Numbers 24

Numbers 24

1 - 14 Balaam's Third Oracle

Balaam's third oracle again establishes God's support for Israel: "Blessed is everyone who blesses you, and cursed is everyone who curses you." (9) Balak doesn't like what he hears and tries to send him away, but there's one more oracle. . .

15 - 25 Balaam's Fourth Oracle

Balaam's fourth oracle predicts that Israel will rule over the land. When Balaam is finished, then he goes away.
