The Prophecy from Peor
When Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he did not go as at other times to seek omens but he set his face toward the wilderness.
When Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he did not go as at other times to seek omens but he set his face toward the wilderness.
Bileam aber sah, dass es gut war in den Augen des HERRN, Israel zu segnen. Da ließ er sich nicht wie die vorigen Male auf Zaubereien ein, sondern wandte sein Gesicht der Wüste zu.
And Balaam lifted up his eyes and saw Israel camping tribe by tribe; and the Spirit of God came upon him.
Als Bileam aufblickte, sah er Israel im Lager, nach Stämmen geordnet. Da kam der Geist Gottes über ihn,
He took up his discourse and said,
“The oracle of Balaam the son of Beor,
And the oracle of the man whose eye is opened;
“The oracle of Balaam the son of Beor,
And the oracle of the man whose eye is opened;
er begann mit seinem Orakelspruch und sagte: Spruch Bileams, des Sohnes Beors, Spruch des Mannes mit geöffnetem Auge,
The oracle of him who hears the words of God,
Who sees the vision of the Almighty,
Falling down, yet having his eyes uncovered,
Who sees the vision of the Almighty,
Falling down, yet having his eyes uncovered,
Spruch dessen, der Gottesworte hört, der eine Vision des Allmächtigen sieht, der niedersinkt mit entschleierten Augen:
How fair are your tents, O Jacob,
Your dwellings, O Israel!
Your dwellings, O Israel!
Jakob, wie schön sind deine Zelte, deine Wohnungen, Israel!
“Like valleys that stretch out,
Like gardens beside the river,
Like aloes planted by the LORD,
Like cedars beside the waters.
Like gardens beside the river,
Like aloes planted by the LORD,
Like cedars beside the waters.
Wie Bachtäler ziehen sie sich hin, wie Gärten an einem Strom, wie Aloebäume, vom HERRN gepflanzt, wie Zedern am Wasser.
“Water will flow from his buckets,
And his seed will be by many waters,
And his king shall be higher than Agag,
And his kingdom shall be exalted.
And his seed will be by many waters,
And his king shall be higher than Agag,
And his kingdom shall be exalted.
Von seinen Schöpfeimern rinnt das Wasser, reichlich Wasser hat seine Saat. Sein König möge Agag überlegen sein und seine Königsherrschaft sich erheben.
“God brings him out of Egypt,
He is for him like the horns of the wild ox.
He will devour the nations who are his adversaries,
And will crush their bones in pieces,
And shatter them with his arrows.
He is for him like the horns of the wild ox.
He will devour the nations who are his adversaries,
And will crush their bones in pieces,
And shatter them with his arrows.
Ja, Gott hat ihn aus Ägypten herausgeführt. Er hat Hörner wie ein Wildstier. Er frisst die Nationen, die ihm Feind sind, er zermalmt ihre Knochen und zerbricht ihre Pfeile.
“He couches, he lies down as a lion,
And as a lion, who dares rouse him?
Blessed is everyone who blesses you,
And cursed is everyone who curses you.”
And as a lion, who dares rouse him?
Blessed is everyone who blesses you,
And cursed is everyone who curses you.”
Er duckt sich, liegt da wie ein Löwe, wie eine Löwin. Wer wagt es, sie aufzujagen? Wer dich segnet, ist gesegnet, und wer dich verflucht, ist verflucht.
Then Balak’s anger burned against Balaam, and he struck his hands together; and Balak said to Balaam, “I called you to curse my enemies, but behold, you have persisted in blessing them these three times!
Da wurde Balak zornig auf Bileam. Er schlug die Hände zusammen und sagte zu Bileam: Ich habe dich gerufen, damit du meine Feinde verwünschst, siehe, du aber hast sie schon dreimal gesegnet.
“Therefore, flee to your place now. I said I would honor you greatly, but behold, the LORD has held you back from honor.”
Und jetzt flieh dorthin, woher du gekommen bist! Ich habe versprochen, dir einen hohen Lohn zu geben, doch siehe, der HERR hat dich daran gehindert, ihn zu erhalten.
Balaam said to Balak, “Did I not tell your messengers whom you had sent to me, saying,
Bileam antwortete Balak: Habe ich nicht schon zu deinen Boten, die du zu mir geschickt hast, gesagt:
‘Though Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not do anything contrary to the command of the LORD, either good or bad, of my own accord. What the LORD speaks, that I will speak’?
Auch wenn mir Balak sein Haus voll Silber und Gold gibt, kann ich dem Befehl des HERRN nicht zuwiderhandeln und nach eigenem Gutdünken Gutes oder Böses bewirken. Ich muss sagen, was der HERR sagt.
“And now, behold, I am going to my people; come, and I will advise you what this people will do to your people in the days to come.”
Siehe, ich gehe jetzt zu meinem Volk zurück. Ich will dir aber noch verraten, was dieses Volk deinem Volk in der Zukunft antun wird.
He took up his discourse and said,
“The oracle of Balaam the son of Beor,
And the oracle of the man whose eye is opened,
“The oracle of Balaam the son of Beor,
And the oracle of the man whose eye is opened,
Und er begann mit seinem Orakelspruch und sagte: Spruch Bileams, des Sohnes Beors, Spruch des Mannes mit geöffnetem Auge,
The oracle of him who hears the words of God,
And knows the knowledge of the Most High,
Who sees the vision of the Almighty,
Falling down, yet having his eyes uncovered.

