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,Ba´laam the son of Be´or 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,Se´ir 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.
