“They are messengers from King Balak of Moab,” Balaam answered. “He sent them
to ask me to go to Moab and place a curse on the people who have come there from Egypt. They have settled everywhere around him, and he wants to drive them out.”
During the night, God asked Balaam, “Who are these people at your house?”
including Balaam son of Beor and the five Midianite kings, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba.
