Numbers 24
24
1And when Bil’am [Not of the People] saw that it pleased the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) to bless Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], he went not, as at other times, to seek for enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness.
2And Bil’am [Not of the People] lifted up his eyes, and he saw Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] abiding [in his tents] according to their tribes; and the spirit of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] came upon him.
3And he took up his parable, and said, Bil’am [Not of the People] the son of B’or [Burning] has said, and the man whose eyes are open has said:
4He has said, which heard the words of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling [into a trance], but having his eyes open:
5How goodly are youi tents, O Ya’akov [Heal of God], [and] youi tabernacles, O Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]!
6As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river’s side, as the trees of lign [brown] aloes which the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has planted, [and] as cedar trees beside the waters.
7He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed [shall be] in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag [Violent], and his kingdom shall be exalted.
8God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] brought him forth out of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place]; he has 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.
9He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) [is] he that blesses youi, and cursed [is] he that curses youi.
10And Balak [Devastator]’s anger was kindled against Bil’am [Not of the People], and he struck his hands together: and Balak [Devastator] said unto Bil’am [Not of the People], I called youi to curse my enemies, and, behold, youi have altogether Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) [them] these three times.
11Therefore now flee youi to youi place: I thought to promote youi unto great honour; but, lo, the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has kept youi back from honour.
12And Bil’am [Not of the People] said unto Balak [Devastator], Spoke I not also to youi messengers which youi sent unto me, saying,
13If Balak [Devastator] would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the commandment of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), to do [either] good or bad of my own mind; [but] what the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) says, that will I speak?
14And now, behold, I go unto my people: come [therefore, and] I will advertise (to advise, warn, inform, reveal) youi what this people shall do to youi people in the latter days.
15And he took up his parable, and said, Bil’am [Not of the People] the son of B’or [Burning] has said, and the man whose eyes are open has said:
16He has said, which heard the words of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and knew the knowledge of the most High, [which] saw the vision of the Almighty, falling [into a trance], but having his eyes open:
17I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not near: there shall come a Star out of Ya’akov [Heal of God], and a Sceptre shall rise out of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], and shall strike the corners of Mo’av [Seed of my Father], and destroy all the children of Shet [Compensation].
18And Edom [Red] shall be a possession, Se’ir [Shaggy] also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] shall do valiantly.
19Out of Ya’akov [Heal of God] shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remains of the city.
20And when he looked on ‘Amalek [Dweller in a Valley], he took up his parable, and said, ‘Amalek [Dweller in a Valley] [was] the first of the nations; but his latter end [shall be] that he perish forever.
21And he looked on the Keini [traveling tinkers or blacksmiths], and took up his parable, and said, Strong is youi dwellingplace, and youi put youri nest in a rock.
22Nevertheless the Kayin [Possession] shall be wasted, until Ashur [A Level Plain] shall carry youi away captive.
23And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] does this!
24And ships [shall come] from the coast of Kittim [Bruisers], and shall afflict Ashur [A Level Plain], and shall afflict ‘Ever, and he also shall perish forever.
25And Bil’am [Not of the People] rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak [Devastator] went his way.
