Numbers 23:5 in Context — Numbers 23
3 Balaam dit à Balak: Tiens-toi près de ton holocauste, et je m’éloignerai; peut-être que l’Éternel viendra à ma rencontre, et je te dirai ce qu’il me révélera. Et il alla sur un lieu élevé.
4 Dieu vint au-devant de Balaam, et Balaam lui dit: J’ai dressé sept autels, et j’ai offert un taureau et un bélier sur chaque autel.
5 L’Éternel mit des paroles dans la bouche de Balaam, et dit: Retourne vers Balak, et tu parleras ainsi.
6 Il retourna vers lui; et voici, Balak se tenait près de son holocauste, lui et tous les chefs de Moab.
7 Balaam prononça son oracle, et dit: Balak m’a fait descendre d’Aram, Le roi de Moab m’a fait descendre des montagnes de l’Orient. Viens, maudis-moi Jacob! Viens, sois irrité contre Israël!
