Numbers 24:12-14

Complete Jewish Bible

¹² Bil‘am answered Balak, “Didn’t I tell the messengers you sent me ¹³ that even if Balak would give me his palace full of silver and gold, I could not of my own accord go beyond the word of Adonai to do either good or bad? that what Adonai said is what I would say? (LY: vii) ¹⁴ But now that I am going back to my own people, come, I will warn you what this people will do to your people in the acharit-hayamim.
