2. Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel dwelling according to their tribes; and the Spirit of God came on him.
3. He took up his parable, and said,“Balaam the son of Beor says,the man whose eyes are open says;
4. he says, who hears the words of God,who sees the vision of the Almighty,falling down, and having his eyes open:
5. How goodly are your tents, Jacob,and your dwellings, Israel!
6. As valleys they are spread out,as gardens by the riverside,as aloes which the Lord has planted,as cedar trees beside the waters.
