Numbers 22:38-40

New King James Version

³⁸ And Balaam said to Balak, “Look, I have come to you! Now, have I any power at all to say anything? ^(A)The word that God puts in my mouth, that I must speak.” ³⁹ So Balaam went with Balak, and they came to Kirjath Huzoth. ⁴⁰ Then Balak offered oxen and sheep, and he sent some to Balaam and to the princes who were with him.
