04:023:011 And Balak said unto Balaam, What hast thou done unto me?  I
           took thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast
           blessed them altogether.

04:023:012 And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that
           which the lord hath put in my mouth?

04:023:013 And Balak said unto him, Come, I pray thee, with me unto
           another place, from whence thou mayest see them:  thou shalt
           see but the utmost part of them, and shalt not see them all: 
           and curse me them from thence.

04:023:014 And he brought him into the field of Zophim, to the top of
           Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bullock and a
           ram on every altar.

04:023:015 And he said unto Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering,
           while I meet the lord yonder.

04:023:016 And the lord met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and
           said, Go again unto Balak, and say thus.

04:023:017 And when he came to him, behold, he stood by his burnt
           offering, and the princes of Moab with him.  And Balak said
           unto him, What hath the lord spoken?

04:023:018 And he took up his parable, and said, Rise up, Balak, and
           hear; hearken unto me, thou son of Zippor: 

04:023:019 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man,
           that he should repent:  hath he said, and shall he not do it?
           or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

04:023:020 Behold, I have received commandment to bless:  and he hath
           blessed; and I cannot reverse it.

04:023:021 He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen
           perverseness in Israel:  the lord his God is with him, and the
           shout of a king is among them.

04:023:022 God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength
           of an unicorn.

04:023:023 Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there
           any divination against Israel:  according to this time it shall
           be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought!

04:023:024 Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up
           himself as a young lion:  he shall not lie down until he eat of
           the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.

04:023:025 And Balak said unto Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor
           bless them at all.

04:023:026 But Balaam answered and said unto Balak, Told not I thee,
           saying, All that the lord speaketh, that I must do?

04:023:027 And Balak said unto Balaam, Come, I pray thee, I will bring
           thee unto another place; peradventure it will please God that
           thou mayest curse me them from thence.
