1
Then Balaam said to Balak, "Build seven altars for me here, and prepare for me here seven bulls and seven rams."
2
And Balak did just as Balaam had spoken, and Balak and Balaam offered a bull and a ram on each altar.
3
Then Balaam said to Balak, "Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go; perhaps the Lord will come to meet me, and whatever He shows me I will tell you." So he went to a desolate height.
4
And God met Balaam, and he said to Him, "I have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered on each altar a bull and a ram.
5
Then the Lord put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, "Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak."
6
So he returned to him, and there he was, standing by his burnt offering, he and all the princes of Moab.
