Numbers 23:7 in Context — Numbers 23
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!
8 Comment maudirais-je celui que Dieu n’a point maudit? Comment serais-je irrité quand l’Éternel n’est point irrité?
9 Je le vois du sommet des rochers, Je le contemple du haut des collines: C’est un peuple qui a sa demeure à part, Et qui ne fait point partie des nations.
