Numbers 23:24-26
New International Reader's Version
24 The Israelites are going to wake up like a female lion.
They are going to get up like a male lion.
They are like a lion that won’t rest
until it eats what it has caught.
They are like a lion that won’t rest
until it drinks the blood of what it has killed.”
25 Then Balak said to Balaam, “Don’t put a curse on them at all! And don’t give them a blessing at all!”
26 Balaam answered, “Didn’t I tell you that I must do only what the Lord says?”
