巴勒對巴蘭說：「你這是做什麽？我請你來咒詛我的仇敵，你竟祝福他們！」

巴勒对巴兰说：“你向我做的是什么事呢？我领你来咒诅我的仇敌，不料，你竟为他们祝福。”

巴勒对巴兰说：“你向我做的是什么呢？我带你来诅咒我的仇敌，看哪，你竟为他们祝福。”

巴勒对巴兰说：“你向我做的是什么呢？我带你来诅咒我的仇敌，看哪，你竟为他们祝福。”

巴勒对巴兰说：“你这是做什么？我请你来咒诅我的仇敌，你竟祝福他们！”

巴勒对巴兰说：“你向我作的是什么事呢？我领你来咒诅我的仇敌，你反倒给他们祝福。”

巴勒對巴蘭說：「你向我做的是甚麼事呢？我領你來咒詛我的仇敵，不料，你竟為他們祝福。」

巴勒對巴蘭說：「你向我做的是甚麼呢？我帶你來詛咒我的仇敵，看哪，你竟為他們祝福。」

巴勒對巴蘭說：「你向我做的是甚麼呢？我帶你來詛咒我的仇敵，看哪，你竟為他們祝福。」

巴勒對巴蘭說：“你向我作的是甚麼事呢？我領你來咒詛我的仇敵，你反倒給他們祝福。”

巴勒對巴蘭說：『你待我的是怎麼回事呢？我領你來咒詛我的仇敵；你看，你竟全給他們祝福了！』

巴勒謂巴蘭曰、爾於我何為、我召爾詛敵、爾竟祝之、

巴勒謂巴蘭曰、惡、是何言與、我召爾詛敵、爾反祝之。

巴勒謂巴蘭曰、爾向我如此行何耶、我召爾咒詛我敵、爾反為之祝福、

Balak said to Balaam,“ What have you done to me? I brought you to curse my enemies, but you have done nothing but bless them!”

Balak said to Balaam,“ What have you done to me? I brought you here to put a curse on my enemies! But all you have done is give them a blessing!”

And Balak said to Balaam,“ What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and behold, you have done nothing but bless them.”

Then King Balak demanded of Balaam,“ What have you done to me? I brought you to curse my enemies. Instead, you have blessed them!”

“ What have you done to me?” Balak asked Balaam.“ I brought you to curse my enemies, but look, you have only blessed them!”

Then Balak said to Balaam,“ What have you done to me? I took you to put a curse on my enemies, but behold, you have actually blessed them!”

Then Balak said to Balaam,“ What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and look, you have blessed them bountifully!”

And Balak said unto Balaam, What hast thou done unto me? I took thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast blessed them altogether.

“ What have you done to me?” Balak asked Balaam.“ I brought you to curse my enemies, but look, you have only blessed them!”

And Balak said unto Balaam, What hast thou done unto me? I took thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast blessed[ them] altogether.

Then Balak said to Balaam,“ What have you done to me? I brought you to curse my enemies, but on the contrary you have only blessed them!”

Balak said to Balaam,“ What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and behold, you have blessed them altogether.”

巴勒聽了大怒，用力擊掌，對巴蘭說：「我請你來咒詛我的仇敵，你竟三次祝福他們。

因為他們沒有用食物和水接待以色列人，還雇巴蘭咒詛他們，但我們的上帝將咒詛變為祝福。

前來告訴我說，『有一個民族從埃及鋪天蓋地而來。請你去咒詛那民族，這樣巴勒王或許能擊敗他們，把他們趕走。』」

他喜歡咒詛人，願咒詛臨到他；他不喜歡祝福人，願祝福遠離他。他咒詛成性，願咒詛如水侵入他的身體，如油浸透他的骨頭。願咒詛不離其身，如同身上的衣服和腰間的帶子。願耶和華這樣報應那些誣告我，以惡言攻擊我的人。

巴蘭以詩歌預言說：「巴勒引我出亞蘭，摩押王請我出東山，說，『來為我咒詛雅各，斥責以色列！』上帝沒有咒詛的，我怎能咒詛？耶和華沒有斥責的，我怎能斥責？

他必有重賞。你要什麼都可以，只求你去為他咒詛那民族。」
