Numbers 24

1And when BalaamH1109 sawH7200 that it pleasedH5869 the LORDH3068 to blessH1288 IsraelH3478, he wentH1980 notH3808, as at the otherH6471 timesH6471, to meetH6440 with enchantments, but he setH7896 his faceH6440 towardH413 the wildernessH4057. 2And BalaamH1109 liftedH5375 upH5375 his eyesH5869, and he sawH7200 IsraelH3478 dwellingH7931 accordingH5921 to their tribesH7626; and the spiritH7307 of GodH430 cameH1961 uponH5921 him. 3And he tookH5375 upH5375 his parableH4912, and saidH559, BalaamH1109 the sonH1121 of BeorH1160 saith, And the manH1397 whoseH1121 eyeH5869 was closed saith: 4He saith, whichH834 heareth the wordsH561 of GodH410, WhichH834 seeth the visionH4236 of the AlmightyH7706, FallingH5307 downH5307, and having his eyesH5869 openH1540: 5HowH4100 goodly are thy tentsH168, O JacobH3290, Thy tabernacles, O IsraelH3478! 6As valleysH5158 are they spreadH5186 forth, As gardensH1593 by the riverH5104 side, As lign-aloes whichH4325 the LORDH3068 hath plantedH5193, As cedarH730 trees besideH5921 the watersH4325. 7WaterH4325 shall flowH5140 from his bucketsH1805, And his seedH2233 shall be in manyH7227 watersH4325, And his kingH4428 shall be higherH7311 thanH4428 AgagH90, And his kingdomH4438 shall be exaltedH7311. 8GodH410 bringeth him forthH3318 outH3318 of EgyptH4714; He hath as it were the strengthH6106 of the wild-ox: He shall eatH398 upH398 the nationsH1471 his adversaries, And shall break their bonesH6106 in pieces, And smite them throughH4272 with his arrowsH2671. 9He couched, he layH7901 downH7901 as a lionH738, And as a lionessH3833; who shall rouseH6965 him upH6965? BlessedH1288 be every one that blesseth thee, And cursedH779 be every one that curseth thee. 10And Balak’sH1111 angerH639 was kindledH2734 againstH413 BalaamH1109, and he smoteH5606 his handsH3709 togetherH5606: and BalakH1111 saidH559 unto BalaamH1109, I calledH7121 thee to curseH6895 mine enemiesH341, and, beholdH2009, thou hast altogether blessedH1288 them theseH2088 threeH7969 timesH6471. 11Therefore nowH6258 fleeH1272 thou to thy placeH4725: I thoughtH559 to promote thee unto great honour; but, loH2009, the LORDH3068 hath keptH4513 thee backH4513 from honour. 12And BalaamH1109 saidH559 unto BalakH1111, Spake I notH3808 also to thy messengersH4397 whichH834 thou sentest unto meH413, sayingH559, 13IfH518 BalakH1111 would giveH5414 meH5414 his houseH1004 fullH4393 of silverH3701 and goldH2091, I cannotH3808 goH5674 beyondH3808 the wordH6310 of the LORDH3068, to doH6213 eitherH518 goodH2896 or badH7451 of mine own mindH3820; whatH834 the LORDH3068 speaketh, that will I speakH1696? 14And nowH6258, beholdH2005, I goH1980 unto my peopleH5971: comeH1980, and I will advertise thee whatH834 this peopleH5971 shall doH6213 to thy peopleH5971 in the latterH319 daysH3117. 15And he tookH5375 upH5375 his parableH4912, and saidH559, BalaamH1109 the sonH1121 of BeorH1160 saith, And the manH1397 whoseH1121 eyeH5869 was closed saith: 16He saith, whichH5869 heareth the wordsH561 of GodH410, And knoweth the knowledgeH1847 of the Most High, WhichH5869 seeth the visionH4236 of the AlmightyH7706, FallingH5307 downH5307, and having his eyesH5869 openH1540: 17I seeH7200 him, but notH3808 nowH6258: I beholdH7200 him, but notH3808 nigh: There shall comeH6965 forth a starH3556 outH7200 of JacobH3290, And a sceptre shall riseH6965 outH7200 of IsraelH3478, And shall smite throughH3605 the cornersH6285 of MoabH4124, And break downH1869 allH3605 the sonsH1121 of tumult. 18And EdomH123 shall be a possession, SeirH8165 also shall be a possession, which were his enemiesH341; WhileH1961 IsraelH3478 doeth valiantlyH2428. 19And outH6 of JacobH3290 shall one have dominionH7287, And shall destroyH6 the remnantH8300 from the cityH5892. 20And he lookedH7200 on AmalekH6002, and tookH5375 upH5375 his parableH4912, and saidH559, AmalekH6002 was the firstH7225 of the nationsH1471; But his latterH319 endH319 shall comeH319 to destructionH8. 21And he lookedH7200 on the KeniteH7017, and tookH5375 upH5375 his parableH4912, and saidH559, Strong is thy dwellingH4186 placeH7760, And thy nestH7064 is setH7760 in the rockH5553. 22NeverthelessH3588 KainH7014 shall be wasted, UntilH5704 AsshurH804 shall carry thee awayH7617 captiveH7617. 23And he tookH5375 upH5375 his parableH4912, and saidH559, AlasH188, who shall liveH2421 when GodH410 doeth this? 24But shipsH6716 shall come from the coastH3027 of KittimH3794, And they shall afflictH6031 AsshurH804, and shall afflictH6031 EberH5677, And he also shall come to destructionH8. 25And BalaamH1109 roseH6965 upH6965, and wentH1980 and returnedH7725 to his placeH4725: and BalakH1111 also wentH1980 his wayH1870.
