Numbers 24:17
Thomson 1808
I can point to him, though he is not now;
I hail him happy though he is not near.
A star will arise out of Jacob—
There shall rise up a man out of Israel,
And he will smite the princes of Moab,
And plunder all the sons of Seth:
Brenton 1851
I will point to him, but not now; I bless him, but he draws not near: a star shall rise out of Jacob, a man shall spring out of Israel; and shall crush the princes of Moab, and shall spoil all the sons of Seth.
Greek · Brenton
Δείξω αὐτῷ, καὶ οὐχὶ νῦν· μακαρίζω, καὶ οὐκ ἐγγίζει· ἀνατελεῖ ἄστρον ἐξ Ἰακὼβ, ἀναστήσεται ἄνθρωπος ἐξ Ἰσραήλ· καὶ θραύσει τοὺς ἀρχηγοὺς Μωὰβ, καῒ προνομεύσει πάντας υἱοὺς Σήθ.
