Balak said to Balaam: “Even though you cannot curse them, do not bless them.”

Behold a people that rises like a lioness that rouses itself like a lion. It shall not lie down before it devours its prey and drinks the blood of its victims.”

Israel has no diviners or magicians, but God will tell them what he will do with them.

God has brought them out of Egypt; he is for them like the horns of a wild ox.

He has not seen misfortune in Jacob or observed misery in Israel. The Lord, their God, is with them, and the shout of a king among them.
