Numbers 24:9

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesseth thee, and cursed is he that curseth thee.

Judah [is] a lion's cub. From the prey, my son, you have gone up. He bowed down; he crouched like a lion and as a lioness. Who shall rouse him?

"Can you hunt prey for [the] lion? And can you satisfy [the] hunger of strong lions

Look! [the] people will rise like the lion; he raises himself and will not lie down until he eats [the] prey and drinks the blood of the slain."

[Is] it not fierce when somebody stirs it? Who [then] [is] he [who] would stand {before it}?

Kiss the Son lest he be angry and you perish [on the] way, for his anger burns quickly. Blessed are all [who] take refuge in him.

And I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you, and I will make your name great. And you will be a blessing.

but I was not willing to listen to Balaam, and he richly blessed you. So I rescued you from his hand,

when they are crouched in the dens, [when] they lie in the thicket in an ambush?
