Idisu 24
1 Be wali, Ba: ila: me da Hina Gode da Ea Isala: ili dunu ilima hahawane dogolegele aligima: ne ilegemu fawane hanai, amo e dawa: i galu. Amaiba: le, ea musa: hou defele hame hamoi. E da dawa: digima: ne olelesu liligi amo hogomusa: hame asi. E da hafoga: i soge ba: musa: sinidigili,
Now when Balaam saw that it was the Lord's pleasure to give his blessing to Israel, he did not, as at other times, make use of secret arts, but turning his face to the waste land,
2 Isala: ili dunu ilia fisisu ba: i. E da ilia sosogo fi afae afae dafulili esalebe ba: i. Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa da ema aligila sa: ili,
And lifting up his eyes, he saw Israel there, with their tents in the order of their tribes: and the spirit of God came on him.
3 e da amo ba: la: lusu sia: i, “Ba: ila: me, Bio ea mano, da moloiwane ba: sa. Ea sia: da agoane gala.
And moved by the spirit, he said, These are the words of Balaam, son of Beor, the words of the man whose eyes are open:
4 Nowa da Gode Ea sia: dalebe nababela: ? Na da si godonasini agoane sosodosa. Na da esala ba: lala, Gode Bagadedafa da nama olelesa.
He says, whose ears are open to the words of God, who has seen the vision of the Ruler of all, falling down, but having his eyes open:
5 Isala: ili ilia abula diasu da isisima: goi ba: sa.
How fair are your tents, O Jacob, your houses, O Israel!
6 Ilia da gumudi yobo dadalei sedade defele. O ifabi hano bega: bugi agoane ba: sa. Ilia da gabusiga: ifa Hina Gode Ea bugi defele, o dolo ifa, hano bega: lelebe agoane ba: sa.
They are stretched out like valleys, like gardens by the riverside, like flowering trees planted by the Lord, like cedar-trees by the waters.
7 Ilia da gibu dabe bagade ba: mu. Ilia da hawa: amo nasegagi hano bagade soge ganodini bugimu. Ilia hina bagade da A: iga: ge ea hou bagadewane baligimu. Ea ouligisu hou da soge bagohame amoga heda: mu.
Peoples will be in fear before his strength, his arm will be on great nations: his king will be higher than Agag, and his kingdom made great in honour.
8 Gode da ili Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, oule misi. E da sigua bulamagau defele, ili fidima: ne gegenana. Ilia da ilia ha lai dunu amo na dagosa. Ilia da ilia gasa goudasa amola ilia dadi wadela: lesisa.
It is God who has taken him out of Egypt; his horns are like those of the mountain ox; the nations warring against him will be his food, their bones will be broken, they will be wounded with his arrows.
9 Isala: ili fi da gasa bagade laione wa: me agoane. E da golai dialea, dunu eno da beda: iba: le, hamedafa didilisisa. Nowa da Isala: ili hahawane dogolegelewane aligima: ne ilegesea, da Gode Ea hahawane dogolegesu ba: mu. Amola nowa da Isala: ili ilima gagabusu aligima: ne ilegesea, da amo gagabusu sinidigili hihima aligima: ne ilegei dagoi ba: mu.”
He took his sleep stretched out like a lion, and like a she-lion: by whom will his rest be broken? May a blessing be on everyone who gives you blessing, and a curse on everyone by whom you are cursed.
10 Ba: ila: ge da ougili ea lobo usuna gaguli, Ba: ila: mema amane sia: i, “Na da di na ha lai dunu amo gagabusu aligima: ne ilegema sia: i. Be udiana agoane di da amo mae hamone, ilima Gode Ea hahawane dogolegesu hou aligima: ne sia: i dagoi.
Then Balak was full of wrath against Balaam, and angrily waving his hands he said to Balaam, I sent for you so that those who are against me might be cursed, but now, see, three times you have given them a blessing.
11 Dia diasuga masa! Na da dima bidi bagade imunu sia: i. Be Hina Gode da dia amo bidi lama: ne logo hedofai dagoi.”
Go back quickly to the place you came from: it was my purpose to give you a place of honour, but now the Lord has kept you back from honour.
