< Numbers 24 >
1 And when Balaam saw that it pleased God to bless Israel, he did not go according to his custom to meet the omens, but turned his face toward the wilderness.
And he saw Balaam that it was good in [the] eyes of Yahweh to bless Israel and not he went as time on time to meet omens and he set to the wilderness face his.
2 And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and sees Israel encamped by their tribes; and the Spirit of God came upon him.
And he lifted up Balaam eyes his and he saw Israel dwelling to tribes its and it came on him [the] spirit of God.
3 And he took up his parable and said, Balaam son of Beor says, the man who sees truly says,
And he lifted up oracle his and he said [the] utterance of Balaam son his Beor and [the] utterance of the man opened of the eye.
4 he says who hears the oracle of the Mighty One, who saw a vision of God in sleep; his eyes were opened:
[the] utterance of [the] [one who] hears [the] words of God who vision of [the] Almighty he sees [who] falls down and [who] is uncovered of eyes.
5 How goodly [are] your habitations, Jacob, and your tents, Israel!
How! they are good tents your O Jacob dwelling places your O Israel.
6 as shady groves, and as gardens by a river, and as tents which God pitched, and as cedars by the waters.
Like wadis [which] they are stretched out like gardens at a river like aloes [which] he has planted Yahweh like cedars at waters.
7 There shall come a man out of his seed, and he shall rule over many nations; and the kingdom of Gog shall be exalted, and his kingdom shall be increased.
It will flow water from buckets its and offspring its [will be] in waters many and he may be high more than Agag king its so it may be exalted kingdom its.
8 God led him out of Egypt; he has as it were the glory of a unicorn: he shall consume the nations of his enemies, and he shall drain their marrow, and with his darts he shall shoot through the enemy.
God [is] bringing out it from Egypt like [the] horns of a wild ox [belong] to him it will consume nations opponents its and bones their it will break and arrows its it will wound [them].
9 He lay down, he rested as a lion, and as a young lion; who shall stir him up? they that bless you are blessed, and they that curse you are cursed.
It crouched it lay down like a lion and like a lion who? will he rouse it [those who] bless you [be] blessed and [those who] curse you [be] cursed.
10 And Balac was angry with Balaam, and clapped his hands together; and Balac said to Balaam, I called you to curse my enemy, and behold you have decidedly blessed [him] this third time.
And it burned [the] anger of Balak on Balaam and he clapped hands his and he said Balak to Balaam to curse enemies my I summoned you and here! you have blessed actually this three times.
11 Now therefore flee to your place: I said, I will honor you, but now the Lord has deprived you of glory.
And therefore flee for yourself to place your I said surely I will honor you and here! he has withheld you Yahweh from honor.
12 And Balaam said to Balac, Did I not speak to your messengers also whom you sent to me, saying,
And he said Balaam to Balak ¿ not also to messengers your whom you sent to me did I speak saying.
13 If Balac should give me his house full of silver and gold, I shall not be able to transgress the word of the Lord to make it good or bad by myself; whatever things God shall say, them will I speak.
If he will give to me Balak [the] fullness of house his silver and gold not I will be able to transgress [the] mouth of Yahweh by doing a good thing or a bad thing from own heart my [that] which he will speak Yahweh it I will speak.
14 And now, behold, I return to my place; come, I will advise you of what this people shall do to your people in the last days.
And now here I [am] about to go to people my come! I will advise you [that] which it will do the people this to people your at [the] end of the days.
15 And he took up his parable and said, Balaam the son of Beor says, the man who sees truly says,
And he lifted up oracle his and he said [the] utterance of Balaam son his Beor and [the] utterance of the man opened of the eye.
16 hearing the oracles of God, receiving knowledge from the Most High, and having seen a vision of God in sleep; his eyes were opened.
[the] utterance of [the] [one who] hears [the] words of God and [the] [one who] knows [the] knowledge of [the] Most High vision of [the] Almighty he sees [who] falls down and [who] is uncovered of eyes.
17 I will point to him, but not now; I bless him, but he draws not near: a star shall rise out of Jacob, a man shall spring out of Israel; and shall crush the princes of Moab, and shall spoil all the sons of Seth.
I see him and not now I observe him and not near it will march forth a star from Jacob and it will arise a scepter from Israel and it will shatter [the] corners of Moab and it will destroy all [the] descendants of Sheth.
18 And Edom shall be an inheritance, and Esau his enemy shall be an inheritance [of Israel], and Israel wrought valiantly.
And it will be Edom a possession and it will be a possession Seir enemies its and Israel [will be] doing strength.
19 And [one] shall arise out of Jacob, and destroy out of the city him that escapes.
And he will rule from Jacob and he will destroy [the] survivor[s] from a city.
20 And having seen Amalec, he took up his parable and said, Amalec [is] the first of the nations; yet his seed shall perish.
And he saw Amalek and he lifted up oracle his and he said [was the] first of [the] nations Amalek and end its [will be] to destruction.
21 And having seen the Kenite, he took up his parable and said, your dwelling-place [is] strong; yet though you should put your nest in a rock,
And he saw the Kenite[s] and he lifted up oracle his and he said [is] enduring dwelling your and [is] set in the rock nest your.
22 and though Beor should have a skillfully contrived hiding-place, the Assyrians shall carry you away captive.
That except it will become consuming [the] Kenite[s] until when? Asshur will it take captive you.
23 And he looked upon Og, and took up his parable and said, Oh, oh, who shall live, when God shall do these things?
And he lifted up oracle his and he said woe! who? will he live from when ordains it God.
24 And one shall come forth from the hands of the Citians, and shall afflict Assur, and shall afflict the Hebrews, and they shall perish together.
And ships [will be] from [the] hand of Kittim and they will afflict Asshur and they will afflict Eber and also it [will be] to destruction.
25 And Balaam rose up and departed and returned to his place, and Balac went to his own home.
And he arose Balaam and he went and he returned to place his and also Balak he went to way his.
