Numbers 24:6
As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river’s side, as the trees of lign aloes which the LORD hath planted, and as cedar trees beside the waters.
KJV
ut valles nemorosæ, ut horti juxta fluvios irrigui, ut tabernacula quæ fixit Dominus, quasi cedri prope aquas.
Vulgate
ὡς νάπαι σκιάζουσαι, καὶ ὡσεὶ παράδεισος ἐπὶ ποταμῶν· καὶ ὡσεὶ σκηναὶ ἃς ἔπηξεν Κύριος, ὡσεὶ κέδροι παρ’ ὕδατα.
LXX
As valleys are they spread forth, As gardens by the river-side, As lign-aloes which Jehovah hath planted, As cedar-trees beside the waters.
