Numbers 22:12-14

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹² God said to Balaam, “You shall not go with them; you shall not curse the people, for they are blessed.” ¹³ So Balaam rose in the morning, and said to the officials of Balak, “Go to your own land, for the Lord has refused to let me go with you.” ¹⁴ So the officials of Moab rose and went to Balak, and said, “Balaam refuses to come with us.”
