"How lovely are your tents, O Jacob! / Your dwellings, O Israel! / Like valleys that stretch out, / Like gardens by the riverside, / Like aloes planted by the Lord, / Like cedars beside the waters. / He shall pour water from his buckets, / And his seed shall be in many waters. / His king shall be higher than Agag, / And his kingdom shall be exalted. / God brings him out of Egypt; / He has strength like a wild ox; / He shall consume the nations, his enemies; / He shall break their bones / And pierce them with his arrows."
