Numbers 22:5; Numbers 22:7

5 sent messengers to summon Balaam son of Beor, who was at Pethor near the Euphrates River in the land of Amaw. They brought him this message from Balak: "I want you to know that a whole nation has come from Egypt; its people are spreading out everywhere and threatening to take over our land.

7 So the Moabite and Midianite leaders took with them the payment for the curse, went to Balaam, and gave him Balak's message.
