Forsaking the straight road they have gone astray; they have followed the way of Balaam [the son] of Beor, who loved the reward of wickedness. |
Abandoning the straight road, they went astray, having followed assiduously the road to Balaam, the son of Bosor, who set a high value upon and thus came to love the hire of unrighteousness, |

They have left the straight road and gone astray. They have followed the road that Balaam, the son of Beor, trod, who fell in love with the profits of wrongdoing. |
