Numbers 23:7-9

Evangelical Heritage Version

From Aram, Balak has brought me.
Balak, the king of Moab from the eastern mountains, said,
“Come, curse Jacob for me.
Come, denounce Israel.”
⁸ How can I curse someone God has not cursed?
How can I denounce someone the Lord has not denounced?
⁹ Yes, from the rocky peaks I see him.
From the hills I look at him.
Look! A people that dwells apart,
that does not consider itself to be one of the nations.
