Então proferiu Balaão a sua parábola, dizendo: De Arã me mandou trazer Balaque, o rei de Moabe, desde as montanhas do Oriente, dizendo: Vem, amaldiçoa-me a Jacó; vem, denuncia a Israel.
And he took up his parable, and said, Balak the king of Moab hath brought me from Aram, out of the mountains of the east, saying, Come, curse me Jacob, and come, defy Israel.
