Numbers 24 Text (WEB)
  1. When Balaam saw that it pleased Yahweh to bless Israel, he didn't go, as at the other times, to meet with enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness.
  2. Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel dwelling according to their tribes; and the Spirit of God came on him.
  3. He took up his parable, and said, "Balaam the son of Beor says, the man whose eye was closed says;
  4. he says, who hears the words of God, who sees the vision of the Almighty, falling down, and having his eyes open:
  5. How goodly are your tents, Jacob, and your tents, Israel!
  6. As valleys they are spread forth, as gardens by the riverside, as aloes which Yahweh has planted, as cedar trees beside the waters.
  7. Water shall flow from his buckets. His seed shall be in many waters. His king shall be higher than Agag. His kingdom shall be exalted.
  8. God brings him out of Egypt. He has as it were the strength of the wild ox. He shall eat up the nations his adversaries, shall break their bones in pieces, and pierce them with his arrows.
  9. He couched, he lay down as a lion, as a lioness; who shall rouse him up? Everyone who blesses you is blessed. Everyone who curses you is cursed."
  10. Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he struck his hands together; and Balak said to Balaam, "I called you to curse my enemies, and, behold, you have altogether blessed them these three times.
  11. Therefore now flee you to your place! I thought to promote you to great honor; but, behold, Yahweh has kept you back from honor."
  12. Balaam said to Balak, "Didn't I also tell your messengers who you sent to me, saying,
  13. 'If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I can't go beyond the word of Yahweh, to do either good or bad of my own mind. I will say what Yahweh says'?
  14. Now, behold, I go to my people: come, [and] I will inform you what this people shall do to your people in the latter days."
  15. He took up his parable, and said, "Balaam the son of Beor says, the man whose eye was closed says;
  16. he says, who hears the words of God, knows the knowledge of the Most High, and who sees the vision of the Almighty, Falling down, and having his eyes open:
  17. I see him, but not now. I see him, but not near. A star will come out of Jacob. A scepter will rise out of Israel, and shall strike through the corners of Moab, and break down all the sons of Sheth.
  18. Edom shall be a possession. Seir, his enemies, also shall be a possession, while Israel does valiantly.
  19. Out of Jacob shall one have dominion, and shall destroy the remnant from the city."
  20. He looked at Amalek, and took up his parable, and said, "Amalek was the first of the nations, But his latter end shall come to destruction."
  21. He looked at the Kenite, and took up his parable, and said, "Your dwelling place is strong. Your nest is set in the rock.
  22. Nevertheless Kain shall be wasted, until Asshur carries you away captive."
  23. He took up his parable, and said, "Alas, who shall live when God does this?
  24. But ships [shall come] from the coast of Kittim. They shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber. He also shall come to destruction."
  25. Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place; and Balak also went his way.

  1. και ιδων βαλααμ οτι καλον εστιν εναντι κυριου ευλογειν τον ισραηλ ουκ επορευθη κατα το ειωθος εις συναντησιν τοις οιωνοις και απεστρεψεν το προσωπον αυτου εις την

  3. και αναλαβων την παραβολην αυτου ειπεν φησιν βαλααμ υιος βεωρ φησιν ο ανθρωπος ο αληθινως

  5. ως καλοι σου οι οικοι ιακωβ αι σκηναι σου
  6. ωσει ναπαι σκιαζουσαι και ωσει παραδεισοι επι ποταμων και ωσει σκηναι ας επηξεν κυριος ωσει κεδροι παρ'
  7. εξελευσεται ανθρωπος εκ του σπερματος αυτου και κυριευσει εθνων πολλων και υψωθησεται η γωγ βασιλεια αυτου και αυξηθησεται η βασιλεια
  8. θεος ωδηγησεν αυτον εξ αιγυπτου ως δοξα μονοκερωτος αυτω εδεται εθνη εχθρων αυτου και τα παχη αυτων εκμυελιει και ταις βολισιν αυτου κατατοξευσει

