38 Balaam said to Balak, "I’ve now come to you. But I’m only able to speak whatever word God gives me to say. That is what I will speak."
39 Then Balaam went with Balak and they came to Kiriath-huzoth.
40 Balak sacrificed oxen and sheep and sent them to Balaam and the officials who were with him.
41 In the morning Balak took Balaam and brought him up to Bamoth-baal, where he could see part of the people.
