And when BalaamH1109 sawH7200 that it pleasedH5869+H2895 the LORDH3068 to blessH1288 IsraelH3478, he wentH1980 not, as at other timesH6471, to seekH7125 for enchantmentsH5173, but he setH7896 his faceH6440 toward the wildernessH4057. {to seek…: Heb. to the meeting of}
And BalaamH1109 lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869, and he sawH7200 IsraelH3478 abidingH7931 in his tents according to their tribesH7626; and the spiritH7307 of GodH430 came upon him.
And he took upH5375 his parableH4912, and saidH559, BalaamH1109 the sonH1121 of BeorH1160 hath saidH5002, and the manH1397 whose eyesH5869 are openH8365 hath saidH5002: {whose…: Heb. who had his eyes shut, but now opened}
He hath saidH5002, which heardH8085 the wordsH561 of GodH410, which sawH2372 the visionH4236 of the AlmightyH7706, fallingH5307 into a trance, but having his eyesH5869 openH1540:
How goodlyH2895 are thy tentsH168, O JacobH3290, and thy tabernaclesH4908, O IsraelH3478!
As the valleysH5158 are they spread forthH5186, as gardensH1593 by the river's sideH5104, as the trees of lign aloesH174 which the LORDH3068 hath plantedH5193, and as cedar treesH730 beside the watersH4325.
He shall pourH5140 the waterH4325 outH5140 of his bucketsH1805, and his seedH2233 shall be in manyH7227 watersH4325, and his kingH4428 shall be higherH7311 than AgagH90, and his kingdomH4438 shall be exaltedH5375.
GodH410 brought him forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714; he hath as it were the strengthH8443 of an unicornH7214: he shall eat upH398 the nationsH1471 his enemiesH6862, and shall breakH1633 their bonesH6106, and pierceH4272 them through with his arrowsH2671.
He couchedH3766, he lay downH7901 as a lionH738, and as a great lionH3833: who shall stir him upH6965? BlessedH1288 is he that blessethH1288 thee, and cursedH779 is he that cursethH779 thee.
And Balak'sH1111 angerH639 was kindledH2734 against BalaamH1109, and he smoteH5606 his handsH3709 togetherH5606: and BalakH1111 saidH559 unto BalaamH1109, I calledH7121 thee to curseH6895 mine enemiesH341, and, behold, thou hast altogetherH1288 blessedH1288 them these threeH7969 timesH6471.
Therefore now fleeH1272 thou to thy placeH4725: I thoughtH559 to promoteH3513 thee unto greatH3513 honourH3513; but, lo, the LORDH3068 hath kept thee backH4513 from honourH3519.
And BalaamH1109 saidH559 unto BalakH1111, SpakeH1696 I not also to thy messengersH4397 which thou sentestH7971 unto me, sayingH559,
If BalakH1111 would giveH5414 me his houseH1004 fullH4393 of silverH3701 and goldH2091, I cannotH3201 go beyondH5674 the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068, to doH6213 either goodH2896 or badH7451 of mine own mindH3820; but what the LORDH3068 saithH1696, that will I speakH1696?
And now, behold, I goH1980 unto my peopleH5971: comeH3212 therefore, and I will advertiseH3289 thee what this peopleH5971 shall doH6213 to thy peopleH5971 in the latterH319 daysH3117.
And he took upH5375 his parableH4912, and saidH559, BalaamH1109 the sonH1121 of BeorH1160 hath saidH5002, and the manH1397 whose eyesH5869 are openH8365 hath saidH5002:
He hath saidH5002, which heardH8085 the wordsH561 of GodH410, and knewH3045 the knowledgeH1847 of the most HighH5945, which sawH2372 the visionH4236 of the AlmightyH7706, fallingH5307 into a trance, but having his eyesH5869 openH1540:
I shall seeH7200 him, but not now: I shall beholdH7789 him, but not nighH7138: there shall comeH1869 a StarH3556 out of JacobH3290, and a SceptreH7626 shall riseH6965 out of IsraelH3478, and shall smiteH4272 the cornersH6285 of MoabH4124, and destroyH6979 all the childrenH1121 of ShethH8352+H8351. {smite…: or, smite through the princes of}
And EdomH123 shall be a possessionH3424, SeirH8165 also shall be a possessionH3424 for his enemiesH341; and IsraelH3478 shall doH6213 valiantlyH2428.
Out of JacobH3290 shall come he that shall have dominionH7287, and shall destroyH6 him that remainethH8300 of the cityH5892.
And when he lookedH7200 on AmalekH6002, he took upH5375 his parableH4912, and saidH559, AmalekH6002 was the firstH7225 of the nationsH1471; but his latterH319 end shall be that he perishH8 for everH5703. {the nations: the nations that warred against Israel} {that…: or, even to destruction}
And he lookedH7200 on the KenitesH7017, and took upH5375 his parableH4912, and saidH559, StrongH386 is thy dwellingplaceH4186, and thou puttestH7760 thy nestH7064 in a rockH5553.
Nevertheless the KeniteH7014 shallH518 be wastedH1197, until AsshurH804 shall carry thee away captiveH7617. {the Kenite: Heb. Kain} {until…: or, how long shall it be ere Asshur carry thee away captive}
And he took upH5375 his parableH4912, and saidH559, AlasH188, who shall liveH2421 when GodH410 doethH7760 this!
And shipsH6716 shall come from the coastH3027 of ChittimH3794, and shall afflictH6031 AsshurH804, and shall afflictH6031 EberH5677, and he also shall perishH8 for everH5703.
And BalaamH1109 rose upH6965, and wentH3212 and returnedH7725 to his placeH4725: and BalakH1111 also wentH1980 his wayH1870.
