Returning, he found Balac standing by his burnt-offering, with all the princes of the Moabites.
And the Lord put the word in his mouth, and said: Return to Balac, and thus shalt thou speak.
And taking up his parable, he said: Balac king of the Moabites hath brought me from Aram, from the mountains of the east: Come, said he, and curse Jacob: Make haste and detest Israel.
And there were found sons of Levi by their names, Gerson and Caath and Merari.
