And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and said, Balaam refuseth to come with us.
And Balaam rose up in the morning, and said unto the princes of Balak, Get you into your land: for the LORD refuseth to give me leave to go with you.
And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable than they.
And Balak said unto Balaam, Did I not earnestly send unto thee to call thee? wherefore camest thou not unto me? am I not able indeed to promote thee to honour?
