[1] Balaam said to Balak, “Build here seven altars for me, and prepare here seven bulls and seven rams for me.” [2] Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bull and a ram. [3] Balaam said to Balak, “Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go. Perhaps Yahweh will come to meet me. Whatever he shows me I will tell you.”He went to a bare height. [4] God met Balaam, and he said to him, “I have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered up a bull and a ram on every altar.” [5] Yahweh put a word in Balaam’s mouth, and said, “Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak.” [6] He returned to him, and behold, he was standing by his burnt offering, he, and all the princes of Moab. [7] He took up his parable, and said,
“From Aram has Balak brought me,
the king of Moab from the mountains of the East.
Come, curse Jacob for me.
Come, defy Israel.
[8] How shall I curse whom God has not cursed?
How shall I defy whom Yahweh has not defied?
[9] For from the top of the rocks I see him.
From the hills I see him.
Behold, it is a people that dwells alone,
and shall not be listed among the nations.
[10] Who can count the dust of Jacob,
or count the fourth part of Israel?
Let me die the death of the righteous!
Let my last end be like his!” [11] Balak said to Balaam, “What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and behold, you have blessed them altogether.” [12] He answered and said, “Must I not take heed to speak that which Yahweh puts in my mouth?” [13] Balak said to him, “Please come with me to another place, where you may see them. You shall see just part of them, and shall not see them all. Curse them from there for me.” [14] He took him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered up a bull and a ram on every altar. [15] He said to Balak, “Stand here by your burnt offering, while I meet God over there.” [16] Yahweh met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, “Return to Balak, and say this.” [17] He came to him, and behold, he was standing by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with him. Balak said to him, “What has Yahweh spoken?” [18] He took up his parable, and said,
“Rise up, Balak, and hear!
Listen to me, you son of Zippor.
[19] God is not a man, that he should lie,
nor a son of man, that he should repent.
Has he said, and he won’t do it?
Or has he spoken, and he won’t make it good?
[20] Behold, I have received a command to bless.
He has blessed, and I can’t reverse it.
[21] He has not seen iniquity in Jacob.
Neither has he seen perverseness in Israel.
Yahweh his God is with him.
The shout of a king is among them.
[22] God brings them out of Egypt.
He has as it were the strength of the wild ox.
[23] Surely there is no enchantment with Jacob;
neither is there any divination with Israel.
Now it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel,
‘What has God done!’
[24] Behold, a people rises up as a lioness.
As a lion he lifts himself up.
He shall not lie down until he eats of the prey,
and drinks the blood of the slain.” [25] Balak said to Balaam, “Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.” [26] But Balaam answered Balak, “Didn’t I tell you, saying, ‘All that Yahweh speaks, that I must do’?” [27] Balak said to Balaam, “Come now, I will take you to another place; perhaps it will please God that you may curse them for me from there.” [28] Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor, that looks down on the desert. [29] Balaam said to Balak, “Build seven altars for me here, and prepare seven bulls and seven rams for me here.” [30] Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered up a bull and a ram on every altar.
“From Aram has Balak brought me,
the king of Moab from the mountains of the East.
Come, curse Jacob for me.
Come, defy Israel.
[8] How shall I curse whom God has not cursed?
How shall I defy whom Yahweh has not defied?
[9] For from the top of the rocks I see him.
From the hills I see him.

and shall not be listed among the nations.

