Numbers 23:8-11

ISV(i) 8 But how can I curse those whom God hasn’t cursed? How can I denounce those whom the LORD hasn’t denounced? 9 I saw them from the top of the rocks. I watched them from the hills. Truly this is a people that lives by itself and doesn’t matter among the nations. 10 Who can count the dust of Jacob? Who can number the dust of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and may I end up like him.”
11 “What are you doing to me?” Balak asked Balaam. “I brought you to curse my enemies, not pronounce a blessing!”
