22.7 Divinationis pretium. Alii: Divinacula in artibus, quas curiositas humana composuit. Sunt quædam quæ Scriptura divinacula nominavit. Gentilis autem consuetudo vel tripodas vel cortinas, vel hujusmodi vocabulis appellat, quæ quasi ad hoc consecrata, moveri ab eis et contrectari solent. Sed divina Scriptura Ephod vernaculo sermone nominat in prophetis, quod tradunt esse indumentum prophetantium I Reg. 30.. Aliud tamen in divina Scriptura prophetia, aliud divinatio. Ait enim: Non erit auguratio in Jacob, neque divinatio in Isræl. Abdicatur ergo penitus divinatio, opere enim et ministerio dæmonum impletur. Igitur Balaam acceptis divinaculis, cum solerent ad se dæmones venire, fugatos videt et Deum adesse: quem ideo dicit se interrogare, quia consuetos sibi apparere non videt. Venit ergo Deus ad Balaam, non quia sit dignus, sed ut fugentur illi qui ad maledicendum et malefaciendum adesse consueverant: hinc enim providebat Deus populo suo.
22.7 Divinationis pretium. Alii: Divinacula in artibus, quas curiositas humana composuit. Sunt quædam which Scriptura divinacula nominavit. Gentilis however consuetudo or tripodas or cortinas, or huyusmodi vocabulis appellat, which as_if to hoc consecrata, moveri away eis and contrectari solent. Sed divina Scriptura Ephod vernaculo sermone nominat in prophetis, that tradunt esse indumentum prophetantium I Reg. 30.. Aliud tamen in divina Scriptura prophetia, aliud divinatio. Ait because: Non will_be auguratio in Yacob, neque divinatio in Isræl. Abdicatur ergo penitus divinatio, opere because and ministerio dæmonum impletur. Igitur Balaam acceptis divinaculis, when/with solerent to se dæmones venire, fugatos videt and God adesse: which ideo dicit se interrogare, because consuetos sibi apparere not/no videt. Venit ergo God to Balaam, not/no because sit dignus, but as fugentur illi who to maledicendum and malefaciendum adesse consueverant: hinc because providebat God populo suo.

BrLXX Καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἡ γερουσία Μωὰβ, καὶ ἡ γερουσία Μαδιὰμ, καὶ τὰ μαντεῖα ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν· καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς Βαλαὰμ, καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ τὰ ῥήματα Βαλάκ.
