Numbers 24:15-19

International Children’s Bible

“This is the message of Balaam son of Beor.
    This is the message of a man who sees clearly.
¹⁶ This is the message of a man who hears the words of God.
    I know the Most High God.
I see a vision from the All-Powerful One.
    My eyes are open as I fall before him.
¹⁷ I see someone who will come some day.
    I see someone who will come, but not soon.
A star will come from Jacob.
    A ruler will rise from Israel.
He will crush the heads of the Moabites.
    He will smash the skulls of the sons of Sheth.
¹⁸ Edom will be conquered.
    His enemy Edom will be conquered.
    But Israel will grow wealthy.
¹⁹ The descendants of Jacob will beat them down.
    The Israelites will destroy those left in the city.”
