22 God hath brought him out of Egypt, whose strength is like to the rhinoceros.

23 There is no soothsaying in Jacob, nor divination in Israel. In their times it shall be told to Jacob and to Israel what God hath wrought.

24 Behold the people shall rise up as a lioness, and shall lift itself up as a lion: it shall not lie down till it devour the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.

22 God brought them out of Egypt;(A)
    they have the strength of a wild ox.(B)
23 There is no divination against[a] Jacob,
    no evil omens(C) against[b] Israel.
It will now be said of Jacob
    and of Israel, ‘See what God has done!’
24 The people rise like a lioness;(D)
    they rouse themselves like a lion(E)
that does not rest till it devours its prey
    and drinks the blood(F) of its victims.”
