Latin (Vulgate)
Cumque vidisset Amalec, assumens parabolam, ait: Principium gentium Amalec, cujus extrema perdentur.
Y viendo á Amalec, tomó su parábola, y dijo: Amalec, cabeza de gentes; mas su postrimería perecerá para siempre.
Then Balaam saw Amalek and lifted up an oracle, saying: “ Amalek was first among the nations, but his end is destruction.”
