³ Then Balaam said, “Wait here beside your offerings, and I'll go somewhere to be alone. Maybe the Lord will appear to me. If he does, I will tell you everything he says.” And he left.

⁴ When God appeared to him, Balaam said, “I have built seven altars and have sacrificed a bull and a ram on each one.”

⁵ The Lord gave Balaam a message, then sent him back to tell Balak.