12 Ba: ila: me da bu adole i, “Na da sia: ne iasu dunu di nama asunasi ilima olelei, amane,
Then Balaam said to Balak, Did I not say to the men you sent to me,
13 ‘Ba: ila: ge da silifa amola gouli ea hina bagade diasu ganodini gala amo huluanedafa nama ia: noba, na da ni hanaiga Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i fonobahadi nama sia: i amo giadofamu da hamedela: loba. Na da Hina Gode Ea nama sia: i liligi fawane bu sia: mu.”
Even if Balak gave me his house full of silver and gold, it would not be possible for me to go outside the orders of the Lord, doing good or evil at the impulse of my mind; whatever the Lord says I will say?
14 Ba: ila: me da Ba: ila: gema amane sia: i, “Na da wali na fidafa amoga buhagimu. Be hidadea, na da dima sisasu sia: mu. Amalu da fa: no Isala: ili dunu ilia hou dia fi dunuma hamomu, amo na da dima sia: mu.”
So now I will go back to my people: but first let me make clear to you what this people will do to your people in days to come.
15 Amalalu, e da amo ba: la: lusu amane sia: i, “Ba: ila: me, Bio ea mano, da moloiwane ba: sa. Ea sia: da agoane gala.
Then he went on with his story and said, These are the words of Balaam, the son of Beor, the words of him whose eyes are open:
16 Na da Gode Ea sia: dalebe naba. Na da si godonasini agoane sosodosa. Na da esalebe ba: lala, Gode Bagadedafa da nama olelesa.
He says, whose ear is open to the words of God, who has knowledge of the Most High, who has seen the vision of the Ruler of all, falling down and having his eyes open:
17 Na da hobea misunu hou ba: la: lala. Na da Isala: ili fi ba: sa. Hina Bagade dunu, hadigi bagade gasumuni agoai, amo fi ganodini heda: lebe ba: mu. E da ofa: su gasumuni defele Isala: ili sogega misunu. E da Moua: be ouligisu dunu famu amola Sede soge dunu amo banenesimu.
I see him, but not now: looking on him, but not near: a star will come out of Jacob, and a rod of authority out of Israel, sending destruction to the farthest limits of Moab and on the head of all the sons of Sheth.
18 E da ea ha lai dunu Idome sogega esala amo hasalili, ilia soge huluane suguli lamu. Amola Isala: ili dunu da hasaliliwane masunu.
Edom will be his heritage, and he will put an end to the last of the people of Seir.
19 Isala: ili fi dunu da ilia ha lai amo osa: le heda: le, dunu hame bogoi esalebe, amo huluane fane legemu.”
And Israel will go on in strength, and Jacob will have rule over his haters.
20 Amalalu, Ba: ila: ge da ea esala ba: su amo ganodini A: malege fi ba: lalu, amane ba: la: lusu sia: i, “A: malege ea gasa bagade hou da eno fi huluane baligi dagoi. Be fa: no e da gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu.”
Then, turning his eyes to Amalek, he went on with his story and said, Amalek was the first of the nations, but his part will be destruction for ever.
21 Amalalu, Ba: ila: ge da ea esalebe ba: su amo ganodini, Ginaide dunu fi ba: i. E da amo ba: la: lusu sia: i, “Dia esalebe sogebi da gaga: i dagoi. Sio ea bibi da gafulu bagade amoga bibiba: le, eno liligiga wadela: lesimu hamedei.
And looking on the Kenites he went on with his story and said, Strong is your living-place, and your secret place is safe in the rock.
22 Be dilia Ginaide dunu da gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu. Bai Asilia dunu da dili doagala: le, suguli lamu.”
But still the Kenites will be wasted, till Asshur takes you away prisoner.
23 Ba: ila: me da eno ba: la: lusu amane sia: i, “Dunu da gadili (north) amogawi gilisilalebe da nowa dunula: ?
Then he went on with his story and said, But who may keep his life when God does this?
24 Doagala: su golili dasu dunu da Saibalase sogega, dusagai ganodini manebe ba: mu. Ilia da Asilia amola Ibe amo hasalimu. Be Saibalase dunu amola da fa: no gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu.”
But ships will come from the direction of Kittim, troubling Asshur and troubling Eber, and like the others their fate will be destruction.
25 Amalalu, Ba: ila: me da momagele, hi diasuga buhagi. Amola Ba: ila: ge da hi logoga asi.
Then Balaam got up and went back to his place: and Balak went away.
