Numbers 22:10-12

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹⁰ Balaam replied to God, “Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab, sent this message to me: ¹¹ ‘Look, a people has come out of Egypt, and they cover the surface of the land. Now come and put a curse on them for me. I may be able to fight against them and drive them away.’”

¹² Then God said to Balaam, “You are not to go with them. You are not to curse this people, for they are blessed.”
