37 Wathi uBhalaki kuBhileham, Andikuthumelanga na ndiqinisile ukuba ndikubize? Yini na ukuba ungezi kum? Ndihleli nje, andinako na ukukuzikisa?
38 Wathi uBhileham kuBhalaki, Uyabona, ndifikile kuwe; ndinako na ke ngoku ukuthetha into eyiyo? Ilizwi alibekayo uThixo emlonyeni wam, ndiya kuthetha lona.
39 Wahamba uBhileham noBhalaki, bafika eKiriyati-hutsoti.
40 Wabingelela uBhalaki iinkomo nempahla emfutshane, wathumela kuBhileham nakubathetheli ababenaye.
41 Kwathi ngomso, uBhalaki wamthabatha uBhileham, wamnyusa wamsa ezigangeni zikaBhahali.* Wabona khona wada wesa ekupheleni kwabantu.
