Jacob, your tents are so fine,
    as well as your dwelling places,[a] O Israel!
They’re spread out like valleys,
    like gardens along river banks,
like aloe planted by the Lord,
    or like cedars beside water.
He will pour water from his buckets,
    and his descendants will stream forth like abundant water.
His king will be more exalted than Agag
    when he exalts his own kingdom.
