Numbers 23:10 Context
8How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defie, whom the Lord hath not defied? 9For from the top of the rockes I see him, and from the hilles I behold him: loe, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not bee reckoned among the nations. 10Who can count the dust of Iacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Let mee die the death of the righteous, & let my last end be like his. 11And Balak saide vnto Balaam, What hast thou done vnto me? I tooke thee to curse mine enemies, and behold, thou hast blessed them altogether. 12And he answered, and said, Must I not take heede to speake that which the Lord hath put in my mouth?
