8. God brought them out of Egypt.They are as strong as a wild ox.They will defeat their enemies.They will break their enemies’ bones.They will shoot them with arrows.
9. Like a lion, they lie waiting to attack.No one would wake a sleeping lion.Anyone who blesses you will be blessed.And anyone who curses you will be cursed.”
10. Then Balak was angry with Balaam. Balak pounded his fist. He said to Balaam, “I called you here to curse my enemies. But you have blessed them three times.
11. Now go home! I said I would pay you well. But the Lord has made you lose your reward.”
