Numbers 22:38

And Balaam said unto Balak, Lo, I am come unto thee: have I now any power at all to say any thing? the word that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak.

And Balaam {H1109} said {H559} unto Balak {H1111}, Lo, I am come {H935} unto thee: have I now any power {H3201} at all {H3201} to say {H1696} any thing {H3972}? the word {H1697} that God {H430} putteth {H7760} in my mouth {H6310}, that shall I speak {H1696}.

Bil'am replied to Balak, "Here, I've come to you! But I have no power of my own to say anything. The word that God puts in my mouth is what I will say."

“See, I have come to you,” Balaam replied, “but can I say just anything? I must speak only the word that God puts in my mouth.”

And Balaam said unto Balak, Lo, I am come unto thee: have I now any power at all to speak anything? the word that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak.
