Numbers 23:11


Numbers 23:10 Numbers 23:11 (KJV) Numbers 23:12
Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth [part] of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!
And Balak said unto Balaam, What hast thou done unto me? I took thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast blessed [them] altogether.
And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD hath put in my mouth?
