Numbers 22:7 in Context — Numbers 22

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.

7 Les anciens de Moab et les anciens de Madian partirent, ayant avec eux des présents pour le devin. Ils arrivèrent auprès de Balaam, et lui rapportèrent les paroles de Balak.

8 Balaam leur dit: Passez ici la nuit, et je vous donnerai réponse, d’après ce que l’Éternel me dira. Et les chefs de Moab restèrent chez Balaam.

9 Dieu vint à Balaam, et dit: Qui sont ces hommes que tu as chez toi?
