Berean Standard Bible

Numbers 24:1-5

1And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he did not seek omens as on previous occasions, but he turned his face toward the wilderness. 2When Balaam looked up and saw Israel encamped tribe by tribe, the Spirit of God came upon him, 3and he lifted up an oracle, saying:

“This is the prophecy of Balaam son of Beor,the prophecy of a man whose eyes are open,4the prophecy of one who hears the words of God,who sees a vision from the Almighty,1who bows down with eyes wide open:5How lovely are your tents, O Jacob,your dwellings, O Israel!
