Numbers 23
- 1 And Balaam said to Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams.
- 2 And Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on [every] altar a bullock and a ram.
- 3 And Balaam said to Balak, Stand by thy burnt-offering, and I will go: it may be the LORD will come to meet me: and whatever he showeth me I will tell thee. And he went to a high place.
- 4 And God met Balaam: and he said to him, I have prepared seven altars, and I have offered upon [every] altar a bullock and a ram.
- 5 And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return to Balak, and thus thou shalt speak.
- 6 And he returned to him and lo, he stood by his burnt-sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab.
- 7 And he took up his parable, and said, Balak the king of Moab hath brought me from Aram, out of the mountains of the east, [saying], Come, curse Jacob for me, and come, defy Israel.
- 8 How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defy, [whom] the LORD hath not defied?
- 9 For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: lo, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.
- 10 Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth [part] of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!
- 11 And Balak said to Balaam, What hast thou done to me? I took thee to curse my enemies, and behold, thou hast blessed [them] altogether.
- 12 And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD hath put in my mouth?
- 13 And Balak said to him, Come, I pray thee, with me to another place, from whence thou mayest see them: thou shalt see but the utmost part of them, and shalt not see them all: and from thence curse them for me.
- 14 And he brought him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bullock and a ram on [every] altar.
- 15 And he said to Balak, Stand here by thy burnt-offering, while I meet [the LORD] yonder.
- 16 And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Go again to Balak, and say thus.
- 17 And when he came to him, behold, he stood by his burnt-offering, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said to him, What hath the LORD spoken?
- 18 And he took up his parable, and said, Rise, Balak, and hear; hearken to 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 spoke, and shall he not make it good?
- 20 Behold, I have received [commandment] to bless: and he hath blessed, and I cannot reverse it.
- 21 He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel; the LORD his God [is] with him, and the shout of a king [is] among them.
- 22 God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of a unicorn.
- 23 Surely [there is] no enchantment against Jacob, neither [is there] any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought!
- 24 Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he shall eat [of] the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.
- 25 And Balak said to Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.
- 26 But Balaam answered and said to Balak, Did I not tell thee, saying, All that the LORD speaketh, that I must do?
- 27 And Balak said to Balaam, Come, I pray thee, I will bring thee to another place; perhaps it will please God that thou mayest from thence curse them for me.
- 28 And Balak brought Balaam to the top of Peor, that looketh towards Jeshimon.
- 29 And Balaam said to Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams.
- 30 And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a ram on [every] altar.

Webster Bible Electronic Format.
PUBLIC DOMAIN
February 1992
Beginning in July of 1991 the task of placing the Webster Bible text in electronic format began. The original purpose was to provide Larry Pierce, who produces the On-Line Bible program, with a more modern *public domain* text, similar in content and style to the AV but with a grammar that would provide better comprehension in todays English.
I plan on maintaining an accurate copy of the Webster text. Anyone finding an error should contact me; Anyone desiring to obtain the latest, most correct text, can find it on the Bible Foundation BBS, or can contact me in the following methods:

I would like to thank the Bible Foundation not only for scanning nearly the entire Webster Bible but for encouraging me to undertake this monumental work; particularly around page 20 when I realized what I had gotten myself into. Special thanks to Jerry Kingery of the Bible Foundation for scanning, and Jerry Hastings for doing some preliminary scan cleaning and making the texts available on the BBS.- Direction: LTR
