Numbers 24:7-9

Easy-to-Read Version

⁸ “God brought them out of Egypt.
    They are as strong as a wild ox.
They will defeat all their enemies.
    They will break their bones and shatter their arrows.
⁹ Israel is like a lion,
    curled up and lying down.
Yes, they are like a young lion,
    and no one wants to wake him!
Anyone who blesses you will be blessed.
    And anyone who curses you will have great troubles.”
