Numbers 23:7
Thomson 1808
and he took up his parable, and said:
I am called from Mesopotamia by Balak—
By the king of Moab from the mountains of the east,
Come, saith he, Curse Jacob for me,
And, come, for me devote Israel.
Brenton 1851
And he took up his parable, and said, Balac king of Moab sent for me out of Mesopotamia, out of the mountains of the east, saying, Come, curse me Jacob, and Come, call for a curse for me upon Israel.

Καὶ ἀναλαβὼν τὴν παραβολὴν αὐτοῦ, εἶπεν ἐκ Μεσοποταμίας μετεπέμψατό με Βαλὰκ βασιλεὺς Μωὰβ ἐξ ὀρέων ἀπʼ ἀνατολῶν, λέγων, δεῦρο ἄρασαί μοι τὸν Ἰακώβ, καὶ δεῦρο ἐπικατάρασαί μοι τὸν Ἰσραήλ.
