And he took up his parable, and said, From Aram hath Balak brought me, The king of Moab from the mountains of the East: Come, curse me Jacob, And come, defy Israel.
And whanne his parable was takun, he seide, Balaach, þe kyng of Moabitis, brouyte me fro Aran, fro þe hillis of þe eest; and he seide, Come thou and curse Jacob; haaste thou, and greetli curse thou Israel.
