15 Balaam said:“I am the son of Beor,and my words are true,so listen to my message!
16 My knowledge comesfrom God Most High,the Lord All-Powerful.I bowed down to himand saw a vision of Israel.
17 “What I saw in my visionhasn't happened yet.But some day, a king of Israelwill appear like a star.He will wipe out you Moabitesand destroy those tribeswho live in the desert.
