Numbers 22:11-13

Common English Bible

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.”

¹³ Then Balaam arose in the morning and said to Balak’s officials, “Go to your land, for the Lord has refused to allow me to go with you.”
