5 How beautiful are thy houses, Jacob! Thy tents, Israel!
6 Like shady forests, and like gardens by a river! And like tents which the Lord hath pitched! And like cedars by streams of water.
7 There shall come forth a man from his seed, And he shall rule over many nations: And a kingdom greater than Gog's shall be raised up; And his kingdom shall be enlarged
8 God hath led him out of Egypt; His glory is like that of the unicorn; He will eat up the nations of his enemies; And he will exhaust their fatness, And pierce his enemy with his darts.
9 Couching down, he is gone to rest, like a lion; Yes like a young lion; who dare rouse him? Blessed are they who bless thee, And they who curse thee are already cursed.
10 At this Balak was inflamed with wrath against Balaam, and clapped his hands. And Balak said to Balaam, I sent for thee to curse my enemy, and behold thou hast blessed them a third time.
