“I see him, but not now.I see him, but not near.A star will come out of Jacob.A scepter will rise out of Israel,and shall strike through the corners of Moab,and crush all the sons of Sheth.”

15He took up his parable, and said,“Balaam the son of Beor says,the man whose eyes are open says; 16he says, who hears the words of God,knows the knowledge of the Most High,and who sees the vision of the Almighty,falling down, and having his eyes open: 17I see him, but not now.I see him, but not near.A star will come out of Jacob.A scepter will rise out of Israel,and shall strike through the corners of Moab,and crush all the sons of Sheth. 18Edom shall be a possession.Seir, his enemy, also shall be a possession,while Israel does valiantly. 19Out of Jacob shall one have dominion,and shall destroy the remnant from the city.”
