20. Then Balaam saw Amalek and proclaimed his poem:Amalek was first among the nations, but his future is destruction.

21. Next he saw the Kenites and proclaimed his poem:Your dwelling place is enduring;your nest is set in the cliffs.

22. Kain will be destroyedwhen Asshur takes you captive.

23. Once more he proclaimed his poem:Ah, who can live when God does this?

24. Ships will come from the coast of Kittim; they will afflict Asshur and Eber, but they too will come to destruction.

25. Balaam then arose and went back to his homeland, and Balak also went his way.
