11. Balak said, “What are you doing? I asked you to come and place a curse on my enemies. But you have blessed them instead!”
12. Balaam answered, “I can say only what the Lord tells me.”
13. Balak said to Balaam, “Let's go somewhere else. Perhaps if you see a smaller part of the Israelites, you will be able to curse them for me.”
14. So he took Balaam to a field on top of Mount Pisgah where lookouts were stationed. Then he built seven altars there and sacrificed a bull and a ram on each one.
