17 I will see him, but not now;

I will behold him, but not soon.

A star+ will come out of Jacob,

And a scepter+ will rise out of Israel.+

And he will certainly break apart the forehead of Moʹab*+

And the skull of all the sons of tumult.

 2 So I will send a fire into Moʹab,

And it will consume the fortified towers of Keʹri·oth;+

Moʹab will die amid an uproar,

With a war cry, with the sound of a horn.+
