#91 What to Do about a Falling Star Problem
За Jonathan S. Rose
Numbers 23:18-24
18
He took up his parable, and said, "Rise up, Balak, and hear! Listen to me, you son of Zippor.
19
God is not a man, that he should lie, nor the son of man, that he should repent. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not make it good?
20
Behold, I have received a command to bless. He has blessed, and I can't reverse it.
21
He has not seen iniquity in Jacob. Neither has he seen perverseness in Israel. Yahweh his God is with him. The shout of a king is among them.
22
God brings them out of Egypt. He has as it were the strength of the wild ox.
23
Surely there is no enchantment with Jacob; Neither is there any divination with Israel. Now it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What has God done!
24
Behold, the people rises up as a lioness, As a lion he lifts himself up. He shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drinks the blood of the slain."
