22 God brings them out of Egypt;He has strength like a wild ox.
23 “For there is no sorcery against Jacob,Nor any divination against Israel.It now must be said of JacobAnd of Israel, ‘Oh, what God has done!’
24 Look, a people rises like a lioness,And lifts itself up like a lion;It shall not lie down until it devours the prey,And drinks the blood of the slain.”
25 Then Balak said to Balaam, “Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all!”
26 So Balaam answered and said to Balak, “Did I not tell you, saying, ‘All that the Lord speaks, that I must do’?”
27 Then Balak said to Balaam, “Please come, I will take you to another place; perhaps it will please God that you may curse them for me from there.”
28 So Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor, that overlooks the wasteland.
