Fjärde Moseboken 22:4

och sade till de äldste i Midjan: ”Nu kommer denna skara att äta upp allt omkring oss, liksom oxen äter upp gräset på marken.” På den tiden var Balak, Sippors son, kung i Moab.

And Moab said unto the elders of Midian, Now shall this company lick up all that are round about us, as the ox licketh up the grass of the field. And Balak the son of Zippor was king of the Moabites at that time.
