Numbers 22:36-38

Evangelical Heritage Version

Balak Meets Balaam

³⁶ When Balak heard that Balaam had come, he went out to meet him at the Moabite town on the Arnon border at the edge of his territory. ³⁷ Balak said to Balaam, “Didn’t I send for you urgently when I summoned you? Why didn’t you come to me? Don’t you know that I can really reward you?”

³⁸ Balaam said to Balak, “Look, I have come to you now. But am I really able to say anything? I will speak only the words that God puts in my mouth.”
