Numbers 24:5-10

Your tents are beautiful, people of Jacob! So are your homes, Israel! Your tents spread out like valleys, like gardens beside a river. They are like spices planted by the LORD, like cedar trees growing by the water. Israel’s water buckets will always be full, and their crops will have plenty of water. Their king will be greater than Agag; their kingdom will be very great. God brought them out of Egypt; they are as strong as a wild ox. They will defeat their enemies and break their enemies’ bones; they will shoot them with arrows. Like a lion, they lie waiting to attack; like a lioness, no one would be brave enough to wake them. Anyone who blesses you will be blessed, and anyone who curses you will be cursed.” Then Balak was angry with Balaam, and he pounded his fist. He said to Balaam, “I called you here to curse my enemies, but you have continued to bless them three times.
