7: And he took upH5375 his oracle,H4912 and said,H0559 fromH4480 Syria,H0758 has brought meH5148 BalakH1111 the kingH4428 of MoabH4124 from the mountainsH2042 of the east,H6924 come,H1980 curseH0779 Jacob,H3290 and come,H1980 denounceH2194 Israel.H3478

8: HowH4100 shall I curseH5344 notH3808 [whom] has cursed,H6895 GodH0410 and howH4100 shall I denounce,H2194 notH3808 [whom] has denouncedH2194 Yahweh?H3068

9: forH3588 from the topH7218 of the rocksH6697 I see himH7200 and from the hillsH1389 I behold himH7789 there,H2005 a peopleH5971 alone,H0910 dwellingH7931 and among the nationsH1471 NotH3808 reckoning itself.H2803

10: WhoH4310 can countH4487 the dustH6083 of Jacob,H3290 Or numberH4557 -H0853 one-fourthH7255 of Israel?H3478 let dieH4191 meH5315 the deathH4194 of the righteous,H3477 and let beH1961 my endH0319 like his!H3644

11: and saidH0559 BalakH1111 toH0413 Balaam,H1109 whatH4100 have you doneH6213 to curseH6895 my enemies,H0341 I took youH3947 and look,H2009 you have blessed [them]H1288 bountifully.H1288

12: So he answeredH6030 and said,H0559 notH3808 -H0853 whatH0834 has putH7760 YahwehH3068 in my mouth?H6310 -H0853 Must I take heedH8104 to speak.H1696

13: And saidH0559 to himH0413 BalakH1111 come please,H1980 with meH0854 toH0413 place,H4725 anotherH0312 whereH0834 you may see themH7200 from there.H8033 Only the outerH0657 part of themH7097 you shall seeH7200 and them all-H3605 notH3808 shall seeH7200 and curse themH6895 from there.H8033

14: So he brought himH3947 to the fieldH7704 of Zophim,H6839 toH0413 the topH7218 of Pisgah,H6449 and builtH1129 sevenH7651 altars,H4196 and offeredH5927 a bullH6499 and a ramH0352 on [each] altar.H4196

15: And he saidH0559 toH0413 Balak,H1111 StandH3320 hereH3541 byH5921 your burnt offering,H5930 and while IH0595 meet [the Lord]H7136 over there.H3541

16: And metH7136 YahwehH3068 withH0413 Balaam,H1109 and putH7760 a wordH1697 in his mouth,H6310 and said,H0559 go backH7725 toH0413 Balak,H1111 and thusH3541 you shall speak.H1696

17: So he cameH0935 to himH0413 and there he was,H2009 standingH5324 byH5921 his burnt offering,H5930 and the princesH8269 of Moab wereH4124 with himH0854 and saidH0559 BalakH1111 whatH4100 has spokenH1696 Yahweh?H3068

18: and he took upH5375 his oracle,H4912 and said,H0559 Rise up,H6965 Balak,H1111 and hear-H8085 ListenH0238 to meH5704 sonH1121 of Zippor!H6834

19: notH3808 [is] a man,H0376 GodH0410 that He should lie-H3576 nor a sonH1121 of man,H0120 that He should repent-H5162 Has HeH1931 said,H0559 and notH3808 will He doH6213 Or has He spoken,H1696 and notH3808 will He make it good?H6965

20: behold,H2009 to bless-H1288 I have received [a command]H3947 and He has blessed-H1288 and cannotH3808 I reverse it.H7725

21: NotH3808 He has observedH5027 iniquityH0205 in Jacob,H3290 norH3808 has He seenH7200 wickednessH5999 in Israel-H3478 YahwehH3068 his GodH0430 [is] with himH5973 and the shoutH8643 of a KingH4428

22: GodH0410 brings them outH3318 of EgyptH4714 like strengthH8443 a wild oxH7214

23: ForH3588 noH3808 [there is] sorceryH5173 against Jacob,H3290 norH3808 any divinationH7081 against Israel-H3478 nowH6256 it must be saidH0559 of JacobH3290 and of Israel,H3478 whatH4100 has done!H6466 Oh God.H0410

24: Look,H2005 a peopleH5971 like a lioness,H3833 risesH6965 and like a lion-H0738 lifts itself upH5375 notH3808 it shall lie downH7901 untilH5704 it devoursH0398 the prey,H2964 and the bloodH1818 of the slainH2491 drinks.H8354

25: And saidH0559 BalakH1111 toH0413 Balaam,H1109 indeedH1571 at all,H6895 neitherH3808 curse themH5344 indeedH1571 at allH1288 norH3808 bless them.H1288

26: So answeredH6030 BalaamH1109 and saidH0559 toH0413 Balak,H1111 did notH3808 I tell,H1696 youH0413 saying,H0559 allH3605 thatH0834 speaksH1696 YahwehH3068 thatH0853 I must do?H6213

27: and saidH0559 BalakH1111 toH0413 Balaam,H1109 come,H1980 please,H4994 I will take youH3947 toH0413 place-H4725 anotherH0312 perhapsH0194 it will pleaseH3477 the eyeH5869 of GodH0430 that you may curse themH6895 from there.H8033

28: So tookH3947 BalakH1111 -H0853 BalaamH1109 to the topH7218 of Peor,H6465 that overlooksH8259 towardH5921 the gace ofH6440 the wasteland.H3452

29: And saidH0559 BalaamH1109 toH0413 Balak,H1111 BuildH1129 in this [place]H2088 sevenH7651 altars,H4196 and prepareH3559 in this [place]H2088 sevenH7651 bullsH6499 and sevenH7651 rams.H0352

30: And didH6213 BalakH1111 asH0834 had said,H0559 BalaamH1109 and offeredH5927 a bullH6499 and a ramH0352 on [every] altar.H4196
