Numbers 24:17-19

Common English Bible

¹⁷ I see him, but not now;
    I look at him, but not nearby.
A star comes from Jacob;
    a scepter arises from Israel,
        smashing Moab’s forehead,
        the head of all the Sethites.
¹⁸ Edom will become a possession,
    Seir a possession of its enemies.
    But Israel acts powerfully.
¹⁹ Someone from Jacob will rule
    and destroy the survivors from Ir.”
