18 Edom will be a conquered nation and Seir will be Israel's defeated foe, while Israel performs valiantly. 19 He will rule over Jacob, annihilating those who survive in the city.| 20 Next, Balaam looked directly at Amalek and then uttered this prophetic statement: |Even though Amalek is an international leader, his future is permanent destruction.| 21 Balaam also uttered this prophetic statement about the Kenites: |Your dwelling places are stable, because your nest is carved in solid rock. 22 Nevertheless, Kain will be incinerated. How long will it take until Asshur takes you hostage?| 23 Finally, he uttered this prophetic statement: |Ah, who can live, unless God makes it happen? 24 Ships under control of Kittim will devastate Asshur and Eber, until they are permanently destroyed.| 25 Then Balaam got up, returned to his country, and Balak went on his way.
