Numbers 23:1-6

  1. And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams.

  2. And Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bullock and a ram.

  3. And Balaam said unto Balak, Stand by thy burnt offering, and I will go: peradventure the LORD will come to meet me: and whatsoever he sheweth me I will tell thee. And he went to an high place.

  4. And God met Balaam: and he said unto him, I have prepared seven altars, and I have offered upon every altar a bullock and a ram.

  5. And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return unto Balak, and thus thou shalt speak.

  6. And he returned unto him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab.
