Numbers 22:8

וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲלֵיהֶ֗ם לִ֤ינוּ פֹה֙ הַלַּ֔יְלָה וַהֲשִׁבֹתִ֤י אֶתְכֶם֙ דָּבָ֔ר כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר יְדַבֵּ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה אֵלָ֑י וַיֵּשְׁב֥וּ שָׂרֵֽי־מֹואָ֖ב עִם־בִּלְעָֽם׃

And he said to them, “Stay here tonight, and I will bring back to you a word, as YHWH speaks to me.” So the princes of Mo’av stayed with Bilʿam.
