Numbers 23:19-30
-
19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
-
20 Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it.
-
21 He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel: the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.
-
22 God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn.
-
23 Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought!
-
24 Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.

25 And Balak said unto Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.
-
26 But Balaam answered and said unto Balak, Told not I thee, saying, All that the LORD speaketh, that I must do?
-
27 And Balak said unto Balaam, Come, I pray thee, I will bring thee unto another place; peradventure it will please God that thou mayest curse me them from thence.
-
28 And Balak brought Balaam unto the top of Peor, that looketh toward Jeshimon.
-
29 And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams.
-
30 And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.
