Numbers 23:7-9

Complete Jewish Bible

“Balak, the king of Mo’av,
brings me from Aram, from the eastern hills, saying,
‘Come, curse Ya‘akov for me;
come and denounce Isra’el.’

⁸ “How am I to curse
those whom God has not cursed?
How am I to denounce
those whom Adonai has not denounced?

⁹ “From the top of the rocks I see them,
from the hills I behold them —
yes, a people that will dwell alone
and not think itself one of the nations.
