And the representatives from Moab got up and went to Balak, and said, “Balaam refused to come with us.”
So Balaam got up in the morning and said to Balak’s representatives, “Go back to your land, for the Lord has refused to let me go with you.”
Then Balak sent representatives once again, more numerous and more distinguished than the previous.
Then Balak said to Balaam, “Did I not urgently send word to you to call for you? Why did you not come to me? Am I really unable to honor you?”
