4. Mosebok 22,2

1 Israelittene dro til Moabs sletter og slo leir ved Jordan, rett overfor Jeriko.

Balak, Sippors sønn, så alt det Israel hadde gjort med amorittene.

3 Moab ble svært redd for folket, for de var mange; Moab ble fylt med frykt på grunn av israelittene.

4 Moabittene sa til de eldste i Midjan: «Denne flokken vil fortære alt rundt oss, slik en okse eter opp gresset på marken.» Balak, Sippors sønn, var konge i Moab på den tiden.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
