Verse 24 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.
