Numbers 24:15-19

Modern English Version

“The oracle of Balaam the son of Beor,
    and the oracle of the man whose eyes are open;
¹⁶ the oracle of the one hearing the words of God,
    and knowing the knowledge of the Most High,
who sees the vision of the Almighty,
    falling into a trance, but having his eyes open:

¹⁷ “I will see him, but not now;
    I will behold him, but not near;
a star will come out of Jacob,
    and a scepter will rise out of Israel,
and will crush the borderlands of Moab,
    and destroy all the children of Sheth.
¹⁸ Edom will be a possession,
    and Seir, a possession of its enemies,
    while Israel does valiantly.
¹⁹ One out of Jacob shall have dominion,
    and destroy the survivors of the city.”
