Numbers 22:5 (YLT) Young's Literal Translation

1 And the sons of Israel journey and encamp in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan, by Jericho.
2 And Balak son of Zippor seeth all that Israel hath done to the Amorite,
3 and Moab is exceedingly afraid of the presence of the people, for it is numerous; and Moab is vexed by the presence of the sons of Israel,
4 and Moab saith unto the elders of Midian, `Now doth the assembly lick up all that is round about us, as the ox licketh up the green thing of the field.` And Balak son of Zippor is king of Moab at that time,
5 and he sendeth messengers unto Balaam son of Beor, to Pethor, which is by the River of the land of the sons of his people, to call for him, saying, `Lo, a people hath come out of Egypt; lo, it hath covered the eye of the land, and it is abiding over-against me;
6 and now, come, I pray thee, curse for me this people, for it is mightier than I; it may be I prevail -- we smite it -- and I cast it out from the land; for I have known -- that which thou blessest is blessed, and that which thou cursest is cursed.`
7 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian go, and divinations in their hand, and they come in unto Balaam, and speak unto him the words of Balak,
8 and he saith unto them, `Lodge here to-night, and I have brought you back word, as Jehovah speaketh unto me;` and the princes of Moab abide with Balaam.
9 And God cometh in unto Balaam, and saith, `Who are these men with thee?`
10 And Balaam saith unto God, `Balak, son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto me:
11 Lo, the people that is coming out from Egypt and covereth the eye of the land, -- now come, pierce it for me; it may be I am able to fight against it, and have cast it out;`
12 and God saith unto Balaam, `Thou dost not go with them; thou dost not curse the people; for it is blessed.`
13 And Balaam riseth in the morning, and saith unto the princes of Balak, `Go unto your land, for Jehovah is refusing to suffer me to go with you;`
14 and the princes of Moab rise, and come in unto Balak, and say, `Balaam is refusing to come with us.`
15 And Balak addeth yet to send princes, more numerous and honoured than these,
16 and they come in unto Balaam, and say to him, `Thus said Balak son of Zippor, Be not, I pray thee, withheld from coming unto me,
17 for very greatly I honour thee, and all that thou sayest unto me I do; and come, I pray thee, pierce for me this people.`
18 And Balaam answereth and saith unto the servants of Balak, `If Balak doth give to me the fulness of his house of silver and gold, I am not able to pass over the command of Jehovah my God, to do a little or a great thing;
19 and, now, abide, I pray you, in this place, you also, to-night; and I know what Jehovah is adding to speak with me.`
20 And God cometh in unto Balaam, by night, and saith to him, `If to call for thee the men have come, rise, go with them, and only the thing which I speak unto thee -- it thou dost do.`
21 And Balaam riseth in the morning, and saddleth his ass, and goeth with the princes of Moab,
22 and the anger of God burneth because he is going, and a messenger of Jehovah stationeth himself in the way for an adversary to him, and he is riding on his ass, and two of his servants are with him,
23 and the ass seeth the messenger of Jehovah standing in the way, and his drawn sword in his hand, and the ass turneth aside out of the way, and goeth into a field, and Balaam smiteth the ass to turn it aside into the way.
24 And the messenger of Jehovah standeth in a narrow path of the vineyards -- a wall on this side and a wall on that --
25 and the ass seeth the messenger of Jehovah, and is pressed unto the wall, and presseth Balaam`s foot unto the wall, and he addeth to smite her;
26 and the messenger of Jehovah addeth to pass over, and standeth in a strait place where there is no way to turn aside -- right or left --
27 and the ass seeth the messenger of Jehovah, and croucheth under Balaam, and the anger of Balaam burneth, and he smiteth the ass with a staff.
