TSNTyndale Study Notes:

24:3-9 The third oracle contains another description of God’s plan to bless Israel.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

General Information:

Balaam finishes the prophecy under the control of the Spirit of God.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

(Occurrence 0) He crouches down like a lion, like a lioness

(Some words not found in UHB: crouches lies_down like,lion and,like,lioness who? rouse,him bless,you blessed and,curse,you cursing )

In this simile, Balaam compares the Israelites to both male and female lions. This means they are dangerous and always ready to attack.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) Who dares disturb him?

(Some words not found in UHB: crouches lies_down like,lion and,like,lioness who? rouse,him bless,you blessed and,curse,you cursing )

Balaam uses a question to warn all the people to not provoke the Israelites. This can be translated as a statement. Alternate translation: “No one dares to disturb him!”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) May everyone who blesses him be blessed; may everyone who curses him be cursed

(Some words not found in UHB: crouches lies_down like,lion and,like,lioness who? rouse,him bless,you blessed and,curse,you cursing )

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “May God bless those who bless the Israelites; may he curse those who curse the Israelites”
