Numbers 24:14-25
14 Now I am going back to my people, but come, let me warn you of what this people will do to your people in days to come.”
15
Balaam’s Fourth Oracle
Then he uttered his oracle:
“The oracle of Balaam son of Beor,
the oracle of one whose eye sees clearly,
16
the oracle of one who hears the words of God,
who has knowledge from the Most High,
who sees a vision from the Almighty,
who falls prostrate, and whose eyes are opened:
17
“I see him, but not now;
I behold him, but not near.
A star will come out of Jacob;
a scepter will rise out of Israel.
He will crush the foreheads of Moab,
the skulls of all the sons of Sheth.
18
Edom will be conquered;
Seir, his enemy, will be conquered,
but Israel will grow strong.
19
A ruler will come out of Jacob
and destroy the survivors of the city.”
20
Balaam’s Final Oracles
Then Balaam saw Amalek and uttered his oracle:
“Amalek was first among the nations,
but he will come to ruin at last.”
21
Then he saw the Kenites and uttered his oracle:
“Your dwelling place is secure,
your nest is set in a rock;
22
yet you Kenites will be destroyed
when Asshur takes you captive.”
23
Then he uttered his oracle:
“Ah, who can live when God does this?
24
Ships will come from the shores of Kittim;
they will subdue Asshur and Eber,
but they too will come to ruin.”
25 Then Balaam got up and returned home and Balak went his own way.
