Numbers 23:22-26

God brought them out of Egypt; they are as strong as a wild ox. No tricks will work on the people of Jacob, and no magic will work against Israel. People now say about them, ‘Look what God has done for Israel!’ The people rise up like a lioness; they get up like a lion. Lions don’t rest until they have eaten, until they have drunk their enemies’ blood.” Then Balak said to Balaam, “You haven’t cursed these people, so at least don’t bless them!” Balaam answered Balak, “I told you before that I can only do what the LORD tells me.”
