MSG ^(17-24)Balaam returned and found him stationed beside his Whole-Burnt-Offering and the nobles of Moab with him. Balak said to him, “What did God say?” Then Balaam spoke his message-oracle:
  On your feet, Balak. Listen,
  listen carefully son of Zippor:
God is not man, one given to lies,
  and not a son of man changing his mind.
Does he speak and not do what he says?
  Does he promise and not come through?
I was brought here to bless;
  and now he’s blessed—how can I change that?
He has no bone to pick with Jacob,
  he sees nothing wrong with Israel.
God is with them,
  and they’re with him, shouting praises to their King.
God brought them out of Egypt,
  rampaging like a wild ox.
No magic spells can bind Jacob,
  no incantations can hold back Israel.
People will look at Jacob and Israel and say,
  “What a great thing has God done!”

  a king-of-the-beasts, aroused,
Unsleeping, unresting until its hunt is over
  and it’s eaten and drunk its fill.
