2 And Balaam raised his eyes, and saw Israel aencamped according to their tribes; and bthe Spirit of God came upon him.
3 aThen he took up his oracle and said:
“The utterance of Balaam the son of Beor,
The utterance of the man whose eyes are opened,
“The utterance of Balaam the son of Beor,
The utterance of the man whose eyes are opened,
4 The utterance of him who hears the words of God,
Who sees the vision of the Almighty,
Who afalls down, with eyes wide open:
Who sees the vision of the Almighty,
Who afalls down, with eyes wide open:
6 Like valleys that stretch out,
aLike gardens by the riverside,
Like aloes bplanted by the Lord,
Like cedars beside the waters.
aLike gardens by the riverside,
Like aloes bplanted by the Lord,
Like cedars beside the waters.