28 And Jehovah openeth the mouth of the ass, and she saith to Balaam, `What have I done to thee that thou hast smitten me these three times?`
29 and Balaam saith to the ass, `Because thou hast rolled thyself against me; oh that there were a sword in my hand, for now I had slain thee;`
30 and the ass saith unto Balaam, `Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden since I was thine unto this day? have I at all been accustomed to do to thee thus?` and he saith, `No.`
31 And Jehovah uncovereth the eyes of Balaam, and he seeeth the messenger of Jehovah standing in the way, and his drawn sword in his hand, and he boweth and doth obeisance, to his face;
32 and the messenger of Jehovah saith unto him, `Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass these three times? lo, I -- I have come out for an adversary, for thy way hath been perverse before me,
33 and the ass seeth me, and turneth aside at my presence these three times; unless she had turned aside from my presence, surely now also, thee I had slain, and her kept alive.`
34 And Balaam saith unto the messenger of Jehovah, `I have sinned, for I did not know that thou art standing to meet me in the way; and now, if evil in thine eyes -- I turn back by myself.`
35 And the messenger of Jehovah saith unto Balaam, `Go with the men; and only the word which I speak unto thee -- it thou dost speak;` and Balaam goeth with the princes of Balak.
36 And Balak heareth that Balaam hath come, and goeth out to meet him, unto a city of Moab, which is on the border of Arnon, which is in the extremity of the border;
37 and Balak saith unto Balaam, `Did I not diligently sent unto thee to call for thee? why didst thou not come unto me? am I not truly able to honour thee?`
38 And Balaam saith unto Balak, `Lo, I have come unto thee; now -- am I at all able to speak anything? the word which God setteth in my mouth -- it I do speak.`
39 And Balaam goeth with Balak, and they come to Kirjath-Huzoth,
40 and Balak sacrificeth oxen and sheep, and sendeth to Balaam, and to the princes who are with him;
41 and it cometh to pass in the morning, that Balak taketh Balaam, and causeth him to go up the high places of Baal, and he seeth from thence the extremity of the people.
1 And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 set forward, H5265 and pitched H2583 in the plains H6160 of Moab H4124 on this side H4480 H5676 Jordan H3383 by Jericho. H3405
2 And Balak H1111 the son H1121 of Zippor H6834 saw H7200 H853 all H3605 that H834 Israel H3478 had done H6213 to the Amorites. H567
3 And Moab H4124 was sore afraid H1481 H3966 of H4480 H6440 the people, H5971 because H3588 they H1931 were many: H7227 and Moab H4124 was distressed H6973 because H4480 H6440 of the children H1121 of Israel. H3478
4 And Moab H4124 said H559 unto H413 the elders H2205 of Midian, H4080 Now H6258 shall this company H6951 lick up H3897 H853 all H3605 that are round about H5439 us , as the ox H7794 licketh up H3897 H853 the grass H3418 of the field. H7704 And Balak H1111 the son H1121 of Zippor H6834 was king H4428 of the Moabites H4124 at that H1931 time. H6256
5 He sent H7971 messengers H4397 therefore unto H413 Balaam H1109 the son H1121 of Beor H1160 to Pethor, H6604 which H834 is by H5921 the river H5104 of the land H776 of the children H1121 of his people, H5971 to call H7121 him, saying, H559 Behold, H2009 there is a people H5971 come out H3318 from Egypt H4480 H4714 : behold, H2009 they cover H3680 H853 the face H5869 of the earth, H776 and they H1931 abide H3427 over against H4480 H4136 me:
6 Come H1980 now H6258 therefore , I pray thee, H4994 curse H779 me H853 this H2088 people; H5971 for H3588 they H1931 are too mighty for H6099 H4480 me: peradventure H194 I shall prevail, H3201 that we may smite H5221 them , and that I may drive them out H1644 of H4480 the land: H776 for H3588 I know H3045 H853 that he whom H834 thou blessest H1288 is blessed, H1288 and he whom H834 thou cursest H779 is cursed. H779
7 And the elders H2205 of Moab H4124 and the elders H2205 of Midian H4080 departed H1980 with the rewards of divination H7081 in their hand; H3027 and they came H935 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 and spoke H1696 unto H413 him the words H1697 of Balak. H1111
8 And he said H559 unto H413 them, Lodge H3885 here H6311 this night, H3915 and I will bring H7725 you word H1697 again, as H834 the LORD H3068 shall speak H1696 unto H413 me : and the princes H8269 of Moab H4124 abode H3427 with H5973 Balaam. H1109
9 And God H430 came H935 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 and said, H559 What H4310 men H376 are these H428 with H5973 thee?