King James Version
[1] And Balaam H1109 said H559 unto H413 Balak, H1111 Build H1129 me here H2088 seven H7651 altars, H4196 and prepare H3559 me here H2088 seven H7651 oxen H6499 and seven H7651 rams. H352 [2] And Balak H1111 did H6213 as H834 Balaam H1109 had spoken; H1696 and Balak H1111 and Balaam H1109 offered H5927 on every altar H4196 a bullock H6499 and a ram. H352 [3] And Balaam H1109 said H559 unto Balak, H1111 Stand H3320 by H5921 thy burnt offering, H5930 and I will go: H3212 peradventure H194 the Lord H3068 will come H7136 to meet me: H7125 and whatsoever H1697 H4100 he sheweth me H7200 I will tell H5046 thee. And he went H3212 to§ an high place. H8205 [4] And God H430 met H7136 H413 Balaam: H1109 and he said H559 unto him, H413 I have prepared H6186 H853 seven H7651 altars, H4196 and I have offered H5927 upon every altar H4196 a bullock H6499 and a ram. H352 [5] And the Lord H3068 put H7760 a word H1697 in Balaam’s H1109 mouth, H6310 and said, H559 Return H7725 unto H413 Balak, H1111 and thus H3541 thou shalt speak. H1696 [6] And he returned H7725 unto him, H413 and, lo, H2009 he stood H5324 by H5921 his burnt sacrifice, H5930 he, H1931 and all H3605 the princes H8269 of Moab. H4124 [7] And he took up H5375 his parable, H4912 and said, H559
Balak H1111 the king H4428 of Moab H4124 hath brought me H5148 from H4480 Aram, H758
Out of the mountains H2042 of the east, H6924
Saying, Come, H3212 curse H779 me Jacob, H3290
And come, H3212 defy H2194 Israel. H3478
[8] How H4100 shall I curse, H5344 whom God H410 hath H6895 not H3808 cursed? H6895
Or how H4100 shall I defy, H2194 whom the Lord H3068 hath H2194 not H3808 defied? H2194
[9] For H3588 from the top H7218 of the rocks H6697 I see him, H7200
And from the hills H1389 I behold him: H7789
Lo, H2005 the people H5971 shall dwell H7931 alone, H910
And shall H2803 not H3808 be reckoned H2803 among the nations. H1471
[10] Who H4310 can count H4487 the dust H6083 of Jacob, H3290
And the number H4557 H853 of the fourth H7255 part of Israel? H3478
Let H4191 me H5315 die H4191 the death H4194§ of the righteous, H3477
And let H1961 my last end H319 be H1961 like his! H3644
[11] And Balak H1111 said H559 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 What H4100 hast thou done H6213 unto me? I took thee H3947 to curse H6895 mine enemies, H341 and, behold, H2009 thou hast blessed H1288 them altogether. H1288 [12] And he answered H6030 and said, H559 Must I H8104 not H3808 take heed H8104 to speak H1696 H853 that which H834 the Lord H3068 hath put H7760 in my mouth? H6310 H853 [13] And Balak H1111 said H559 unto him, H413 Come, H3212 I pray thee, H4994 with me H854 unto H413 another H312 place, H4725 from whence H834 H8033 thou mayest see them: H7200 thou shalt see H7200 but H657 the utmost part of them, H7097 and shalt H7200 not H3808 see H7200 them all: H3605 and curse H6895 me them H6895 from thence. H8033 [14] And he brought him H3947 into the field H7704 of Zophim, H6839 to H413 the top H7218 of Pisgah, H6449§ and built H1129 seven H7651 altars, H4196 and offered H5927 a bullock H6499 and a ram H352 on every altar. H4196 [15] And he said H559 unto H413 Balak, H1111 Stand H3320 here H3541 by H5921 thy burnt offering, H5930 while I H595 meet H7136 the Lord yonder. H3541 [16] And the Lord H3068 met H7136 H413 Balaam, H1109 and put H7760 a word H1697 in his mouth, H6310 and said, H559 Go again H7725 unto H413 Balak, H1111 and say H1696 thus. H3541 [17] And when he came H935 to him, H413 behold, he H2009 stood H5324 by H5921 his burnt offering, H5930 and the princes H8269 of Moab H4124 with him. H854 And Balak H1111 said H559 unto him, What H4100 hath H1696 the Lord H3068 spoken? H1696 [18] And he took up H5375 his parable, H4912 and said, H559
Rise up, H6965 Balak, H1111 and hear; H8085
Hearken H238 unto me, H5704 thou son H1121 of Zippor: H6834
[19] God H410 is not H3808 a man, H376 that he should lie; H3576
Neither the son H1121 of man, H120 that he should repent: H5162
Hath H559 he H1931 said, H559 and shall he H6213 not H3808 do H6213 it?
