So he went to a bare hill.King James Version

Chapter 23
1Then Balaam said to King Balak, 'Build me seven altars here, and prepare seven young bulls and seven rams for me to sacrifice.' 2Balak followed his instructions, and the two of them sacrificed a young bull and a ram on each altar.
3Then Balaam said to Balak, 'Stand here by your burnt offerings, and I will go to see if the Lord will respond to me. Then I will tell you whatever he reveals to me.' So Balaam went alone to the top of a bare hill,
4and God met him there. Balaam said to him, 'I have prepared seven altars and have sacrificed a young bull and a ram on each altar.'
