Nm 24, 1-25

1 And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he went not, as at other times, to seek for enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness. 2 "And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel abiding in his tents according to their tribes; and the spirit of God came upon him. " 3 And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor has said, and the man whose eyes are open has said: 4 He has said, which heard the words of God, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open: 5 How goodly are your tents, O Jacob, and your tabernacles, O Israel! 6 As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river's side, as the trees of lign aloes which the LORD has planted, and as cedar trees beside the waters. 7 He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed shall be in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted. 8 "God brought him forth out of Egypt; he has as it were the strength of an unicorn (p. ox): he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows. " 9 He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesses you, and cursed is he that curses you. 10 And Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he stroke his hands together: and Balak said unto Balaam, I called you to curse mine enemies, and, behold, you have altogether blessed them these three times. 11 "Therefore now flee you to your place: I thought to promote you unto great honour; but, lo, the LORD has kept you back from honour. " 12 And Balaam said unto Balak, Spoke I not also to your messengers which you sent unto me, saying, 13 "If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the commandment of the LORD, to do either good or bad of mine own mind; but what the LORD says, that will I speak? " 14 And now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise you what this people shall do to your people in the latter days. 15 And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor has said, and the man whose eyes are open has said: 16 He has said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open: 17 I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall strike the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth. 18 "And Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly. " 19 Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remains of the city. 20 "And when he looked on Amalek, he took up his parable, and said, Amalek was the first of the nations; but his latter end shall be that he perish for ever. " 21 And he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is your dwelling place, and you put your nest in a rock. 22 Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry you away captive. 23 And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when God does this! 24 And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever. 25 And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his way.

Nm 24,5 - Tretie požehnanie opisuje úrodnosť zeme Kanaánu, v ktorej Izrael bude bývať (5–7), moc a slávu izraelského kráľovstva (8. 9), ktorú si získa vo víťazných bojoch.

Nm 24,7 - Agag je spoločné meno všetkých amalekitských kráľov, ako faraón zasa egyptských alebo abimelech filištínskych vladárov. Je dosť možné, že sa tak volal kráľ Amalekitov, ktorý bojoval proti Izraelitom na Sinajskom polostrove Ex 17,8. Tu predstavuje meno Agag všetkých nepriateľov Izraela, v širšom zmysle.

Nm 24,8 - Pozri aj 23,22. Rohy boli symbolom sily. Zubrie rohy naznačujú veľkú moc Pánovu.

Nm 24,9 - Ten, kto ťa požehná… porov. Gn 27,29.

Nm 24,14 - Porov. Gn 49,1.

Nm 24,15-19 - Také požehnanie, čiže takú veštbu, nežiadal si Balak od Baláma. Balám ju prednáša akoby mimovoľne. Balám vidí, že v budúcnosti Izrael bude mať slávne kráľovstvo. Hviezda je odznakom slávy a žezlo moci (Gn 49,10; Iz 14,12; Zjv 1,16.20; 2,1; 9,1.). Proroctvo o zničení všetkých nepriateľov Izraela začalo sa uskutočňovať za Dávida a jeho nástupcov a do rozhodného štádia sa dostalo za časov Mesiáša – Kráľa. Aj v iných predpovediach volá sa Mesiáš "svetlo" (Iz 9,1), "zornica" (2 Pt 1,19; Zjv 22,16) a "kráľ" (Ž 2).

Nm 24,20 - Amalekiti spomínajú sa už za časov Abrahámových (Gn 14,7). Bol to starý národ: prvý medzi národmi. Iní autori vykladajú, že Amalekiti boli prví, čo bojovali proti Izraelitom (Ex 17,8 n.; Nm 14,43.45). Zánik Amalekitov začal sa za Šaula a dokonal sa za Ezechiáša (1 Sam 15,8 n.; 27,8; 30,9 n.; 1 Krn 4,43).

Nm 24,21-22 - Kenejci boli s Izraelom v priateľstve od najstarších čias. Mojžišov švagor Hobab bol Kenejec (Sdc 1,16; 4,11). Čiastka Kenejcov pripojila sa ku kmeňu Júdovmu (Sdc 1,16), čiastka ku kmeňu Neftaliho (Sdc 4,11). Po zaujatí Kanaánu Kenejci sa osadili v blízkosti Izraela, na juhu Mŕtveho mora. Kenejci boli spojencami Amalekitov a prináležali vlastne k Madiánčanom. Preto predpoveď o Kenejcoch možno chápať ako proroctvo o Madiánčanoch, ktorí sa spolčili s Moabčanmi proti Izraelitom (22,4.7; 25,1.14.17). O Kenejcoch porov. Gn 15,19. Kain značí Kenejcov.

Nm 24,23-24 - V tejto slohe Balám zvestuje zánik asýrskej ríše. Nebezpečenstvo pre Asýriu príde od západu (Macedónci, Gréci a Rimania). Kitim v užšom slova zmysle boli obyvatelia ostrova Cyprus, v širšom zmysle však obyvatelia ostrovov a pobreží na západ od Palestíny, teda národy v okruhu Stredo zemného mora. Heber je podľa súvisu najskôr synonymné slovo s Asýrom (Aššurom), označuje národy na východ od Eufratu (ako Babylonci, Elamčania, Aramejci atď.). Napokon však aj Kitim, kráľovstvá v okolí Stredozemného mora, padnú. O tomto bude prorokovať Daniel, ktorý oznámi, že Mesiáš na rumovisku kráľovstiev zbuduje svoje večné Kráľovstvo.
