He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel: the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.

Verse 21 is found in chapter 23 of Numbers. Balak takes Balaam to another place and again asks him to curse Israel. The second oracle insists that God does not change his word capriciously or behave like a human who promises and later changes his mind. Israel’s security is not based on its moral perfection, but on God’s faithfulness to what he has determined concerning the people.

Man sieht keine Mühe in Jakob und keine Arbeit in Israel. Der HERR, sein Gott, ist bei ihm und das Drommeten des Königs unter ihm.
No ha notado iniquidad en Jacob, Ni ha visto perversidad en Israel: Jehová su Dios es con él, Y júbilo de rey en él.
Il n'aperçoit point d'iniquité en Jacob, Il ne voit point d'injustice en Israël; L'Eternel, son Dieu, est avec lui, Il est son roi, l'objet de son allégresse.
Egli non iscorge iniquità in Giacobbe, E non vede perversità in Israele. Il Signore Iddio suo è con lui, E fra esso v’è un grido di trionfo reale.
Não viu iniqüidade em Israel, nem contemplou maldade em Jacó; o SENHOR seu Deus é com ele, e no meio dele se ouve a aclamação de um rei.
他未見 雅各 中有災難 , 也未見 以色列 中有禍患 。 耶和華-他的上帝和他同在; 在他中間有歡呼王的聲音。
