Numbers 23:1-10

And Balaam
<01109>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Balak
<01111>_,
Build
<01129> (8798)
me here seven
<07651>
altars
<04196>_,
and prepare
<03559> (8685)
me here seven
<07651>
oxen
<06499>
and seven
<07651>
rams
<0352>_.
And Balak
<01111>
did
<06213> (8799)
as Balaam
<01109>
had spoken
<01696> (8765)_;
and Balak
<01111>
and Balaam
<01109>
offered
<05927> (8686)
on [every] altar
<04196>
a bullock
<06499>
and a ram
<0352>_.
And Balaam
<01109>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Balak
<01111>_,
Stand
<03320> (8690)
by thy burnt offering
<05930>_,
and I will go
<03212> (8799)_:
peradventure the LORD
<03068>
will come
<07136> (8735)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
me: and whatsoever
<01697>
he sheweth
<07200> (8686)
me I will tell
<05046> (8689)
thee. And he went
<03212> (8799)
to an high place
<08205>_.
{to an...: or, solitary}
And God
<0430>
met
<07136> (8735)
Balaam
<01109>_:
and he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, I have prepared
<06186> (8804)
seven
<07651>
altars
<04196>_,
and I have offered
<05927> (8686)
upon [every] altar
<04196>
a bullock
<06499>
and a ram
<0352>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
put
<07760> (8799)
a word
<01697>
in Balaam's
<01109>
mouth
<06310>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Return
<07725> (8798)
unto Balak
<01111>_,
and thus thou shalt speak
<01696> (8762)_.
And he returned
<07725> (8799)
unto him, and, lo, he stood
<05324> (8737)
by his burnt sacrifice
<05930>_,
he, and all the princes
<08269>
of Moab
<04124>_.
And he took up
<05375> (8799)
his parable
<04912>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Balak
<01111>
the king
<04428>
of Moab
<04124>
hath brought
<05148> (8686)
me from Aram
<0758>_,
out of the mountains
<02042>
of the east
<06924>_,
[saying], Come
<03212> (8798)_,
curse
<0779> (8798)
me Jacob
<03290>_,
and come
<03212> (8798)_,
defy
<02194> (8798)
Israel
<03478>_.
How
<04100>
shall I curse
<05344> (8799)_,
whom God
<0410>
hath not cursed
<06895> (8804)_?
or how shall I defy
<02194> (8799)_,
[whom] the LORD
<03068>
hath not defied
<02194> (8804)_?
For from the top
<07218>
of the rocks
<06697>
I see
<07200> (8799)
him, and from the hills
<01389>
I behold
<07789> (8799)
him: lo, the people
<05971>
shall dwell
<07931> (8799)
alone
<0910>_,
and shall not be reckoned
<02803> (8691)
among the nations
<01471>_.
Who can count
<04487> (8804)
the dust
<06083>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
and the number
<04557>
of the fourth
<07255>
[part] of Israel
<03478>_?
Let me die
<04191> (8799) <05315>
the death
<04194>
of the righteous
<03477>_,
and let my last
<0319>
end be like his! {me: Heb. my soul, or, my life}
