And Elohim came to Bil‛am at night and said to him, “If the men come to call you, rise and go with them, but only the word which I speak to you that you do.”
And the Messenger of יהוה said to Bil‛am, “Go with the men, but only the word that I speak to you, that you speak.” Bil‛am then went with the heads of Balaq.
And he said to Balaq, “Stand here by your ascending offering while I meet over there.”
So he went to him and saw him standing by his ascending offering, and the heads of Mo’aḇ with him. And Balaq asked him, “What did יהוה say?”
And יהוה put a word in the mouth of Bil‛am, and said, “Return to Balaq, and this is what you say.”
And when Bil‛am saw that it pleased יהוה to bless Yisra’ĕl, he did not go as at other times, to seek to use sorcery, but he set his face toward the wilderness.
I shall raise up for them a Prophet like you out of the midst of their brothers. And I shall put My Words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him.
