And he rose in the morning and said to the princes: Go into your country, because the Lord hath forbid me to come with you.
And the Lord thy God would not hear Balaam: and he turned his cursing into thy blessing, because he loved thee.
The princes returning said to Balac: Balaam would not come with us.
And God said to Balaam: Thou shalt not go with them, nor shalt thou curse the people: because it is blessed.
