14 And he brought H3947 him into the field H7704 of Zophim, H6839 H6822 to the top H7218 of Pisgah, H6449 and built H1129 seven H7651 altars, H4196 and offered H5927 a bullock H6499 and a ram H352 on every altar. H4196
And Balaam H1109 said H559 unto Balak, H1111 Build H1129 me here seven H7651 altars, H4196 and prepare H3559 me here seven H7651 oxen H6499 and seven H7651 rams. H352 And Balak H1111 did H6213 as Balaam H1109 had spoken; H1696 and Balak H1111 and Balaam H1109 offered H5927 on every altar H4196 a bullock H6499 and a ram. H352
Get thee up H5927 into the top H7218 of Pisgah, H6449 and lift up H5375 thine eyes H5869 westward, H3220 and northward, H6828 and southward, H8486 and eastward, H4217 and behold H7200 it with thine eyes: H5869 for thou shalt not go over H5674 this Jordan. H3383
And all the plain H6160 on this side H5676 Jordan H3383 eastward, H4217 even unto the sea H3220 of the plain, H6160 under the springs H794 of Pisgah. H6449
Hear H8085 the word H1697 of the LORD, H3068 ye rulers H7101 of Sodom; H5467 give ear H238 unto the law H8451 of our God, H430 ye people H5971 of Gomorrah. H6017 To what H4100 purpose is the multitude H7230 of your sacrifices H2077 unto me? saith H559 the LORD: H3068 I am full H7646 of the burnt offerings H5930 of rams, H352 and the fat H2459 of fed beasts; H4806 and I delight H2654 not in the blood H1818 of bullocks, H6499 or of lambs, H3532 or of he goats.
