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 whatever he shows me I will tell thee. And thus he went alone.
