And Balak said unto Balaam, Come, I pray thee, I will bring thee unto another place; peradventure it will please God that thou mayest curse me them from thence.

Verse 27 is found in chapter 23 of Numbers. Balak attempts a third setting to obtain a word favorable to his purposes, but Balaam again pronounces a blessing. The vision describes Israel as an established and blessed people and uses images of abundance, strength, and prosperity. The unity between the end of Numbers 23 and the beginning of 24 shows that Balak’s preparations result in an increasingly explicit declaration of divine blessing upon Israel.

Balak sprach zu ihm: Komm doch, ich will dich an einen Ort führen, ob's vielleicht Gott gefalle, daß du daselbst mir sie verfluchst.
Y dijo Balac a Balaam: Ruégote que vengas, te llevaré a otro lugar; por ventura parecerá bien a Dios que desde allí me lo maldigas.
Balac le dijo a Balaam: «Ven, por favor; te llevaré a otro lugar. Quizá le parezca bien a Dios que desde allí me lo maldigas».
Balak dit à Balaam: Viens donc, je te mènerai dans un autre lieu; peut être Dieu trouvera-t-il bon que de là tu me maudisses ce peuple.
E Balac disse a Balaam: Deh! vieni, io ti menerò in un altro luogo; forse piacerà a Dio che di là tu mel maledica.
Disse mais Balaque a Balaão: Ora vem, e te levarei a outro lugar; porventura bem parecerá aos olhos de Deus que dali mo amaldiçoes.
