20. Listen, I received a command to bless;God has blessed, and I cannot reverse it!
21. No misfortune is in his plan for Jacob;no trouble is in store for Israel.For the lord their God is with them;he has been proclaimed their king.
22. God brought them out of Egypt;for them he is as strong as a wild ox.
23. No curse can touch Jacob;no magic has any power against Israel.For now it will be said of Jacob,‘What wonders God has done for Israel!’
24. These people rise up like a lioness,like a majestic lion rousing itself.They refuse to restuntil they have feasted on prey,drinking the blood of the slaughtered!”
