21     He has no regard for evil in Jacob,
and he does not see trouble in Israel;
    Yahweh his God is with him,
and a shout[a] of a king is among them.[b]
22     God, who brings them out from Egypt,
is like the strength[c] of a wild ox for them.[d]
23     Because there is no sorcery against Jacob,
and there is no divination against Israel.
    Now[e] it will be said to Jacob and Israel,
    what God has done!
