How should I menace when Yahweh has not menaced? ⁹ For from the summit of the rocks I am seeing him, and from the hills I am regarding him. Behold, the people is tabernacling by itself alone, and among the nations it is not reckoning itself. ¹⁰ Who counts the soil-drift of Jacob? And who numbers the dust cloud of Israel? May my soul die the death of the upright, and may my hereafter be just as his!" ¹¹ Then Balak said to Balaam:What have you done to me? To revile my enemies I took you, yet behold, you bless, yea bless them!" ¹² Yet he answered and said:What Yahweh places in my mouth, is it not it that I should observe to speak? ¹³ Balak said to him:Go, I pray, with me to another place from where you may see it. Only its outmost part shall you see; all of it you shall not see. Revile it for me from there. ¹⁴ So he took him to the field of the Watchmen, to the summit of the Pisgah ridge. He built seven altars and offered up a young bull and a ram on each altar. ¹⁵ Then he said to Balak:Station yourself thus at your ascent offering while I meet Him thus. ¹⁶ Yahweh met with Balaam and placed the word in his mouth and said:Return to Balak and thus shall you speak. ¹⁷ So he came to him, and behold, he was stationed at his ascent offering, and the chiefs of Moab with him. Balak said to him:What has Yahweh spoken? ¹⁸ He took up his discourse and said:Arise, Balak, and hear! Give ear unto me, son of Zippor!" ¹⁹ El is not a man that He should lie. Nor a son of humanity that He should feel regret. Does He say it and then not do it? Or speak and then not carry it out? ²⁰ Behold, I undertake to bless; He blesses and I shall not reverse it. ²¹ He does not look for sorrow in Jacob, nor does He see toil in Israel. Yahweh their Elohim is with him, and the shout of their king is with him. ²² El, Who brought them forth from Egypt, was to him like a wild bull's cornuted strength. ²³ For there is no augury against Jacob nor divination against Israel; at the right time it is spoken to Jacob and to Israel:What has El contrived!

¹ Balaam saw that it was good in the eyes of Yahweh to bless Israel so he did not go out, as he had done time upon time, to meet auguries, yet set his face toward the wilderness. ² When Balaam lifted his eyes and saw Israel tabernacling by its tribes, then the spirit of Elohim came on him. ³ He took up his discourse and said:The averring of Balaam son of Beor, and the averring of the master with his eye obstructed;" ⁴ the averring of the one hearing the sayings of El, Who is perceiving a vision from Him Who-Suffices, falling prostrate, yet his eyes are revealed. ⁵ How good are your tents, O Jacob! Your tabernacles, O Israel!" ⁶ Like the watercourses are they stretched out, like gardens along a stream, like the aloes Yahweh has planted, like the cedars beside the waters. ⁷ Water flows from its irrigation buckets, so its seed is among abundant waters. His king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall lift itself up. ⁸ El Who brought him forth from Egypt is to him as a wild bull's cornuted strength. He shall devour the nations, his foes, and pick their bones clean; His arrow shall transfix the enemy. ⁹ He crouches and lies down like a lion, and like a parent lion; who shall make him rise? Whoever is blessing you is blessed and whoever is cursing you is cursed. ¹⁰ Now Balak's anger grew hot against Balaam, and he slapped his palms together. Balak said to Balaam:To revile my enemies I called you, and behold, you have blessed, yea blessed them these three times!" ¹¹ And now get yourself away to your place! I said I would glorify, yea glorify you. Yet behold, Yahweh has withheld you from glory. ¹² Then Balaam said to Balak:Did I not speak also to your messengers whom you sent to me, saying. ¹³ If Balak were giving to me the fullness of his house in silver and gold, I could not cross the bidding of Yahweh to do what is good or evil out of my own heart. Whatever Yahweh shall speak, it shall I speak. ¹⁴ And now, behold me going to my people. Come now! I shall counsel you what this people shall do to your people in the latter days. ¹⁵ Then he took up his discourse and said:The averring of Balaam son of Beor, and the averring of the master with his eye obstructed;" ¹⁶ the averring of the one hearing the sayings of El and realizing the knowledge of the Supreme. He is perceiving a vision from Him Who-Suffices, falling prostrate, yet his eyes are revealed. ¹⁷ I see him yet not now, I regard him yet not near. A star will tread forth from Jacob; a scepter will arise from Israel, and he will transfix both edges of Moab, and the scalp of all the sons of tumult. ¹⁸ Edom will become a tenancy, even Seir will become a tenancy of its enemies; yet Israel will do ably. ¹⁹ One from Jacob shall hold sway, and will destroy the survivors of the city. ²⁰ When he saw Amalek, he took up his discourse and said:First of the nations was Amalek, yet his hereafter will lead unto perishing. ²¹ When he saw the Kenite, he took up his discourse and said:Perennial is your dwelling, and set high in a crag is your nest. ²² But rather shall Cain come to eradication; how long until Asshur shall capture you? ²³ Then he took up his discourse and said:Woe! Who shall live when El lays it down? ²⁴ And those going forth from the hand of Kittim will humiliate Assyria and humiliate Eber. Yet he, too, will come unto perishing. ²⁵ Then Balaam arose and went away and returned to his place. And Balak also went his way.