10 And Balaam H1109 said H559 unto H413 God, H430 Balak H1111 the son H1121 of Zippor, H6834 king H4428 of Moab, H4124 hath sent H7971 unto H413 me, saying ,
11 Behold H2009 , there is a people H5971 come out H3318 of Egypt H4480 H4714 , which covereth H3680 H853 the face H5869 of the earth: H776 come H1980 now, H6258 curse H6895 me them; peradventure H194 I shall be able H3201 to overcome H3898 them , and drive them out. H1644
12 And God H430 said H559 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 Thou shalt not H3808 go H1980 with H5973 them ; thou shalt not H3808 curse H779 H853 the people: H5971 for H3588 they H1931 are blessed. H1288
13 And Balaam H1109 rose up H6965 in the morning, H1242 and said H559 unto H413 the princes H8269 of Balak, H1111 Get H1980 you into H413 your land: H776 for H3588 the LORD H3068 refuseth H3985 to give me leave H5414 to go H1980 with H5973 you.
14 And the princes H8269 of Moab H4124 rose up, H6965 and they went H935 unto H413 Balak, H1111 and said, H559 Balaam H1109 refuseth H3985 to come H1980 with H5973 us.
15 And Balak H1111 sent H7971 yet H5750 again H3254 princes, H8269 more, H7227 and more honorable H3513 than they H4480 H428 .
16 And they came H935 to H413 Balaam, H1109 and said H559 to him, Thus H3541 saith H559 Balak H1111 the son H1121 of Zippor, H6834 Let nothing, H408 I pray thee, H4994 hinder H4513 thee from coming H4480 H1980 unto H413 me:
17 For H3588 I will promote thee unto very great honor H3513 H3513, H3966 and I will do H6213 whatsoever H3605 H834 thou sayest H559 unto H413 me: come H1980 therefore , I pray thee, H4994 curse H6895 me H853 this H2088 people. H5971
18 And Balaam H1109 answered H6030 and said H559 unto H413 the servants H5650 of Balak, H1111 If H518 Balak H1111 would give H5414 me his house H1004 full H4393 of silver H3701 and gold, H2091 I cannot H3201 H3808 go beyond H5674 H853 the word H6310 of the LORD H3068 my God, H430 to do H6213 less H6996 or H176 more. H1419
19 Now H6258 therefore , I pray you, H4994 tarry H3427 ye H859 also H1571 here H2088 this night, H3915 that I may know H3045 what H4100 the LORD H3068 will say H1696 unto H5973 me more. H3254
20 And God H430 came H935 unto H413 Balaam H1109 at night, H3915 and said H559 unto him, If H518 the men H376 come H935 to call H7121 thee , rise up, H6965 and go H1980 with H854 them ; but yet H389 H853 the word H1697 which H834 I shall say H1696 unto H413 thee , that shalt thou do. H6213
21 And Balaam H1109 rose up H6965 in the morning, H1242 and saddled H2280 H853 his ass, H860 and went H1980 with H5973 the princes H8269 of Moab. H4124
22 And God's H430 anger H639 was kindled H2734 because H3588 he H1931 went: H1980 and the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 stood H3320 in the way H1870 for an adversary H7854 against him . Now he H1931 was riding H7392 upon H5921 his ass, H860 and his two H8147 servants H5288 were with H5973 him.
23 And the ass H860 saw H7200 H853 the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 standing H5324 in the way, H1870 and his sword H2719 drawn H8025 in his hand: H3027 and the ass H860 turned aside H5186 out of H4480 the way, H1870 and went H1980 into the field: H7704 and Balaam H1109 smote H5221 H853 the ass, H860 to turn H5186 her into the way. H1870
24 But the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 stood H5975 in a path H4934 of the vineyards, H3754 a wall H1447 being on this side H4480 H2088 , and a wall H1447 on that side H4480 H2088 .
