“And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his way.”
Then Balaam got up and went back to his place; and Balak also went his way — the narrative of Balaam concludes with departures. Balaam returns to Pethor; Balak returns to Moab. Their encounter is ended; no relationship persists. Balaam has delivered God's word; the intention to curse has been inverted to blessing. The final verdict belongs to God, not to human will or hired magic.
