Numbers 22:4 in Context — Numbers 22
2 Balak, fils de Tsippor, vit tout ce qu’Israël avait fait aux Amoréens.
3 Et Moab fut très effrayé en face d’un peuple aussi nombreux, il fut saisi de terreur en face des enfants d’Israël.
4 Moab dit aux anciens de Madian: Cette multitude va dévorer tout ce qui nous entoure, comme le bœuf broute la verdure des champs. Balak, fils de Tsippor, était alors roi de Moab.
5 Il envoya des messagers auprès de Balaam, fils de Beor, à Pethor sur le fleuve, dans le pays des fils de son peuple, afin de l’appeler et de lui dire: Voici, un peuple est sorti d’Égypte, il couvre la surface de la terre, et il habite vis-à-vis de moi.
6 Viens, je te prie, maudis-moi ce peuple, car il est plus puissant que moi; peut-être ainsi pourrai-je le battre et le chasserai-je du pays, car je sais que celui que tu bénis est béni, et que celui que tu maudis est maudit.
