Numbers 22:37-39

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁷ And he said to Balaam: I sent messengers to call thee, why didst thou not come immediately to me? was it because I am not able to reward thy coming?

³⁸ He answered him: Lo, here I am: shall I have power to speak any other thing but that which God shall put in my mouth?

³⁹ So they went on together, and came into a city, that was in the uttermost borders of his kingdom.
