Idisu 23
1 Ba: ila: me da Ba: ila: gema amane sia: i, “Na hou fidima: ne, goeguda: oloda agoane gaguma. Amola bulamagau gawali fesuale amola sibi gawali fesuale agoane, goeguda: gaguli misa!”
And Balaam said to Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams.
2 Ba: ila: ge da ea sia: i defele hamoi. Ba: ila: ge amola Ba: ila: me ela da bulamagau gawali amola sibi gawali amo oloda afae afae amoga gobele sali.
And Balak did as Balaam had spoken. And Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bullock and a ram.
3 Amalalu, Ba: ila: me da Ba: ila: gema amane sia: i, “Goeguda: dia gobei iasu gadenene leloma. Na da asili, Hina Gode da nama gousa: ma: bela: le, amo na da hogomu. Ea nama sia: mu liligi huluane na da dima olelemu.” Amaiba: le, e da hisu agoloba: le heda: le, agolo da: iya gado lelu,
And Balaam said to Balak, Stand by thy burnt offering, and I will go. Perhaps Jehovah will come to meet me, and whatever he shows me I will tell thee. And he went to a bare height.
4 Gode da ema misi. Ba: ila: me da Godema amane sia: i, “Na da oloda fesuale gaguli, amo afae afae da: iya bulamagau gawali amola sibi gawali amo gobele sali.”
And God met Balaam, and he said to him, I have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered up a bullock and a ram on every altar.
5 Hina Gode da Ba: ila: mema ea sia: mu liligi olelelalu, Ba: ila: gema bu sia: musa: asunasi.
And Jehovah put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return to Balak, and thus thou shall speak.
6 Amaiba: le, e da buhagili, Ba: ila: ge amola Moua: be ouligisu dunu huluane ea gobei iasu gadenene lelebe ba: i.
And he returned to him. And, lo, he was standing by his burnt offering, he, and all the rulers of Moab.
7 Ba: ila: me da ea ba: la: lusu amoga amane sia: i, “Ba: ila: ge, Moua: be hina da na goeguda: oule misi. Na da eso mabe goumi soge, Silia soge amoga misi. ‘Na fidima: ne sia: musa: misa’ e sia: i. ‘Isala: ili fi dunu ilima gagabusu aligima: ne ilegema!’
And he took up his oracle, and said, From Aram Balak has brought me, the king of Moab from the mountains of the East. Come, curse Jacob for me, and come, defy Israel.
8 Be na da habodane Gode Ea gagabui hame ilegei dunu ilima gagabusu aligima: ne ilegema: bela: ? Na da habodane amo dunu fi wadela: lesima: ne sia: ma: bela: ? Bai Gode da amo dunu fi wadela: lesima: ne hame sia: i.
How shall I curse, whom God has not cursed? And how shall I defy, whom Jehovah has not defied?
9 Na da gado heda: le, gele da: iya amogai aligili, amo fi ba: sa. Na da agolo da: iya gadonini ili ba: lala. Ilia da fi amo da hisu esala. Ilia dawa: ! Hina Gode da ilima hahawane dogolegelema: ne hou, eno fifi asi gala ilima hahawanedogolegele hou baligisa, amo ilima i dagoi.
For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him. Lo, it is a people that dwells alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.
10 Isala: ili fi iligaga fi da osobo su agoane, bagohameba: le, ilia dunu idimu da hamedei. Na da bogosea, na da Gode Ea fi dunu afae defele bogomu da defea. Na da bogosea, na da olofole, dunu moloidafa bogomu da defea gala.”
Who can count the dust of Jacob, or number the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!
11 Amalalu, Ba: ila: ge da Ba: ila: mema amane sia: i, “Di da nama adi hamobela: ? Na da di na ha lai dunu ilima gagabui aligima: ne ilegemusa: goeguda: oule misi. Be di da amo mae hamone, ilima hahawane dogolegele hou fawane aligima: ne ilegei dagoi.”
And Balak said to Balaam, What have thou done to me? I took thee to curse my enemies, and, behold, thou have blessed them altogether.
12 Ba: ila: me da bu adole i, “Na da Hina Gode Ea nama sia: i liligi amo fawane adomusa: dawa: !”
And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which Jehovah puts in my mouth?
13 Amalalu, Ba: ila: ge da Ba: ila: mema amane sia: i, “Eno sogebi amoga nama sigi misa. Amogawi, di da Isala: ili dunu ba: lalu, na fidima: ne, ilima gagabusu aligima: ne ilegema.”
And Balak said to him, Come, I pray thee, with me to another place, from where thou may see them. Thou shall see but the outmost part of them, and shall not see them all, and curse them for me from there.
14 E da Ba: ila: me amo Soufime sogebi Bisiga Goumi gadodili diala amoga oule asi. Amola amogawi e da oloda fesuale gaguli amola amo afae afae amoga bulamagau gawali amola sibi gawali gobele sali.
