Balak
Balak had no reason, Ramban points out,
He really had nothing to worry about,
We reached out in peace as we came near,
So what in the world did he have to fear?
We were many, and Moav was small,
That, in itself, didn’t matter at all,
HaShem had forbidden for us to attack,
The Children of Lot…but we could fight back.
Yet he called upon Bilaam, the Midianite,
With his koach hatuma, like Kryptonite,
To curse and defeat us, but Bilaam perceived,
Blessings, not curses, in the words he received.
It’s often the case, as we see in our time,
That those who oppose us, will often assign,
To us, the atrocities they have rehearsed,
If ,חו״ח, our roles were reversed. *
