>

[is] with him, and the shout
<08643>

of a king
<04428>

[is] among them.

23:22

God
<0410>

brought them out
<03318> (8688)

of Egypt
<04714>_;

he hath as it were the strength
<08443>

of an unicorn
<07214>_.

23:23

Surely [there is] no enchantment
<05173>

against Jacob
<03290>_,

neither [is there] any divination
<07081>

against Israel
<03478>_:

according to this time
<06256>

it shall be said
<0559> (8735)

of Jacob
<03290>

and of Israel
<03478>_,

What hath God
<0410>

wrought
<06466> (8804)_!

{against: or, in}

23:24

Behold, the people
<05971>

shall rise up
<06965> (8799)

as a great lion
<03833>_,

and lift up
<05375> (8691)

himself as a young lion
<0738>_:

he shall not lie down
<07901> (8799)

until he eat
<0398> (8799)

[of] the prey
<02964>_,

and drink
<08354> (8799)

the blood
<01818>

of the slain
<02491>_.

23:25

And Balak
<01111>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Balaam
<01109>_,

Neither curse
<05344> (8799)

them at all
<06895> (8800)_,

nor bless
<01288> (8762)

them at all
<01288> (8763)_.

23:26

But Balaam
<01109>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto Balak
<01111>_,

Told
<01696> (8765)

not I thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

All that the LORD
<03068>

speaketh
<01696> (8762)_,

that I must do
<06213> (8799)_?

23:27

And Balak
<01111>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Balaam
<01109>_,

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

I pray thee, I will bring
<03947> (8799)

thee unto another
<0312>

place
<04725>_;

peradventure it will please
<03474> (8799) <05869>

God
<0430>

that thou mayest curse
<06895> (8804)

me them from thence.

23:28

And Balak
<01111>

brought
<03947> (8799)

Balaam
<01109>

unto the top
<07218>

of Peor
<06465>_,

that looketh
<08259> (8737)

toward
<06440>

Jeshimon
<03452>_.

23:29

And Balaam
<01109>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Balak
<01111>_,

Build
<01129> (8798)

me here seven
<07651>

altars
<04196>_,

and prepare
<03559> (8685)

me here seven
<07651>

bullocks
<06499>

and seven
<07651>

rams
<0352>_.

23:30

And Balak
<01111>

did
<06213> (8799)

as Balaam
<01109>

had said
<0559> (8804)_,

and offered
<05927> (8686)

a bullock
<06499>

and a ram
<0352>

on [every] altar
<04196>_.
