Numbers 22:37-39

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³⁷ Balak said to Balaam, “Did I not send to summon you? Why did you not come to me? Am I not able to honor you?” ³⁸ Balaam said to Balak, “I have come to you now, but do I have power to say just anything? The word God puts in my mouth, that is what I must say.” ³⁹ Then Balaam went with Balak, and they came to Kiriath-huzoth.
