AND when Bil'am saw that it pleased Yahuah to bless Yashar'el, he went not, as at other times, to seek for enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness.
And Bil'am lifted up his eyes, and he saw Yashar'el abiding in his tents according to their tribes; and the Ruach Elohiym came upon him.
And he took up his parable, and said, Bil'am the son of Be'or has said, and the man whose eyes are open has said:
He has said, which heard the words of El, which saw the vision of El Shaddai, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open:
How goodly are your tents, O Ya`aqov, and your tabernacles, O Yashar'el!
As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river's side, as the trees of lign aloes which Yahuah has planted, and as cedar trees beside the waters.
He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed shall be in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted.
El brought him forth out of Mitsrayim; he has as it were the strength of a unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows.
He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesses you, and cursed is he that curses you.
And Balaq's anger was kindled against Bil'am, and he smote his hands together: and Balaq said unto Bil'am, I called you to curse my enemies, and, behold, you have altogether blessed them these three times.
Therefore now flee to your place: I thought to promote you unto great honor; but, lo, Yahuah has kept you back from honor.
And Bil'am said unto Balaq, Spoke I not also to you messengers which you sent unto me, saying,
If Balaq would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the commandment of Yahuah, to do either good or bad of my own mind; but what Yahuah says, that will I speak?
And now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise what this people shall do to your people in the latter days.
And he took up his parable, and said, Bil'am the son of Be'or has said, and the man whose eyes are open has said:
He has said, which heard the words of El, and knew the knowledge of El Elyon, which saw the vision of El Shaddai, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open:
I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a star out of Ya`aqov, and a sceptre shall rise out of Yashar'el, and shall smite the corners of Mo'av, and destroy all the children of Sheth.
And Edom shall be a possession, Se'iyr also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Yashar'el shall do valiantly.
Out of Ya`aqov shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remains of the city.
And when he looked on Amaleq, he took up his parable, and said, Amaleq was the first of the nations; but his latter end shall be that he perish forever.
And he looked on the Qeyniyiym, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is your dwellingplace, and you put your nest in a rock.
Nevertheless the Qayiniy shall be wasted, until Ashshur shall carry you away captive.
And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when El does this!
And ships shall come from the coast of Kittiym, and shall afflict Ashshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish forever.
And Bil'am rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balaq also went his way.
