Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

23.11 What it_is hoc? Balac on_the_contrary spem benedictiones for maledictionibus audiens, and ultra not/no ferens, prophetantis words interrupit. ID. Non vult amarus king benedictionem, but maledicta quærit: it_is because about cognatione illius cui it_is_said: Maledictus you away to_all bestiis terræ Gen. 3.. Dixit therefore Balac. Putat him perterritum Isrælis multitudine, and ideo not/no ausum maledicere, and mutationem loci sibi prodesse.
23:1-30 As a diviner, Balaam performed rituals to interpret omens and ascertain Israel’s future (cp. 23:23; 24:1). Balak had summoned him to pronounce imprecations, but God repeatedly prohibited him from doing so.
• It is possible that these sacrifices were connected with the practice of extispicy—the examination of animal livers or other organs for an omen concerning the future. According to ancient Near Eastern texts, this form of fortune-telling was a widely practiced and highly developed art. Such practices were banned from Israel (see Deut 18:9-14; cp. Ezek 21:21).

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Bālāq to/towards Bilˊām what? you(ms)_have_done/made to=me to,curse enemies,my brought,you and=see/lo/see! bless to_bless )
Balak uses this question to scold Balaam. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “I cannot believe you did this to me!”
