Numbers 24:18-25

Numbers 24:18-25 AMP

“Edom shall be [taken as] a possession, [Mount] Seir, Israel’s enemies, also will be a possession, While Israel performs valiantly. “One from [the descendants of] Jacob shall have dominion And will destroy the remnant from the city.” Balaam looked at Amalek and took up his [fifth] discourse (oracle) and said: “Amalek was the first of the [neighboring] nations [to oppose the Israelites after they left Egypt], But his end shall be destruction.” And Balaam looked at the Kenites and took up his [sixth] discourse (oracle) and said: “Strong is your dwelling place, And you set your nest in the cliff. “Nevertheless the Kenites will be consumed. How long will Asshur (Assyria) keep you (Israel) captive?” Then he took up his [seventh] discourse (oracle) and said: “Alas, who can live unless God has ordained it? “But ships shall come from the coast of Kittim, And shall afflict Asshur (Assyria) and Eber; So they (the victors) also will come to destruction.” Then Balaam arose and departed and returned to his place, and Balak also went on his way.
