18 Edom will become a possession; Seir will become a possession of its enemies, but Israel will be triumphant. 19 One who comes from Jacob will rule; he will destroy the city’s survivors. 20 Then Balaam saw Amalek and proclaimed his poem: Amalek was first among the nations, but his future is destruction. 21 Next he saw the Kenites and proclaimed his poem: Your dwelling place is enduring; your nest is set in the cliffs. 22 Kain will be destroyed when Asshur takes you captive. 23 Once more he proclaimed his poem: Ah, who can live when God does this? 24 Ships will come from the coast of Kittim; they will carry out raids against Asshur and Eber, but they too will come to destruction. 25 Balaam then arose and went back to his homeland, and Balak also went his way.
