³⁵ The ·angel [messenger] of the Lord said to Balaam, “Go with these men, but say only what I tell you.” So Balaam went with Balak’s leaders.

³⁶ When Balak heard that Balaam was coming, he went out to meet him at Ar in Moab, which was beside the Arnon, at the edge of his ·country [boundary]. ³⁷ Balak said to Balaam, “·I had asked you before [^LDid I not send for you…?] to come quickly. Why didn’t you come to me? ·I am [^LAm I not…?] able to ·reward you well [give you wealth].”
