23 For there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel. At this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought!

24 Lo, the people will rise up as a lioness, and lift himself up as a lion. He shall not lie down until he have eaten the prey and drunk 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.”
