Numbers 22:10-12

International Children’s Bible

¹⁰ Balaam said to God, “The king of Moab, Balak son of Zippor, sent them. He sent me this message: ¹¹ ‘A nation has come out of Egypt. They cover the land. So come and put a curse on them. Then maybe I can fight them and force them out of my land.’”

¹² But God said to Balaam, “Do not go with them. Don’t put a curse on those people. I have blessed them.”
