So he wentbackwith him, and atebreadin his houseand drankwater.
and he criedto the manof Godwhocamefrom Judah,saying,"Thussaysthe LORD,'Becauseyou have disobeyedthe commandof the LORD,and have not observedthe commandmentwhichthe LORDyour Godcommandedyou,
Then the LORDmetBalaamand puta wordin his mouthand said,"Returnto Balak,and thusyou shall speak."
Then the LORDputa wordin Balaam'smouthand said,"Returnto Balak,and you shall speakthus."
The oracleof him who hearsthe wordsof God,Whoseesthe visionof the Almighty,Fallingdown,yet having his eyesuncovered,
"Manywill sayto Me on that day,'Lord,Lord,did we not prophesyin Your name,and in Your namecastout demons,and in Your nameperformmanymiracles?'
Nowhe did not saythison his own initiative,but beinghigh priestthat year,he prophesiedthat Jesuswas goingto diefor the nation,
IfI have[the gift of] prophecy,and knowallmysteriesand allknowledge;and ifI haveallfaith,soas to removemountains,but do not havelove,I amnothing.
