Numbers 24:6-11
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 24
6
Like valleys that stretch out,
Like gardens beside a river,
Like aloes planted by the
Lord
,
Like cedars beside the waters.
7
Water will flow from his buckets,
And his seed
will be
by many waters,
And his king shall be higher than Agag,
And his kingdom shall be exalted.
8
God brings him out of Egypt,
He is
for him like the horns of the wild ox.
He will devour the nations
who are
his adversaries,
And will crush their bones,
And smash
them
with his arrows.
9
He crouches, he lies down like a lion,
And like a lioness, who dares to rouse him?
Blessed is
everyone
who blesses you,
And cursed is
everyone
who curses you.'
10
Then Balak’s anger burned against Balaam, and he struck his hands together; and Balak said to Balaam, 'I called you to curse my enemies, but behold, you have persisted in blessing them these three times!
11
So flee to your place now. I said I would honor you greatly, but behold, the
Lord
has held you back from honor.'
King James Version
Chapter 24
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.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 24
6
They stretch out like river valleys,
like gardens beside a stream,
like aloes the
Lord
has planted,
like cedars beside the water.
7
Water will flow from his buckets,
and his seed will be by abundant water.
His king will be greater than Agag,
and his kingdom will be exalted.
8
God brought him out of Egypt;
he is like the horns of a wild ox for them.
He will feed on enemy nations
and gnaw their bones;
he will strike them with his arrows.
9
He crouches, he lies down like a lion
or a lioness—who dares to rouse him?
Those who bless you will be blessed,
and those who curse you will be cursed.
10
Then Balak became furious with Balaam, struck his hands together, and said to him, "I summoned you to put a curse on my enemies, but instead, you have blessed them these three times.

Lord
has denied you a reward."

like gardens by the riverside.
They are like tall trees planted by the
Lord

like cedars beside the waters.

their offspring have all they need.
Their king will be greater than Agag;
their kingdom will be exalted.

breaking their bones in pieces,
shooting them with arrows.

like a lioness, who dares to arouse her?
Blessed is everyone who blesses you, O Israel,
and cursed is everyone who curses you.'

Lord
has kept you from your reward.'
