Numbers 22:5-7
Legacy Standard Bible
5 So he sent messengers to (A)Balaam the son of Beor, at (B)Pethor, which is near the [a]River, in the land of the sons of his people, to call him, saying, “Behold, a people came out of Egypt; behold, they cover the surface of the land, and they are settled opposite me. 6 (C)So now, please come, (D)curse this people for me since they are too [b]mighty for me; perhaps I may be able to strike them down and drive them out of the land. For I know that he whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed.”
7 So the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian went away with the fees for (E)divination in their hand; and they came to Balaam and spoke Balak’s words to him.
