וַיֹּ֨אמֶר בִּלְעָ֜ם לְבָלָ֗ק הִתְיַצֵּב֮ עַל־עֹלָתֶךָ֒ וְאֵֽלְכָ֗ה אוּלַ֞י יִקָּרֵ֤ה יְהוָה֙ לִקְרָאתִ֔י וּדְבַ֥ר מַה־יַּרְאֵ֖נִי וְהִגַּ֣דְתִּי לָ֑ךְ וַיֵּ֖לֶךְ שֶֽׁפִי׃
Sinabi ni Balaam kay Balak: “Tumayo ka sa tabi ng iyong handog na susunugin, at ako'y aalis; baka sakaling salubungin ako ng Walang-Hanggan, at anumang salitang ipakita Niya sa akin ay sasabihin ko sa iyo.” At umalis siyang mag-isa.
Targum Jonathan
And Bileam said to Balak, Stand by thy burnt offering, and I will go, if preadventure the Word of the Lord may come to meet me; and the word that shall be discovered to me, that I will declare to thee. And he went, bending as a serpent.
