Numbers 24:16-18

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁶This is the message of the one who hears God’s words,
receives knowledge from the Most High,
has a vision from the Almighty,
and falls ⌞into a trance⌟ with his eyes open:
¹⁷I see someone who is not here now.
I look at someone who is not nearby.
A star will come from Jacob.
A scepter will rise from Israel.
He will crush the heads of the Moabites
and destroy all the people of Sheth.^[a]
¹⁸Edom will be conquered,
and Seir, his enemy, will be conquered.
So Israel will become wealthy.
