Balaam Prepares the First Altar

Numbers 23:1-6
1
And Balaam saith unto Balak, `Build for me in this place seven altars, and make ready for me in this place seven bullocks and seven rams.'
2
And Balak doth as Balaam hath spoken, and Balak--Balaam also--offereth a bullock and a ram on the altar,
3
and Balaam saith to Balak, `Station thyself by thy burnt-offering and I go on, it may be Jehovah doth come to meet me, and the thing which He sheweth me--I have declared to thee;' and he goeth to a high place.
4
And God cometh unto Balaam, and he saith unto Him, `The seven altars I have arranged, and I offer a bullock and a ram on the altar;'
5
and Jehovah putteth a word in the mouth of Balaam, and saith, `Turn back unto Balak, and thus thou dost speak.'
6
And he turneth back unto him, and lo, he is standing by his burnt-offering, he and all the princes of Moab.
