Numbers 23:18-24

18Then he tookH5375 up his parableH4912 and saidH559, RiseH6965 up, BalakH1111, and hearH8085! hearken unto me, sonH1121 of ZipporH6834!

191GodH410 is not a manH376, that he should lieH3576; neither a sonH1121 of manH376, that he should repentH5162. Shall he sayH559 and not do? and shall he speakH1696 and not makeH6213 it good?

20Behold, I have receivedH3947 [mission] to blessH1288; and he hath blessedH1288, and I cannot reverse it.

21He hath not beheld iniquity in JacobH3290, neither hath he seenH7200 wrong in IsraelH3478; Jehovah his 2GodH430 is with him, and the shoutH8643 of a kingH4428 is in his midst.

223GodH410 broughtH3318 him out of EgyptH4714; he hath as it were the strength of a buffalo.

23For there is no enchantment against JacobH3290, neither is there any divinationH7081 against IsraelH3478. At this timeH6256 it shall be saidH559 of JacobH3290 and of IsraelH3478, What hath 4GodH410 wrought!

24Lo, the peopleH5971 will riseH6965 up as a lionessH3833, and liftH5375 himself up as a lionH738. He shall not lieH7901 down until he have eatenH398 the preyH2964 and drunkH8354 the bloodH1818 of the slainH2491.
