Verse 25 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.

Da sprach Balak zu Bileam: Du sollst ihm weder fluchen noch es segnen.
Entonces Balac dijo a Balaam: Ya que no lo maldices, ni tampoco lo bendigas.
Balac le dijo a Balaam: «¡No lo maldigas en absoluto, ni tampoco lo bendigas!».
Balak dit à Balaam: Ne le maudis pas, mais du moins ne le bénis pas.
Allora Balac disse a Balaam: Non maledirlo, ma pure anche non benedirlo.
Então Balaque disse a Balaão: Nem o amaldiçoarás, nem o abençoarás.
