WORD Research this...Numbers 23
- 1 And Balaam said to Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams.
- 2 And Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bullock and a ram.
- 3 And Balaam said to Balak, Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go: peradventure the LORD will come to meet me: and whatever he shows me I will tell you. And he went to an high place.
- 4 And God met Balaam: and he said to him, I have prepared seven altars, and I have offered on every altar a bullock and a ram.
- 5 And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak.
- 6 And he returned to him, and, see, he stood by his burnt sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab.
- 7 And he took up his parable, and said, Balak the king of Moab has brought me from Aram, out of the mountains of the east, saying, Come, curse me Jacob, and come, defy Israel.
- 8 How shall I curse, whom God has not cursed? or how shall I defy, whom the LORD has not defied?
- 9 For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: see, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.
- 10 Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!
- 11 And Balak said to Balaam, What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and, behold, you have blessed them altogether.
- 12 And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD has put in my mouth?
- 13 And Balak said to him, Come, I pray you, with me to another place, from from where you may see them: you shall see but the utmost part of them, and shall not see them all: and curse me them from there. ¶
- 14 And he brought him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.
- 15 And he said to Balak, Stand here by your burnt offering, while I meet the LORD yonder.
- 16 And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Go again to Balak, and say thus.
- 17 And when he came to him, behold, he stood by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said to him, What has the LORD spoken?
- 18 And he took up his parable, and said, Rise up, Balak, and hear; listen to me, you son of Zippor:
- 19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: has he said, and shall he not do it? or has he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
- 20 Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he has blessed; and I cannot reverse it.
- 21 He has not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither has he seen perverseness in Israel: the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.
- 22 God brought them out of Egypt; he has as it were the strength of an unicorn.
- 23 Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What has God worked!
- 24 Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain. ¶
- 25 And Balak said to Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.
- 26 But Balaam answered and said to Balak, Told not I you, saying, All that the LORD speaks, that I must do? ¶
- 27 And Balak said to Balaam, Come, I pray you, I will bring you to another place; peradventure it will please God that you may curse me them from there.
- 28 And Balak brought Balaam to the top of Peor, that looks toward Jeshimon.
- 29 And Balaam said to Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams.
- 30 And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.

American King James Version (akjv - 2.1)
2023-12-27English (en)
American King James Version
Produced by Stone Engelbrite
This is a new translation of the Bible, based on the original King James Version. It is a simple word for word update from the King James English. I have taken care to change nothing doctrinely, but to simply update the spelling and vocabulary. I have not changed the grammar because that could alter it doctrinely.
I am hereby putting the American King James version of the Bible into the public domain on November 8, 1999.

Basic Hash Usage Explained
At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.
We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.
Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.
Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.
Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.
The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.
We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
