3 and he delivered this message: |This is the message of Balaam, son of Beor. This is the message of the man whose eyesight is clear. 4 This is the message of the one who hears the words of God, has a vision from the Almighty, and falls [into a trance] with his eyes open: 5 How beautiful are your tents, Jacob, and the places where you live, Israel. 6 Your tents spread out like rivers, like gardens by a river, like aloes planted by the LORD, like cedars by the water. 7 Water will flow from their buckets, and their crops will have plenty of water. Their king will be greater than Agag, and their kingdom will be considered the best. 8 The God who brought them out of Egypt has the strength of a wild bull. He will devour nations that are his enemies, crush their bones, and pierce them with arrows. 9 His people lie down [and] rest like a lion. They are like a lioness. Who dares to disturb them? Those who bless you will be blessed! Those who curse you will be cursed!| Numbers 24:3-9, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
