Numbers 24:16-24

LEB(i) 16 the declaration of the hearer of God's words,* and the knower of the knowledge of the Most High, who sees the vision of Shaddai,* who is falling, and his eyes are revealed. 17 I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not near; a star will go out from Jacob, and a scepter will rise from Israel; it will crush the foreheads of Moab and destroy all the children of Seth. 18 Edom will be a captive; Seir, its enemies, will be a captive, and Israel will be acting courageously.* 19 Someone* from Jacob will rule and will destroy a remnant* from the city." 20 And he looked at Amalek, uttered* his oracle, and said, "Amalek is first* of the nations, but his future will be forever ruin." 21 And he looked at the Kenites,* uttered* his oracle, and said,
"Steady is your dwelling place; in the rock is your nest. 22 Nevertheless, the Kenite will be burned; how long will Asshur keep* you captive?" 23 Again he uttered* his oracle and said,
"Woe, who will live when God establishes this?* 24 The ships will come from the hand of the Kittim, and they will afflict Asshur and will afflict Eber; also he will be forever ruin."
