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!”
Balaam said to Balak, “Build here seven altars for me, and prepare here seven bulls and seven rams for me.”
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.
Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bull 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,
Balaam said to Balak, “Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go. Perhaps the LORD will come to meet me. Whatever he shows me I will tell you.” 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.”
God met Balaam, and he said to him, “I have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered up a bull 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.
The LORD put a word in Balaam’s mouth, and said, “Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak.”
6 Amaiba: le, e da buhagili, Ba: ila: ge amola Moua: be ouligisu dunu huluane ea gobei iasu gadenene lelebe ba: i.
He returned to him, and behold, he was standing by his burnt offering, he, and all the princes 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!’
He took up his parable, and said, “From Aram has Balak brought me, the king of Moab from the mountains of the East. Come, curse Jacob for me. 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? How shall I defy whom the LORD 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. From the hills I see him. Behold, it is a people that dwells alone, and shall not be listed amongst 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 count the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous! 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.”
Balak said to Balaam, “What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and behold, you 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: !”
He answered and said, “Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD 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.”
Balak said to him, “Please come with me to another place, where you may see them. You shall see just part of them, and shall not see them all. Curse them from there for me.”
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.
He took him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered up a bull 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.”
He said to Balak, “Stand here by your burnt offering, while I meet God over there.”
16 Hina Gode da Ba: ila: mema misini, ea sia: mu liligi ema olelei. E da amo Ba: ila: gema olelema: ne, bu asunasi.
The LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, “Return to Balak, and say this.”
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.
He came to him, and behold, he was standing by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with him. Balak said to him, “What has the LORD spoken?”
18 Amalalu, Ba: ila: me da ea ba: la: lusu amane sia: i, “Ba: ila: ge, Sibo ea mano! Misa! Na sia: nabima!
He took up his parable, and said, “Rise up, Balak, and hear! Listen to me, you 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, nor a son of man, that he should repent. Has he said, and he won’t do it? Or has he spoken, and he won’t 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 a command to bless. He has blessed, and I can’t 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 seen iniquity in Jacob. Neither has he seen perverseness in Israel. The LORD his God is with him. The shout of a king is amongst 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 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 done!’
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, a people rises up as a lioness. 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!”
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 Balak, “Didn’t I tell you, saying, ‘All that the LORD 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: ?”
Balak said to Balaam, “Come now, I will take you to another place; perhaps it will please God that you 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.
Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor, that looks down on 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.”
Balaam said to Balak, “Build seven altars for me here, and prepare seven bulls and seven rams for me here.”
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.
Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered up a bull and a ram on every altar.
