Numbers 23:8 in Context — Numbers 23
6 E voltou a ele, e eis que estava ele junto a seu holocausto, ele e todos os príncipes de Moabe.
7 E ele tomou sua parábola, e disse: De Arã me trouxe Balaque, rei de Moabe, dos montes do oriente: Vem, amaldiçoa para mim a Jacó; E vem, condena a Israel.
8 Por que amaldiçoarei eu ao que Deus não amaldiçoou? E por que condenarei ao que o SENHOR não condenou?
9 Porque do cume das penhas o verei, E desde as colinas o olharei: Eis aqui um povo que habitará confiante, e não será contado entre as nações.
10 Quem contará o pó de Jacó, Ou o número da quarta parte de Israel? Morra minha pessoa da morte dos corretos, E meu fim seja como o seu.
