Numbers22
And the children of aIsrael set forward, and pitched in the plains of Moab (who is Moab?) on this side Jordan by Jerico.
2 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all the Israel had done to the Amorites.
3 And Moab was sore agraid of the People, because they were many: and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel.
4. And Moab said unto the elders of Midian "Now shall the companylick 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.
5. He sent messengers therefore unto Balaam the son of Beor to Pethor, which is by the river of the land of the children of his people, to call him, saying. "Behold, there is a People come out from Egypt: behold they cover the face of the earth, and they abide over against me:
6 Come now therefore, I pray thee, curse me this People; for they are too mighty for me: preadventure I shall prevail, that we may smite them, and that I may drive them out of the land: for I wot that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed."
OH, I got it that is why the "dims" the lying liberal left uses a DONKEY?
YOU want to talk about twisting scripture.
Yes it would serve Christians wellllllllll to read about Balaam in all places he is written about, maybe some might get a clue.

Moab was Lot's son/grandson (by his daughter). Ruth was a Moabite.
