Numbers 22:18

¹⁸Odpovídaje pak Balám, řekl služebníkům Balákovým: Byť mi pak dal Balák plný dům svůj stříbra a zlata, nemohl bych přestoupiti slova Hospodina Boha svého, a učiniti proti němu malé neb veliké věci.

Numbers 22 introduces the enigmatic figure of Balaam, a non-Israelite prophet hired by Balak, king of Moab, to curse the advancing Israelites. Despite Balak's persistent attempts and lavish offers, God repeatedly intervenes, first by speaking through Balaam's donkey and then by directly controlling Balaam's words. This chapter highlights God's sovereignty over human intentions and His unwavering commitment to His covenant people, even when faced with external opposition and spiritual manipulation.
