Numbers 22:11-13

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹¹ “Look, a people has come out of Egypt, and they cover the surface of the land. Now come and put a curse on them for me. I may be able to fight against them and drive them away.” ’

¹² Then God said to Balaam, ‘You are not to go with them. You are not to curse this people, for they are blessed.’

¹³ So Balaam got up the next morning and said to Balak’s officials, ‘Go back to your land, because the Lord has refused to let me go with you.’