Numbers 24 Text (Latin)
  1. Cumque vidisset Balaam quod placeret Domino ut benediceret Israëli, nequaquam abiit ut ante perrexerat, ut augurium quæreret : sed dirigens contra desertum vultum suum,
  2. et elevans oculos, vidit Israël in tentoriis commorantem per tribus suas : et irruente in se spiritu Dei,
  3. assumpta parabola, ait : Dixit Balaam filius Beor : dixit homo, cujus obturatus est oculus :
  4. dixit auditor sermonum Dei, qui visionem Omnipotentis intuitus est, qui cadit, et sic aperiuntur oculi ejus :
  5. Quam pulchra tabernacula tua, Jacob, et tentoria tua, Israël !
  6. ut valles nemorosæ, ut horti juxta fluvios irrigui, ut tabernacula quæ fixit Dominus, quasi cedri prope aquas.
  7. Fluet aqua de situla ejus, et semen illius erit in aquas multas. Tolletur propter Agag, rex ejus, et auferetur regnum illius.
  8. Deus eduxit illum de Ægypto, cujus fortitudo similis est rhinocerotis. Devorabunt gentes hostes illius, ossaque eorum confringent, et perforabunt sagittis.
  9. Accubans dormivit ut leo, et quasi leæna, quam suscitare nullus audebit. Qui benedixerit tibi, erit et ipse benedictus : qui maledixerit, in maledictione reputabitur.
  10. Iratusque Balac contra Balaam, complosis manibus ait : Ad maledicendum inimicis meis vocavi te, quibus e contrario tertio benedixisti :
  11. revertere ad locum tuum. Decreveram quidem magnifice honorare te, sed Dominus privavit te honore disposito.
  12. Respondit Balaam ad Balac : Nonne nuntiis tuis, quos misisti ad me, dixi :
  13. Si dederit mihi Balac plenam domum suam argenti et auri, non potero præterire sermonem Domini Dei mei, ut vel boni quid vel mali proferam ex corde meo : sed quidquid Dominus dixerit, hoc loquar ?
  14. verumtamen pergens ad populum meum, dabo consilium, quid populus tuus populo huic faciat extremo tempore.
  15. Sumpta igitur parabola, rursum ait : Dixit Balaam filius Beor : dixit homo, cujus obturatus est oculus :
  16. dixit auditor sermonum Dei, qui novit doctrinam Altissimi, et visiones Omnipotentis videt, qui cadens apertos habet oculos :
  17. Videbo eum, sed non modo : intuebor illum, sed non prope. Orietur stella ex Jacob, et consurget virga de Israël : et percutiet duces Moab, vastabitque omnes filios Seth.
  18. Et erit Idumæa possessio ejus : hæreditas Seir cedet inimicis suis : Israël vero fortiter aget.
  19. De Jacob erit qui dominetur, et perdat reliquias civitatis.
  20. Cumque vidisset Amalec, assumens parabolam, ait : Principium gentium Amalec, cujus extrema perdentur.
  21. Vidit quoque Cinæum : et assumpta parabola, ait : Robustum quidem est habitaculum tuum : sed si in petra posueris nidum tuum,
  22. et fueris electus de stirpe Cin, quamdiu poteris permanere ? Assur enim capiet te.
  23. Assumptaque parabola iterum locutus est : Heu ! quis victurus est, quando ista faciet Deus ?
  24. Venient in trieribus de Italia : superabunt Assyrios, vastabuntque Hebræos, et ad extremum etiam ipsi peribunt.
  25. Surrexitque Balaam, et reversus est in locum suum : Balac quoque via, qua venerat, rediit.
Numbers 24 Text (KJV)
  1. And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he went not, as at other times, to seek for enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness.
  2. And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel abiding in his tents according to their tribes; and the spirit of God came upon him.
  3. And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:
  4. He hath said, which heard the words of God, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open:
  5. How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy tabernacles, O Israel!
  6. As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river's side, as the trees of lign aloes which the LORD hath planted, and as cedar trees beside the waters.
  7. He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed shall be in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted.
  8. God brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows.
  9. He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesseth thee, and cursed is he that curseth thee.
  10. And Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he smote his hands together: and Balak said unto Balaam, I called thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast altogether blessed them these three times.
  11. Therefore now flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote thee unto great honour; but, lo, the LORD hath kept thee back from honour.
  12. And Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers which thou sentest unto me, saying,
  13. If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the commandment of the LORD, to do either good or bad of mine own mind; but what the LORD saith, that will I speak?
  14. And now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days.
  15. And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:
  16. He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open:
  17. I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth.
  18. And Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly.
  19. Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remaineth of the city.
  20. And when he looked on Amalek, he took up his parable, and said, Amalek was the first of the nations; but his latter end shall be that he perish for ever.
  21. And he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is thy dwellingplace, and thou puttest thy nest in a rock.
  22. Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry thee away captive.
  23. And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when God doeth this!
  24. And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever.
  25. And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his way.
