Numbers 22:12-14

The Message

¹² God said to Balaam, “Don’t go with them. And don’t curse the others—they are a blessed people.”

¹³ The next morning Balaam got up and told Balak’s nobles, “Go back home; God refuses to give me permission to go with you.”

¹⁴ So the Moabite nobles left, came back to Balak, and said, “Balaam wouldn’t come with us.”