25 And when the ass H860 saw H7200 H853 the angel H4397 of the LORD, H3068 she thrust herself H3905 unto H413 the wall, H7023 and crushed H3905 H853 Balaam's H1109 foot H7272 against H413 the wall: H7023 and he smote H5221 her again. H3254
26 And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 went H5674 further, H3254 and stood H5975 in a narrow H6862 place, H4725 where H834 was no H369 way H1870 to turn H5186 either to the right hand H3225 or to the left. H8040
27 And when the ass H860 saw H7200 H853 the angel H4397 of the LORD, H3068 she fell down H7257 under H8478 Balaam: H1109 and Balaam's H1109 anger H639 was kindled, H2734 and he smote H5221 H853 the ass H860 with a staff. H4731
28 And the LORD H3068 opened H6605 H853 the mouth H6310 of the ass, H860 and she said H559 unto Balaam, H1109 What H4100 have I done H6213 unto thee, that H3588 thou hast smitten H5221 me these H2088 three H7969 times H7272 ?
29 And Balaam H1109 said H559 unto the ass, H860 Because H3588 thou hast mocked H5953 me : I would H3863 there were H3426 a sword H2719 in mine hand, H3027 for H3588 now H6258 would I kill H2026 thee.
30 And the ass H860 said H559 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 Am not H3808 I H595 thine ass, H860 upon H5921 which H834 thou hast ridden H7392 ever since H4480 H5750 I was thine unto H5704 this H2088 day H3117 ? was I ever wont H5532 H5532 to do H6213 so H3541 unto thee? And he said, H559 Nay. H3808
31 Then the LORD H3068 opened H1540 H853 the eyes H5869 of Balaam, H1109 and he saw H7200 H853 the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 standing H5324 in the way, H1870 and his sword H2719 drawn H8025 in his hand: H3027 and he bowed down his head, H6915 and fell flat H7812 on his face. H639
32 And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 him, Wherefore H5921 H4100 hast thou smitten H5221 H853 thine ass H860 these H2088 three H7969 times H7272 ? behold, H2009 I H595 went out H3318 to withstand H7854 thee, because H3588 thy way H1870 is perverse H3399 before H5048 me:
33 And the ass H860 saw H7200 me , and turned H5186 from H6440 me these H2088 three H7969 times: H7272 unless H194 she had turned H5186 from H4480 H6440 me, surely H3588 now H6258 also H1571 I had slain H2026 thee , and saved her alive H2421 H853 .
34 And Balaam H1109 said H559 unto H413 the angel H4397 of the LORD, H3068 I have sinned; H2398 for H3588 I knew H3045 not H3808 that H3588 thou H859 stoodest H5324 in the way H1870 against H7125 me: now H6258 therefore, if H518 it displease H7489 H5869 thee , I will get me back again. H7725
35 And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 Go H1980 with H5973 the men: H376 but only H657 H853 the word H1697 that H834 I shall speak H1696 unto H413 thee , that thou shalt speak. H1696 So Balaam H1109 went H1980 with H5973 the princes H8269 of Balak. H1111
36 And when Balak H1111 heard H8085 that H3588 Balaam H1109 was come, H935 he went out H3318 to meet H7125 him unto H413 a city H5892 of Moab, H4124 which H834 is in H5921 the border H1366 of Arnon, H769 which H834 is in the utmost H7097 coast. H1366
37 And Balak H1111 said H559 unto H413 Balaam, H1109 Did I not H3808 earnestly send H7971 H7971 unto H413 thee to call H7121 thee? wherefore H4100 camest H1980 thou not H3808 unto H413 me? am I not able H3201 H3808 indeed H552 to promote thee to honor H3513 ?
38 And Balaam H1109 said H559 unto H413 Balak, H1111 Lo, H2009 I am come H935 unto H413 thee : have I now H6258 any power at all H3201 H3201 to say H1696 any thing H3972 ? the word H1697 that H834 God H430 putteth H7760 in my mouth, H6310 that shall I speak. H1696
39 And Balaam H1109 went H1980 with H5973 Balak, H1111 and they came H935 unto Kirjath- H7155 huzoth.
40 And Balak H1111 offered H2076 oxen H1241 and sheep, H6629 and sent H7971 to Balaam, H1109 and to the princes H8269 that H834 were with H854 him.
41 And it came to pass H1961 on the morrow, H1242 that Balak H1111 took H3947 H853 Balaam, H1109 and brought him up H5927 into the high places H1116 of Baal, H1168 that thence H4480 H8033 he might see H7200 the utmost H7097 part of the people. H5971
