| 23:1 | And Balaam1109 said559 unto Balak,1111 Build1129 me here seven7651 altars,4196 and prepare3559 me here seven7651 oxen6499 and seven7651 rams.352 | |
| 23:2 | And Balak1111 did6213 as Balaam1109 had spoken;1696 and Balak1111 and Balaam1109 offered5927 on every altar4196 a bullock6499 and a ram.352 | |
| 23:3 | And Balaam1109 said559 unto Balak,1111 Stand3320 by thy burnt offering,5930 and I will go:3212 peradventure Yahweh3068 will come7136 to meet7125 me: and whatsoever1697 he sheweth7200 me I will tell5046 thee. And he went3212 to an high place.8205 | |
| 23:4 | And Elohim430 met7136 Balaam:1109 and he said559 unto him, I have prepared6186 seven7651 altars,4196 and I have offered5927 upon every altar4196 a bullock6499 and a ram.352 | |
| 23:5 | And Yahweh3068 put7760 a word1697 in Balaam's1109 mouth,6310 and said,559 Return7725 unto Balak,1111 and thus thou shalt speak.1696 | |
| 23:6 | And he returned7725 unto him, and, lo, he stood5324 by his burnt sacrifice,5930 he, and all the princes8269 of Moab.4124 | |
| 23:7 | And he took up5375 his parable,4912 and said,559 Balak1111 the king4428 of Moab4124 hath brought5148 me from Aram,758 out of the mountains2042 of the east,6924 saying, Come,3212 curse779 me Jacob,3290 and come,3212 defy2194 Israel.3478 | |
| 23:8 | How4100 shall I curse,5344 whom El410 hath not cursed?6895 or how shall I defy,2194 whom Yahweh3068 hath not defied?2194 | |
| 23:9 | For from the top7218 of the rocks6697 I see7200 him, and from the hills1389 I behold7789 him: lo, the people5971 shall dwell7931 alone,910 and shall not be reckoned2803 among the nations.1471 | |
| 23:10 | Who can count4487 the dust6083 of Jacob,3290 and the number4557 of the fourth7255 part of Israel?3478 Let me5315 die4191 the death4194 of the righteous,3477 and let my last end319 be like his! | |
| 23:11 | And Balak1111 said559 unto Balaam,1109 What hast thou done6213 unto me? I took3947 thee to curse6895 mine enemies,341 and, behold, thou hast blessed1288 them altogether.1288 | |
| 23:12 | And he answered6030 and said,559 Must I not take heed8104 to speak1696 that which Yahweh3068 hath put7760 in my mouth?6310 | |
| 23:13 | And Balak1111 said559 unto him, Come,3212 I pray thee, with me unto another312 place,4725 from whence thou mayest see7200 them: thou shalt see7200 but657 the utmost part7097 of them, and shalt not see7200 them all: and curse6895 me them from thence. | |
| 23:14 | And he brought3947 him into the field7704 of Zophim,6839 to the top7218 of Pisgah,6449 and built1129 seven7651 altars,4196 and offered5927 a bullock6499 and a ram352 on every altar.4196 | |
| 23:15 | And he said559 unto Balak,1111 Stand3320 here3541 by thy burnt offering,5930 while I meet7136 Yahweh yonder.3541 | |
| 23:16 | And Yahweh3068 met7136 Balaam,1109 and put7760 a word1697 in his mouth,6310 and said,559 Go again7725 unto Balak,1111 and say1696 thus. | |
| 23:17 | And when he came935 to him, behold, he stood5324 by his burnt offering,5930 and the princes8269 of Moab4124 with him. And Balak1111 said559 unto him, What hath Yahweh3068 spoken?1696 | |
| 23:18 | And he took up5375 his parable,4912 and said,559 Rise up,6965 Balak,1111 and hear;8085 hearken238 unto me, thou son1121 of Zippor:6834 | |
| 23:19 | El410 is not a man,376 that he should lie;3576 neither the son1121 of man,120 that he should repent:5162 hath he said,559 and shall he not do6213 it? or hath he spoken,1696 and shall he not make it good?6965 | |
| 23:20 | Behold, I have received3947 commandment to bless:1288 and he hath blessed;1288 and I cannot reverse7725 it. | |
| 23:21 | He hath not beheld5027 iniquity205 in Jacob,3290 neither hath he seen7200 perverseness5999 in Israel:3478 Yahweh3068 his Elohim430 is with him, and the shout8643 of a king4428 is among them. | |
| 23:22 | El410 brought them out3318 of Egypt;4714 he hath as it were the strength8443 of an unicorn.7214 | |
| 23:23 | Surely there is no enchantment5173 against Jacob,3290 neither is there any divination7081 against Israel:3478 according to this time6256 it shall be said559 of Jacob3290 and of Israel,3478 What hath El410 wrought!6466 | |
| 23:24 | Behold, the people5971 shall rise up6965 as a great lion,3833 and lift up5375 himself as a young lion:738 he shall not lie down7901 until he eat398 of the prey,2964 and drink8354 the blood1818 of the slain.2491 | |
| 23:25 | And Balak1111 said559 unto Balaam,1109 Neither curse5344 them at all,6895 nor bless1288 them at all.1288 | |
| 23:26 | But Balaam1109 answered6030 and said559 unto Balak,1111 Told1696 not I thee, saying,559 All that Yahweh3068 speaketh,1696 that I must do?6213 | |
| 23:27 | And Balak1111 said559 unto Balaam,1109 Come,3212 I pray thee, I will bring3947 thee unto another312 place;4725 peradventure it will please3474 Elohim430 that thou mayest curse6895 me them from thence. | |
| 23:28 | And Balak1111 brought3947 Balaam1109 unto the top7218 of Peor,6465 that looketh8259 toward6440 Jeshimon.3452 | |
| 23:29 | And Balaam1109 said559 unto Balak,1111 Build1129 me here seven7651 altars,4196 and prepare3559 me here seven7651 bullocks6499 and seven7651 rams.352 | |
| 23:30 | And Balak1111 did6213 as Balaam1109 had said,559 and offered5927 a bullock6499 and a ram352 on every altar.4196 |