And he took him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered up a bullock and a ram on every altar.
15 Ba: ila: me da Ba: ila: gema amane sia: i, “Goeguda: dia gobei iasu gadenene leloma. Amola na da ga (south) asili, Gode gousa: mu.”
And he said to Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering, while I meet Jehovah yonder.
16 Hina Gode da Ba: ila: mema misini, ea sia: mu liligi ema olelei. E da amo Ba: ila: gema olelema: ne, bu asunasi.
And Jehovah met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Return to Balak, and thus shall thou speak.
17 Amaiba: le, Ba: ila: me da buhagili, Ba: ila: ge amola Moua: be ouligisu dunu, ea gobei iasu gadenene lelebe ba: i. Ba: ila: ge da Hina Gode Ea sia: ne iasu amo ema adole ba: i.
And he came to him. And, lo, he was standing by his burnt offering, and the rulers of Moab with him. And Balak said to him, What has Jehovah spoken?
18 Amalalu, Ba: ila: me da ea ba: la: lusu amane sia: i, “Ba: ila: ge, Sibo ea mano! Misa! Na sia: nabima!
And he took up his oracle, and said, Rise up, Balak, and hear. Hearken to me, thou son of Zippor.
19 Osobo bagade dunu da ogogosu dawa: Be Gode da ogogosu hamedafa dawa. Osobo bagade dunu da ilia asigi dawa: su hedolo afadenesa. Be Gode da agoai hame dawa: Gode da Ea ilegei sia: amo huluane hamosa. E da sia: sea, Ea sia: i liligi da hamoi dagoi ba: sa.
God is not a man, that he should lie, neither the son of man, that he should repent. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not make it good?
20 E da nama hahawane dogolegele sia: fawane sia: ma: ne sia: i. Amo Gode da hahawane dogolegele aligima: ne sia: sea, na da amo sia: bu afadenemu hame dawa:
Behold, I have received to bless. And he has blessed, and I cannot reverse it.
21 Na da agoane ba: sa. Isala: ili fi ilia hobea misunu hou amo ganodini da se nabasu amola bidi hamosu hame ba: mu. Bai Hina Gode, ilia Gode, da ili esala. E da ilia Hina Bagadedafa, ilia da amane wele sisia: sa.
He has not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither has he seen perverseness in Israel. Jehovah his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.
22 Gode da ili Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, goeguda: oule misi. E da sigua bulamagau defele, ili fidima: ne gegenana.
God brings them forth out of Egypt. He has as it were the strength of the wild-ox.
23 Isala: ili dunu hasalimusa: da wamuni dawa: su o yagono hou hamomu da hamedei. Wali dunu huluane da Isala: ili ea hou ba: sea amane sia: mu, ‘Ba: ma! Gode Ea hamoi ba: ma!’
Surely there is no enchantment with Jacob, neither is there any divination with Israel. Now it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What has God wrought!
24 Isala: ili fi da gasa bagade laione wa: me agoane. E da mae helefili, hu dodosa: sa amola naha amola medole legei liligi ea maga: me naha. Mai dagoiba: le fawane helefisa.”
Behold, the people rise up as a lioness, and as a lion he lifts himself up. He shall not lie down until he eats of the prey, and drinks the blood of the slain.
25 Amalalu, Ba: ila: ge da Ba: ila: mema amane sia: i, “Di da Isala: ili dunu ilima gagabusu aligima: ne ilegemusa: higasa. Defea! Be ilima hahawane dogolegele hou maedafa aligima: ne ilegema!”
And Balak said to Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.
26 Be Ba: ila: me da amane bu adole i, “Na da dima sia: i dagoi! Na da Hina Gode nama sia: i liligi fawane hamomusa: defele gala!”
But Balaam answered and said to Balak, Did I not tell thee, saying, All that Jehovah speaks, that I must do?
27 Ba: ila: ge da amane sia: i, “Ania da eno sogebi amoga ahoa: di! Amabela: ? Gode da di amoga Isala: ili dunu gagabusu aligima: ne ilegemusa: , amogawi dia logo doasima: bela: ?”
And Balak said to Balaam, Come now, I will take thee to another place. Perhaps it will please God that thou may curse them for me from there.
28 Amaiba: le, e da Ba: ila: me amo oule asili, Bio Goumi amoba: le heda: i. Amogawi, wadela: i hafoga: i soge da elea midadi gududi ba: i.
And Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor, that looks down upon the desert.
29 Ba: ila: me da ema amane sia: i, “Goeguda: oloda fesuale agoane gaguli, nama bulamagau gawali fesuale gala amola sibi gawali fesuale gala amo gaguli misa.”
And Balaam said to Balak, Build for me here seven altars, and prepare for me here seven bullocks and seven rams.
30 Ba: ila: ge da ea sia: i defele hamoi. E da oloda afae afae amoga bulamagau gawali afae amola sibi gawali afae gobele sali.
And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered up a bullock and a ram on every altar.
