Numbers 24:12-14

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹² And Balaam said to Balak, “Did I not tell your messengers whom you sent to me, ¹³ ‘If Balak should give me his house full of silver and gold, I would not be able to go beyond the word of the Lord, to do either good or bad of my own will; what the Lord speaks, that will I speak’? ¹⁴ And now, behold, I am going to my people; come, I will let you know what this people will do to your people in the latter days.”
