Numbers 23:2-4

Good News Translation

² Balak did as he was told, and he and Balaam offered a bull and a ram on each altar. ³ Then Balaam said to Balak, “Stand here by your burnt offering, while I go to see whether or not the Lord will meet me. I will tell you whatever he reveals to me.” So he went alone to the top of a hill, ⁴ and God met him. Balaam said to him, “I have built the seven altars and offered a bull and a ram on each.”
