## Numbers 22:12-14 in Context (Verses 9–17 KJV)
 
 [9 ](/kjv/numbers/22/9) And God came unto Balaam, and said, What men *are* these with thee?
 
 [10 ](/kjv/numbers/22/10) And Balaam said unto God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto me, *saying*,
 
 [11 ](/kjv/numbers/22/11) Behold, *there is* a people come out of Egypt, which covereth the face of the earth: come now, curse me them; peradventure I shall be able to overcome them, and drive them out.*
 
 [12 ](/kjv/numbers/22/12) And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people: for they *are* blessed.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/numbers/22/13) 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.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/numbers/22/14) And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and said, Balaam refuseth to come with us.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/numbers/22/15) ¶ And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable than they.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/numbers/22/16) And they came to Balaam, and said to him, Thus saith Balak the son of Zippor, Let nothing, I pray thee, hinder thee from coming unto me:*
 
 [17 ](/kjv/numbers/22/17) For I will promote thee unto very great honour, and I will do whatsoever thou sayest unto me: come therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people.
