Numbers 22:15-20
Modern English Version
15 Again Balak sent officials, more numerous and more honorable than they. 16 They came to Balaam and said to him,
“Thus says Balak the son of Zippor, ‘Please, let nothing hold you back from coming to me, 17 because I will promote you to very great honor, and anything you say to me I will do. Come please, curse this people for me.’ ”
18 Balaam answered the servants of Balak, “If Balak gave me his house full of silver and gold, I am not able to go beyond the command of the Lord my God, to do less or more. 19 Now please remain here tonight, that I may know what more the Lord will say to me.”
20 God came to Balaam at night and said to him, “If the men come to call you, rise up and go with them. But surely the word which I will say to you, that will you do.”

New King James Version
15 Then Balak again sent princes, more numerous and more [a]honorable than they. 16 And they came to Balaam and said to him, “Thus says Balak the son of Zippor: ‘Please let nothing hinder you from coming to me; 17 for I will certainly (A)honor you greatly, and I will do whatever you say to me. (B)Therefore please come, curse this people for me.’ ”
18 Then Balaam answered and said to the servants of Balak, (C)“Though Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, (D)I could not go beyond the word of the Lord my God, to do less or more. 19 Now therefore, please, you also (E)stay here tonight, that I may know what more the Lord will say to me.”
20 (F)And God came to Balaam at night and said to him, “If the men come to call you, rise and go with them; but (G)only the word which I speak to you—that you shall do.”
