Numbers 24:2-9

2And BalaamH1109 liftedH5375 up his eyesH5869 and sawH7200 IsraelH3478 dwellingH7931 [in tents] according to his tribesH7626; and the SpiritH7307 of 1GodH430 came upon him.

3And he tookH5375 up his parableH4912, and saidH559, BalaamH1109 the sonH1121 of BeorH1160 saith, and the manH1397 of opened eyeH5869 saith,

4He saith, who heareth the wordsH561 of 2GodH410, who seeth the visionH4236 of the AlmightyH7706, who falleth downH5307, and who hath his eyesH5869 open:

5HowH4100 goodly are thy tentsH168, JacobH3290, and thy tabernacles, IsraelH3478!

6Like valleys are they spreadH5186 forth, like gardensH1593 by the riverH5104 side, Like aloe-trees which Jehovah hath plantedH5193, like cedarsH730 beside the watersH4325.

7WaterH4325 shall flowH5140 out of his buckets, and his seedH2233 shall be in greatH7227 watersH4325, And his kingH4428 shall be higherH7311 than AgagH90, and his kingdomH4438 shall be exaltedH7311.

83GodH410 broughtH3318 him out of EgyptH4714; he hath as it were the strength of a buffalo. He shall consumeH398 the nationsH1471 his enemies, and break their bonesH6106, and with his arrowsH2671 shall smite [them] in pieces.

9He stooped, he layH7901 downH7901 like a lionH738, and like a lionessH3833: who will stir him up? BlessedH1288 is he that blesseth thee, and cursedH779 is he that curseth thee.
