Numbers 23:10-12

New Life Version

¹⁰ Who can number the dust of Jacob, or number the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of those who are right and good. Let my end be like theirs!”

¹¹ Balak said to Balaam, “What have you done to me? I took you to curse those who hate me. But see, you have asked that good would come to them!” ¹² Balaam answered, “Must I not be careful to speak what the Lord puts in my mouth?”
