Numbers 23:21

Read in context

Numbers 23:19–23 · Berean Standard Bible

19 God is not a man, that He should lie, or a son of man, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and not act? Does He promise and not fulfill?

20 I have indeed received a command to bless; He has blessed, and I cannot change it.

21 He considers no disaster for Jacob; He sees no trouble for Israel. The LORD their God is with them, and the shout of the King is among them.

22 God brought them out of Egypt with strength like a wild ox.

23 For there is no spell against Jacob and no divination against Israel. It will now be said of Jacob and Israel, ‘What great things God has done!’
