Numbers 22:15-17

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹⁵ Once again Balak sent officials, more numerous and more distinguished than these. ¹⁶ They came to Balaam and said to him, ‘Thus says Balak son of Zippor: “Do not let anything hinder you from coming to me; ¹⁷ for I will surely do you great honour, and whatever you say to me I will do; come, curse this people for me.”’
