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.
7 He shall pour water from his buckets,
And his seed shall be ain many waters.
“His king shall be higher than bAgag,
And his ckingdom shall be exalted.
And his seed shall be ain many waters.
“His king shall be higher than bAgag,
And his ckingdom shall be exalted.
8 “Goda brings him out of Egypt;
He has strength like a wild ox;
He shall bconsume the nations, his enemies;
He shall cbreak their bones
And dpierce them with his arrows.
He has strength like a wild ox;
He shall bconsume the nations, his enemies;
He shall cbreak their bones
And dpierce them with his arrows.
