    your encampments, O Israel!
Like palm groves[a] that stretch afar,
    like gardens beside a river,

    like cedar trees beside the waters.
Water shall flow from his buckets,
    and his seed shall be (C)in many waters;
his king shall be higher than (D)Agag,
    and (E)his kingdom shall be exalted.

    and is for him like the (F)horns of the wild ox;
he shall (G)eat up the nations, his adversaries,
    and shall (H)break their bones in pieces
    and (I)pierce them through with his arrows.
He crouched, he lay down like a lion
    and (J)like a lioness; who will rouse him up?
(K)Blessed are those who bless you,
    and cursed are those who curse you.”
