Numbers 22:37 in Context — Numbers 22

35 E o anjo do SENHOR disse a Balaão: Vai com esses homens: porém a palavra que eu te disser, essa falarás. Assim Balaão foi com os príncipes de Balaque.

36 E ouvindo Balaque que Balaão vinha, saiu a recebê-lo à cidade de Moabe, que está junto ao termo de Arnom, que é a extremidade das fronteiras.

37 E Balaque disse a Balaão: Não enviei eu a ti a chamar-te? por que não vieste a mim? não posso eu te honrar?

38 E Balaão respondeu a Balaque: Eis que eu vim a ti: mas poderei agora falar alguma coisa? A palavra que Deus puser em minha boca, essa falarei.

39 E foi Balaão com Balaque, e vieram à Quiriate-Huzote.
