14 He took him to the field of Zophim on the top of Mount Pisgah. There also he built seven altars and offered a bull and a ram on each of them.
15 Balaam said to Balak, “Stand here by your burnt offering, and I will meet God over there.”
16 The Lord met Balaam, told him what to say, and sent him back to Balak to give him his message.
17 So he went back and found Balak still standing by his burnt offering, with the leaders of Moab. Balak asked what the Lord had said,
18 and Balaam uttered this prophecy:“Come, Balak son of Zippor,And listen to what I have to say.
19 God is not like men, who lie;He is not a human who changes his mind.Whatever he promises, he does;He speaks, and it is done.
20 I have been instructed to bless,And when God blesses, I cannot call it back.
