Judges 11:25
What! are you any better than Balak, the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever take up a cause against Israel or make war against them?

--------------------

Joshua 24:9
Then Balak, the son of Zippor, king of Moab, went up to war against Israel; and he sent for Balaam, the son of Beor, to put a curse on you:

Deuteronomy 23:3
No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their people to the tenth generation may come into the meeting of the Lord's people:

Deuteronomy 23:4
Because they gave you no bread or water on your way, when you came out of Egypt: and they got Balaam, the son of Peor, from Pethor in Aram-naharaim to put curses on you.

Numbers 22:16
And they came to Balaam and said, Balak, son of Zippor, says, Let nothing keep you from coming to me:

Numbers 22:17
For I will give you a place of very great honour, and whatever you say to me I will do; so come, in answer to my prayer, and put a curse on this people.

Numbers 22:18
But Balaam, in answer; said to the servants of Balak, Even if Balak gave me his house full of silver and gold, it would not be possible for me to do anything more or less than the orders of the Lord my God.

Numbers 22:19
So take your rest here this night, till I have knowledge what more the Lord has to say to me.

Numbers 22:20
And that night God came to Balaam and said to him, If these men have come for you, go with them: but do only what I say to you.

Numbers 22:2
Now Balak, the son of Zippor, saw what Israel had done to the Amorites.

Micah 6:5
O my people, keep in mind now what was designed by Balak, king of Moab, and the answer which Balaam, son of Beor, gave him; the events, from Shittim to Gilgal, so that you may be certain of the upright acts of the Lord.

Numbers 22:4
Then Moab said to the responsible men of Midian, It is clear that this great people will be the destruction of everything round us, making a meal of us as the ox does of the grass of the field. At that time Balak, the son of Zippor, was king of Moab.

Numbers 22:5
So he sent men to Balaam, son of Beor, at Pethor by the River in the land of the children of his people, saying to him, See, a people has come out of Egypt, covering all the face of the earth, and they have put up their tents opposite to me:

Numbers 22:6
Come now, in answer to my prayer, and put a curse on this people, for they are greater than I: and then I may be strong enough to overcome them and send them out of the land: for it is clear that good comes to him who has your blessing, but he on whom you put your curse is cursed.

Numbers 22:7
So the responsible men of Moab and Midian went away, taking in their hands rewards for the prophet; and they came to Balaam and said to him what Balak had given them orders to say.

Numbers 22:8
And he said to them, Take your rest here tonight, and I will give you an answer after hearing what the Lord says; so the chiefs of Moab kept there with Balaam that night.

Numbers 22:9
And God came to Balaam and said, Who are these men with you?

Numbers 22:10
And Balaam said to God, Balak, the son of Zippor, king of Moab, has sent them to me, saying,

Numbers 22:11
See, the people who have come out of Egypt are covering all the earth: now, put a curse on this people for me, so that I may be able to make war on them, driving them out of the land.

Numbers 22:12
And God said to Balaam, You are not to go with them, or put a curse on this people, for they have my blessing.

Numbers 22:13
In the morning Balaam got up and said to the chiefs of Balak, Go back to your land, for the Lord will not let me go with you.

Numbers 22:14
So the chiefs of Moab went back to Balak and said, Balaam will not come with us.

Numbers 22:15
So Balak sent more chiefs, greater in number and of higher position than the others.

Numbers 22:21
So in the morning Balaam got up and, making his ass ready, went with the chiefs of Moab.

Numbers 21:26
For Heshbon was the town of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who had made war against an earlier king of Moab and taken from him all his land as far as the Arnon.

Numbers 21:27
So the makers of wise sayings say, Come to Heshbon, building up the town of Sihon and making it strong:

Numbers 21:28
For a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the town of Sihon: for the destruction of Ar in Moab, and the lords of the high places of the Arnon.

Numbers 21:29
Sorrow is yours, O Moab! Destruction is your fate, O people of Chemosh: his sons have gone in flight, and his daughters are prisoners, in the hands of Sihon, king of the Amorites.

Numbers 21:30
They are wounded with our arrows; destruction has come on Heshbon, even to Dibon; and we have made the land waste as far as Nophah, stretching out to Medeba.

Deuteronomy 2:19
And when you come near the land of the children of Ammon, give them no cause of trouble and do not make war on them, for I will not give you any of the land of the children of Ammon for your heritage: because I have given it to the children of Lot.
