ASV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ And he took up his parable, and said,
Balaam the son of Beor saith,
And the man whose eye was closed saith; ¹⁶ He saith, who heareth the words of God,
And knoweth the knowledge of the Most High,
Who seeth the vision of the Almighty,
Falling down, and having his eyes open: ¹⁷ I see him, but not now;
I behold him, but not nigh:
There shall come forth a star out of Jacob,
And a sceptre shall rise out of Israel,
And shall smite through the corners of Moab,
And break down all the sons of tumult. ¹⁸ And Edom shall be a possession,
Seir also shall be a possession, [who were] his enemies;
While Israel doeth valiantly. ¹⁹ And out of Jacob shall one have dominion,
And shall destroy the remnant from the city. ²⁰ And he looked on Amalek, and took up his parable, and said,
Amalek was the first of the nations;
But his latter end shall come to destruction. ²¹ And he looked on the Kenite, and took up his parable, and said,
Strong is thy dwelling-place,
And thy nest is set in the rock. ²² Nevertheless Kain shall be wasted,
Until Asshur shall carry thee away captive. ²³ And he took up his parable, and said,
Alas, who shall live when God doeth this? ²⁴ But ships [shall come] from the coast of Kittim,
And they shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber;
And he also shall come to destruction.