Or hath he spoken, H1696 and shall he H6965 not H3808 make it good? H6965
[20] Behold, H2009 I have received H3947 commandment to bless: H1288
And he hath blessed; H1288 and I cannot H3808 reverse it. H7725
[21] He hath H5027 not H3808 beheld H5027 iniquity H205 in Jacob, H3290
Neither H3808 hath he seen H7200 perverseness H5999 in Israel: H3478
The Lord H3068 his God H430 is with him, H5973
And the shout H8643 of a king H4428 is among them.
[22] God H410 brought them out H3318 of Egypt; H4714
He hath as it were the strength H8443 of an unicorn. H7214
[23] Surely H3588 there is no H3808 enchantment H5173 against§ Jacob, H3290
Neither H3808 is there any divination H7081 against Israel: H3478
According to this time H6256 it shall be said H559 of Jacob H3290 and of Israel, H3478
What H4100 hath God H410 wrought! H6466
[24] Behold, H2005 the people H5971 shall rise up H6965 as a great lion, H3833
And lift up himself H5375 as a young lion: H738
He shall H7901 not H3808 lie down H7901 until H5704 he eat H398 of the prey, H2964
And drink H8354 the blood H1818 of the slain. H2491
[25] And Balak H1111 said H559 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 Neither H1571 H3808 curse them H5344 at all, H6895 nor H1571 H3808 bless H1288 them at all. H1288 [26] But Balaam H1109 answered H6030 and said H559 unto H413 Balak, H1111 Told H1696 not H3808 I H1696 thee, H413 saying, H559 All H3605 that H834 the Lord H3068 speaketh, H1696 that H853 I must do? H6213 [27] And Balak H1111 said H559 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 Come, H3212 I pray thee, H4994 I will bring thee H3947 unto H413 another H312 place; H4725 peradventure H194 it will please H3474 H5869 God H430 that thou mayest curse H6895 me them H6895 from thence. H8033 [28] And Balak H1111 brought H3947 H853 Balaam H1109 unto the top H7218 of Peor, H6465 that looketh H8259 toward H5921 H6440 Jeshimon. H3452 [29] And Balaam H1109 said H559 unto H413 Balak, H1111 Build H1129 me here H2088 seven H7651 altars, H4196 and prepare H3559 me here H2088 seven H7651 bullocks H6499 and seven H7651 rams. H352 [30] And Balak H1111 did H6213 as H834 Balaam H1109 had said, H559 and offered H5927 a bullock H6499 and a ram H352 on every altar. H4196
Balak H1111 the king H4428 of Moab H4124 hath brought me H5148 from H4480 Aram, H758
Out of the mountains H2042 of the east, H6924
Saying, Come, H3212 curse H779 me Jacob, H3290
And come, H3212 defy H2194 Israel. H3478
[8] How H4100 shall I curse, H5344 whom God H410 hath H6895 not H3808 cursed? H6895
Or how H4100 shall I defy, H2194 whom the Lord H3068 hath H2194 not H3808 defied? H2194
[9] For H3588 from the top H7218 of the rocks H6697 I see him, H7200
And from the hills H1389 I behold him: H7789
Lo, H2005 the people H5971 shall dwell H7931 alone, H910
And shall H2803 not H3808 be reckoned H2803 among the nations. H1471
[10] Who H4310 can count H4487 the dust H6083 of Jacob, H3290
And the number H4557 H853 of the fourth H7255 part of Israel? H3478
Let H4191 me H5315 die H4191 the death H4194§ of the righteous, H3477
And let H1961 my last end H319 be H1961 like his! H3644
[11] And Balak H1111 said H559 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 What H4100 hast thou done H6213 unto me? I took thee H3947 to curse H6895 mine enemies, H341 and, behold, H2009 thou hast blessed H1288 them altogether. H1288 [12] And he answered H6030 and said, H559 Must I H8104 not H3808 take heed H8104 to speak H1696 H853 that which H834 the Lord H3068 hath put H7760 in my mouth? H6310 H853 [13] And Balak H1111 said H559 unto him, H413 Come, H3212 I pray thee, H4994 with me H854 unto H413 another H312 place, H4725 from whence H834 H8033 thou mayest see them: H7200 thou shalt see H7200 but H657 the utmost part of them, H7097 and