18Then he spoke his message: “Arise, Balak, and listen; hear me, son of Zippor.

19God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?

20I have received a command to bless; he has blessed, and I cannot change it.

21“No misfortune is seen in Jacob, no misery observed Or He has not looked on Jacob’s offenses / or on the wrongs found in Israel. The LORD their God is with them; the shout of the King is among them.

22God brought them out of Egypt; they have the strength of a wild ox.

23There is no divination against Or in Jacob, no evil omens against Or in Israel. It will now be said of Jacob and of Israel, ‘See what God has done!’

24The people rise like a lioness; they rouse themselves like a lion that does not rest till it devours its prey and drinks the blood of its victims.”