Who sees the vision of the Almighty,
Falling down, yet having his eyes uncovered.
Spruch dessen, der Gottesworte hört und die Kunde des Höchsten kennt, der eine Vision des Allmächtigen sieht, der niedersinkt mit entschleierten Augen:
“I see him, but not now;
I behold him, but not near;
A star shall come forth from Jacob,
A scepter shall rise from Israel,
And shall crush through the forehead of Moab,
And tear down all the sons of Sheth.
I behold him, but not near;
A star shall come forth from Jacob,
A scepter shall rise from Israel,
And shall crush through the forehead of Moab,
And tear down all the sons of Sheth.
Ich sehe ihn, aber nicht jetzt, ich erblicke ihn, aber nicht in der Nähe: Ein Stern geht in Jakob auf, ein Zepter erhebt sich in Israel. Er zerschlägt Moab die Schläfen und allen Söhnen Sets den Schädel.
“Edom shall be a possession,
Seir, its enemies, also will be a possession,
While Israel performs valiantly.
Seir, its enemies, also will be a possession,
While Israel performs valiantly.
Edom wird Eigentum, Seïr wird Eigentum seiner Feinde und Israel wird Starkes tun.

And will destroy the remnant from the city.”

Aus Jakob steigt einer herab und richtet zugrunde, was aus der Stadt entkam.
And he looked at Amalek and took up his discourse and said,
“Amalek was the first of the nations,
But his end shall be destruction.”

But his end shall be destruction.”
Dann sah er Amalek; er begann mit seinem Orakelspruch und sagte: Die erste unter den Nationen war Amalek, doch seine Zukunft ist Untergang.
And he looked at the Kenite, and took up his discourse and said,
“Your dwelling place is enduring,
And your nest is set in the cliff.

And your nest is set in the cliff.
Dann sah er die Keniter; er begann mit seinem Orakelspruch und sagte: Dein Wohnsitz ist sicher und fest, dein Nest ist auf Felsen gebaut;
“Nevertheless Kain will be consumed;
How long will Asshur keep you captive?”
How long will Asshur keep you captive?”
doch Kain wird fortgeschafft werden. Nicht mehr lange, dann führt Assur dich gefangen weg.
Then he took up his discourse and said,
“Alas, who can live except God has ordained it?
“Alas, who can live except God has ordained it?
Er begann mit seinem Orakelspruch und sagte: Weh, wer wird am Leben bleiben, wenn Gott das tut?
“But ships shall come from the coast of Kittim,
And they shall afflict Asshur and will afflict Eber;
So they also will come to destruction.”
And they shall afflict Asshur and will afflict Eber;
So they also will come to destruction.”
Schiffe kommen von den Kittäern, sie demütigen Assur, sie demütigen Eber. Doch auch er endet im Untergang.
