Numbers 22

11 ‘Behold, a people has come out of Egypt, and they cover the face of the land. Now come and put a curse on them for me. Perhaps I may be able to fight against them and drive them away.’”
12 But God said to Balaam, “Do not go with them. You are not to curse this people, for they are blessed.”
13 So Balaam got up the next morning and said to Balak’s princes, “Go back to your homeland, because the LORD has refused to let me go with you.”
14 And the princes of Moab arose, returned to Balak, and said, “Balaam refused to come with us.”
