Numbers 24:15 - 24:19

Oracle of Balaam

15 Then he took up his discourse and said,

“The oracle of Balaam the son of Beor,

And the oracle of the man whose eye is uncovered,

16

The oracle of him who hears the words of God,

And knows the knowledge of the Most High,

Who beholds the vision of the Almighty,

Falling down, yet having his eyes opened.

17

I see him, but not now;

I behold him, but not near;

A star shall come forth from Jacob,

A scepter shall rise from Israel,

And shall crush through the forehead of Moab,

And tear down all the sons of Sheth.

18

And Edom shall be a possession,

Seir, its enemies, also will be a possession,

While Israel performs valiantly.

19

And one from Jacob shall have dominion,

And will make the survivor perish from the city.”
