Common English Bible

¹⁰ Balaam said to God, “Moab’s King Balak, Zippor’s son, sent them to me with the message, ¹¹ ‘A people has come out of Egypt and covered the land. Now come and curse them for me. Perhaps I’ll be able to fight against them and drive them out.’”

¹² God said to Balaam, “Don’t go with them. Don’t curse the people, because they are blessed.”
