Numbers 22:10-12

New Living Translation

¹⁰ Balaam said to God, “Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab, has sent me this message: ¹¹ ‘Look, a vast horde of people has arrived from Egypt, and they cover the face of the earth. Come and curse these people for me. Then perhaps I will be able to stand up to them and drive them from the land.’”

¹² But God told Balaam, “Do not go with them. You are not to curse these people, for they have been blessed!”
