Chp. 23 verse 18 - Chp. 24 verse 20: Once again Bilaam blesses the Jews instead of cursing them. Balak takes him to another location hoping that he would be more successful there. Bilaam then instructs him to build another seven alters and he sacrifices a bull and a ram on each. Chp. 24, Bilaam tries another method in the hope of being able to outsmart G-d and curse the Jews. Balak is furious and tells Bilaam to hurry back to his home. He reminds Balak that he had told him initially that he could only say what Hashem would tell him to say. He then gives him advice on how to make the Jews stumble through harlotry which is despicable in the eyes of Hashem. Bilaam then tells him a prophecy concerning the end of days.
