3 And he will take up his parable and say, Balaam, the son of Beor, and the man of unclosed eye, said; 4 He said, hearing the sayings of God, who will see the vision of the Almighty, falling, and the eyes being uncovered: 5 How good thy tents, Jacob, and thy dwellings, Israel! 6 As valleys extended, as a garden by the river, as tents Jehovah pitched, as cedars by the waters. 7 He will shake out the water from his bucket, and his seed in many waters, and his king shall be lifted up above Agag, and his kingdom shall be raised up. 8 God brought him forth out of Egypt; as the swiftness of the buffalo to him: he shall cut up the nations his enemies; he shall cut off their strong defenses, and he shall smite through his arrows. 9 He bowed; he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness: who shall raise him up? Praised he praising thee, and cursed he cursing thee. Numbers 24:3-9, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