shalt H7200 not H3808 see H7200 them all: H3605 and curse H6895 me them H6895 from thence. H8033 [14] And he brought him H3947 into the field H7704 of Zophim, H6839 to H413 the top H7218 of Pisgah, H6449§ and built H1129 seven H7651 altars, H4196 and offered H5927 a bullock H6499 and a ram H352 on every altar. H4196 [15] And he said H559 unto H413 Balak, H1111 Stand H3320 here H3541 by H5921 thy burnt offering, H5930 while I H595 meet H7136 the Lord yonder. H3541 [16] And the Lord H3068 met H7136 H413 Balaam, H1109 and put H7760 a word H1697 in his mouth, H6310 and said, H559 Go again H7725 unto H413 Balak, H1111 and say H1696 thus. H3541 [17] And when he came H935 to him, H413 behold, he H2009 stood H5324 by H5921 his burnt offering, H5930 and the princes H8269 of Moab H4124 with him. H854 And Balak H1111 said H559 unto him, What H4100 hath H1696 the Lord H3068 spoken? H1696 [18] And he took up H5375 his parable, H4912 and said, H559
Rise up, H6965 Balak, H1111 and hear; H8085
Hearken H238 unto me, H5704 thou son H1121 of Zippor: H6834
[19] God H410 is not H3808 a man, H376 that he should lie; H3576
Neither the son H1121 of man, H120 that he should repent: H5162
Hath H559 he H1931 said, H559 and shall he H6213 not H3808 do H6213 it?
Or hath he spoken, H1696 and shall he H6965 not H3808 make it good? H6965
[20] Behold, H2009 I have received H3947 commandment to bless: H1288
And he hath blessed; H1288 and I cannot H3808 reverse it. H7725
[21] He hath H5027 not H3808 beheld H5027 iniquity H205 in Jacob, H3290
Neither H3808 hath he seen H7200 perverseness H5999 in Israel: H3478
The Lord H3068 his God H430 is with him, H5973
And the shout H8643 of a king H4428 is among them.
[22] God H410 brought them out H3318 of Egypt; H4714
He hath as it were the strength H8443 of an unicorn. H7214
[23] Surely H3588 there is no H3808 enchantment H5173 against§ Jacob, H3290
Neither H3808 is there any divination H7081 against Israel: H3478
According to this time H6256 it shall be said H559 of Jacob H3290 and of Israel, H3478
What H4100 hath God H410 wrought! H6466
[24] Behold, H2005 the people H5971 shall rise up H6965 as a great lion, H3833
And lift up himself H5375 as a young lion: H738
He shall H7901 not H3808 lie down H7901 until H5704 he eat H398 of the prey, H2964
And drink H8354 the blood H1818 of the slain. H2491
[25] And Balak H1111 said H559 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 Neither H1571 H3808 curse them H5344 at all, H6895 nor H1571 H3808 bless H1288 them at all. H1288 [26] But Balaam H1109 answered H6030 and said H559 unto H413 Balak, H1111 Told H1696 not H3808 I H1696 thee, H413 saying, H559 All H3605 that H834 the Lord H3068 speaketh, H1696 that H853 I must do? H6213 [27] And Balak H1111 said H559 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 Come, H3212 I pray thee, H4994 I will bring thee H3947 unto H413 another H312 place; H4725 peradventure H194 it will please H3474 H5869 God H430 that thou mayest curse H6895 me them H6895 from thence. H8033 [28] And Balak H1111 brought H3947 H853 Balaam H1109 unto the top H7218 of Peor, H6465 that looketh H8259 toward H5921 H6440 Jeshimon. H3452 [29] And Balaam H1109 said H559 unto H413 Balak, H1111 Build H1129 me here H2088 seven H7651 altars, H4196 and prepare H3559 me here H2088 seven H7651 bullocks H6499 and seven H7651 rams. H352 [30] And Balak H1111 did H6213 as H834 Balaam H1109 had said, H559 and offered H5927 a bullock H6499 and a ram H352 on every altar. H4196

Footnotes
- ‡ 23:27 Corrected from καταρᾶσαί, as seen in RH and SW. The aorist middle imperative κατάρασαι is accented on the third syllable from the end, and the enclitic μοι after it adds a second acute. This edition prints the same command, κατάρασαί μοι αὐτὸν ἐκεῖθεν, at Numbers 23:13.
