Israel Encamped; Moab’s Fear
Numbers 22:1-4
1
Then the people of Isra'el traveled on and camped in the plains of Mo'av beyond the Yarden River, opposite Yericho.
2
Now Balak the son of Tzippor saw all that Isra'el had done to the Emori.
3
Mo'av was very afraid of the people, because there were so many of them; Mo'av was overcome with dread because of the people of Isra'el.
4
So Mo'av said to the leaders of Midyan, "This horde will lick up everything around us, the way an ox licks up grass in the field." Balak the son of Tzippor was king of Mo'av at that time.
