New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Numbers 23
20 "Behold, I have received a command to bless; When He has blessed, then I cannot revoke it.
21 "He has not observed misfortune in Jacob; Nor has He seen trouble in Israel; The Lord his God is with him, And the shout of a king is among them.
22 "God brings them out of Egypt, He is for them like the horns of the wild ox.
23 "For there is no omen against Jacob, Nor is there any divination against Israel; At the proper time it shall be said to Jacob And to Israel, what God has done!
24 "Behold, a people rises like a lioness, And as a lion it lifts itself; It will not lie down until it devours the prey, And drinks the blood of the slain."
25 Then Balak said to Balaam, "Do not curse them at all nor bless them at all!"
26 But Balaam replied to Balak, "Did I not tell you, ’Whatever the Lord speaks, that I must do’?"
27 Then Balak said to Balaam, "Please come, I will take you to another place; perhaps it will be agreeable with God that you curse them for me from there."
28 So Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor which overlooks the wasteland.
29 Balaam said to Balak, "Build seven altars for me here and prepare seven bulls and seven rams for me here."
30 Balak did just as Balaam had said, and offered up a bull and a ram on each altar.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
