Rotherham(i)
5 So he sent messengers unto Balaam son of Boor, to Pethor, which was by the river of the land of the sons of his people, to call him,––saying––Lo! a people, hath come forth out of Egypt, Lo! he hath covered the eye of the land, Yea, he, is tarrying over against me.
6 Now, therefore, do come, I pray thee, curse me this people, For, stronger, he is, than I, If peradventure I prevail, we shall smite him, That I may drive him out of the land,––For I know that, he whom thou dost bless, is to be blessed, And, he whom thou dost curse, is to be cursed.
7 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian, went their way, with the rewards of divination in their hand,––so they came in unto Balaam, and spake unto him the words of Balak.
