Balaam said to God, “Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab, has sent me this message:
‘Look, a vast horde of people has arrived from Egypt, and they cover the face of the earth. Come and curse these people for me. Then perhaps I will be able to stand up to them and drive them from the land.’”
That night God came to Balaam and asked him, “Who are these men visiting you?”
All five of the Midianite kings—Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba—died in the battle. They also killed Balaam son of Beor with the sword.
