Numbers 24:1-5
1When Balaam saw that it 1pleased the Lord to bless Israel, he did not go as at other times to 2seek 3omens, rather he turned his 4attention toward the 5wilderness. 2And Balaam raised his eyes and saw Israel 6camping tribe by tribe; and 7the Spirit of God came upon him. 3Then he took up his discourse and said, “8The declaration of Balaam the son of Beor, And the declaration of the man whose eye is opened;4The declaration of him who 9hears the 10words of God, Who sees the 11vision of 12the Almighty, Falling down, yet having his eyes uncovered,5How pleasant are your tents, Jacob, Your dwelling places, Israel!
