Numbers 24:15-17
English Standard Version
Balaam's Final Oracle
15 (A)And he took up his discourse and said,
“The oracle of Balaam the son of Beor,
the oracle of the man whose eye is opened,
16 the oracle of him who hears the words of God,
and knows the knowledge of (B)the Most High,
who sees the vision of the Almighty,
(C)falling down with his eyes uncovered:
17 (D)I see him, but not now;
I behold him, but not near:
(E)a star shall come out of Jacob,
and (F)a scepter shall rise out of Israel;
it shall (G)crush the forehead[a] of Moab
and break down all the sons of Sheth.
