15 Then Balaam delivered this message:

“This is the message of Balaam, son of Beor.
This is the message of the man whose eyesight is clear.
16 This is the message of the one who hears the words of El,
    receives knowledge from Elyon,
        has a vision from Shadday,
            and falls into a trance with his eyes open:
17 I see someone who is not here now.
    I look at someone who is not nearby.
        A star will come from Jacob.
        A scepter will rise from Israel.
            He will crush the heads of the Moabites
                and destroy all the people of Sheth.[a]
