balaam » A prophet
So Balaam lifted up his eyes and saw Israel, dwelling, according to his tribes, - then came upon him the Spirit of God; and he took up his parable, and said, - The oracle of Balaam, son of Beor, Yea the oracle of the man, of opened eye; The oracle of one hearing sayings of GOD, Who the sight of the Almighty, receiveth in vision, Who falleth down but hath unveiled eyes: - read more.
How pleasing are thy tents, O Jacob, - Thy habitations, O Israel: Like ravines extended, Like gardens by a river, - Like aloe-trees Yahweh hath planted, Like cedars by waters: He poureth forth water from his buckets, And, his seed, is among many waters, - And taller than Agag is his King, And exalted is his kingdom. GOD having brought him forth out of Egypt, The very horns of the buffalo, are his, - He eateth up nations that assail him And the bones of them, he breaketh And the loins of him, he crusheth: He hath knelt - hath lain down, Like a strong lion, yea like a lioness, Who shall rouse him up? Such as bless thee are each one blessed, But, such, as curse thee, are each one cursed.

Forsaking a straight path, they have gone astray, following out the way of Balaam son of Beor, who loved, a reward of wrong, But had, a reproof, of his own transgression, a dumb beast of burden, in man's voice, finding utterance, forbade the prophet's madness.
