Numbers 24:17-19

New Catholic Bible

^{17     [a]}I see him, but not now.
    I behold him, but not near.
A star comes forth from Jacob,
    and a scepter rises out of Israel.
He will crush the brow of Moab,
    he will destroy the children of Seth.
¹⁸ Edom^[b] will become a possession,
    and Seir also will become a possession of its enemies,
    but Israel will grow strong.
¹⁹ A ruler will come out of Jacob,
    he will destroy the remnant of the city.”
