‏ Numbers 22:16-17

v. 16-17: The messengers urgently ask Balaam to let nothing stop him from coming—not even God or his own conscience. Balak offers Balaam great honor and promises to give him anything he wants. This shows how far people will go to get what they desire, and how tempting it can be to do wrong for money or fame (Numbers 22:16-17 a).
