15. And Balaam said to Balak, Stand here by thy burnt-offering, and I will go to meet yonder.
16. And Jehovah met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Return to Balak, and thus shalt thou speak.
17. And he came to him, and behold, he was standing by his burnt-offering, and the princes of Moab with him; and Balak said to him, What has Jehovah spoken?
18. Then he took up his parable and said, Rise up, Balak, and hear! hearken unto me, son of Zippor!
