Numbers 22:11-13

Easy-to-Read Version

¹¹ This is the message: A new nation of people has come out of Egypt. There are so many people that they cover the land. So come and curse these people. Then maybe I will be able to fight them and force them to leave my land.”

¹² But God said to Balaam, “Don’t go with them. You must not curse those people. They are my people.”

¹³ The next morning Balaam got up and said to leaders from Balak, “Go back to your own country. The Lord will not let me go with you.”
