Numbers 23:13-15

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

Balaam’s Second Oracle

¹³ So Balak said to him, ‘Come with me to another place from which you may see them; you shall see only part of them, and shall not see them all; then curse them for me from there.’ ¹⁴ So he took him to the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah. He built seven altars, and offered a bull and a ram on each altar. ¹⁵ Balaam said to Balak, ‘Stand here beside your burnt-offerings, while I meet the Lord over there.’
