1	And Balaam said# unto Balak, Build# me here seven altars, and prepare# me here seven oxen and seven rams.
			2	And Balak did# as Balaam had spoken# ; and Balak and Balaam offered# on every altar a bullock and a ram.
			3	And Balaam said# unto Balak, Stand# by thy burnt offering, and I will go# : peradventure the LORD will come# to meet# me: and whatsoever he sheweth# me I will tell# thee. And he went# to an high place. [to an...: or, solitary]
			4	And God met# Balaam: and he said# unto him, I have prepared# seven altars, and I have offered# upon every altar a bullock and a ram.
			5	And the LORD put# a word in Balaam's mouth, and said# , Return# unto Balak, and thus thou shalt speak# .
			6	And he returned# unto him, and, lo, he stood# by his burnt sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab.
			7	And he took up# his parable, and said# , Balak the king of Moab hath brought# me from Aram, out of the mountains of the east, saying , Come# , curse# me Jacob, and come# , defy# Israel.
			8	How shall I curse# , whom God hath not cursed# ? or how shall I defy# , whom the LORD hath not defied# ?
			9	For from the top of the rocks I see# him, and from the hills I behold# him: lo, the people shall dwell# alone, and shall not be reckoned# among the nations.
			10	Who can count# the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Let me die# # the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his! [me: Heb. my soul, or, my life]
			11	And Balak said# unto Balaam, What hast thou done# unto me? I took# thee to curse# mine enemies# , and, behold, thou hast blessed# them altogether# .
			12	And he answered# and said# , Must I not take heed# to speak# that which the LORD hath put# in my mouth?
			13	And Balak said# unto him, Come# , I pray thee, with me unto another place, from whence thou mayest see# them: thou shalt see# but the utmost part of them, and shalt not see# them all: and curse# me them from thence.
			14	And he brought# him into the field of Zophim# # # , to the top of Pisgah, and built# seven altars, and offered# a bullock and a ram on every altar. [Pisgah: or, the hill]
			15	And he said# unto Balak, Stand# here by thy burnt offering, while I meet# the LORD yonder.
			16	And the LORD met# Balaam, and put# a word in his mouth, and said# , Go again# unto Balak, and say# thus.
			17	And when he came# to him, behold, he stood# by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said# unto him, What hath the LORD spoken# ?
			18	And he took up# his parable, and said# , Rise up# , Balak, and hear# ; hearken# unto me, thou son of Zippor:
			19	God is not a man, that he should lie# ; neither the son of man, that he should repent# : hath he said# , and shall he not do# it ? or hath he spoken# , and shall he not make it good# ?
			20	Behold, I have received# commandment to bless# : and he hath blessed# ; and I cannot reverse# it.
			21	He hath not beheld# iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen# perverseness in Israel: the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.
			22	God brought them out# of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn.
			23	Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said# of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought# ! [against: or, in]
			24	Behold, the people shall rise up# as a great lion, and lift up# himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down# until he eat# of the prey, and drink# the blood of the slain.
			25	And Balak said# unto Balaam, Neither curse# them at all# , nor bless# them at all# .
			26	But Balaam answered# and said# unto Balak, Told# not I thee, saying# , All that the LORD speaketh# , that I must do# ?
			27	And Balak said# unto Balaam, Come# , I pray thee, I will bring# thee unto another place; peradventure it will please# # God that thou mayest curse# me them from thence.
			28	And Balak brought# Balaam unto the top of Peor, that looketh# toward Jeshimon.
			29	And Balaam said# unto Balak, Build# me here seven altars, and prepare# me here seven bullocks and seven rams.
			30	And Balak did# as Balaam had said# , and offered# a bullock and a ram on every altar.
