In the vision of Balaam recorded in the Book of Numbers 24:4 and 16, the vision comes from Shaddai along with El. In the fragmentary inscriptions at Deir Alla, though "Shaddai" is not, or not fully present,[4] shaddayin[5] appear (שדין‎, the vowels are uncertain, as is the gemination of the "d"), perhaps lesser figurations of Shaddai.[6] These have been tentatively identified with the ŝedim (שדים‎) of Deuteronomy 32:17 and Psalm 106:37–38,[7] who are Canaanite deities.
