Numbers 22:3-6

New International Version

³and Moab was terrified because there were so many people. Indeed, Moab was filled with dread^(A) because of the Israelites.

⁴The Moabites^(B) said to the elders of Midian,^(C) “This horde is going to lick up everything^(D) around us, as an ox licks up the grass of the field.^(E)”

So Balak son of Zippor, who was king of Moab at that time, ⁵sent messengers to summon Balaam son of Beor,^(F) who was at Pethor, near the Euphrates River,^(G) in his native land. Balak said:

“A people has come out of Egypt;^(H) they cover the face of the land and have settled next to me. ⁶Now come and put a curse^(I) on these people, because they are too powerful for me. Perhaps then I will be able to defeat them and drive them out of the land.^(J) For I know that whoever you bless is blessed, and whoever you curse is cursed.”
