16. And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Return unto Balak, and thus shalt thou speak.
17. And he came to him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said unto him, What hath the LORD spoken?
18. And he took up his parable, and said, Rise up, Balak, and hear; Hearken unto me, thou son of Zippor:
19. God is not a man, that he should lie; Neither the son of man, that he should repent: Hath he said, and shall he not do it? Or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
