Numbers 22:15-20

New American Standard Bible

¹⁵ Then Balak sent representatives once again, more numerous and more distinguished than ^[a]the previous. ¹⁶ They came to Balaam and said to him, “This is what Balak the son of Zippor says: ‘I beg you, let nothing keep you from coming to me; ¹⁷ for I will indeed honor you richly, and I will do whatever you tell me. ^(A)Please come then, curse this people for me.’” ¹⁸ But Balaam replied to the servants of Balak, “^(B)Even if Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not do anything, either small or great, contrary to the ^[b]command of the Lord my God. ¹⁹ Now please, you also stay here tonight, and I will find out what else the Lord will say to me.” ²⁰ And God came to Balaam at night and said to him, “If the men have come to call you, rise and go with them; but you shall do ^(C)only the thing that I tell you.”
