Numbers 23:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Then he uttered his [a]parable, and said, Balak the king of Moab hath brought me from [b]Aram out of the mountains of the East, saying, Come, curse Jacob for my sake: come, and [c]detest Israel.
8 How shall I curse, where God hath not cursed? or how shall I detest, where the Lord hath not detested?
9 For from the top of the rocks I did see him, and from the hills I did behold him: lo, the people shall dwell by themselves, and shall not be reckoned among the [d]nations.
