Kwan 24
1 Omiyo kane Balaam oneno ni berne Jehova Nyasaye mondo ogwedh Israel, ne ok otimo tim jwok kaka ne osetimo e kinde mokalo, to nolokore kongʼiyo yo thim.
Afei, Balaam huu sɛ ɛsɔ Awurade ani sɛ ohyira Israel no, wankɔ abisa sɛnea ɔtaa yɛ no; mmom, ɔtoo nʼani hwɛɛ sare no so.
2 Kane Balaam ongʼiyo oko mi oneno jo-Israel kochokore e dhoot ka dhoot, Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro kuome
Bere a Balaam huu sɛ Israelfo no abobɔ wɔn atenae sɛnea wɔn mmusuakuw te no, Onyankopɔn honhom baa ne so,
3 mi nochiwo ote mare kama: “Ote Balaam wuod Beor, ote mar ngʼat ma wengene neno maber,
na eyi ne nkɔmhyɛ a ɔmae: “Beor ba Balaam nkɔmhyɛ, nkɔmhyɛ a efi obi a nʼani hu ade yiye,
4 ote mar ngʼat mawinjo weche Nyasaye, ngʼat maneno fweny moa kuom Nyasaye Maratego, ngʼat mopodho piny auma, kendo ma wengene oyawore.
nea ɔte Onyankopɔn nsɛm nkɔmhyɛ; nea onya anisoadehu a efi Otumfo no hɔ; na ɔda fam, a nʼani hu ade:
5 “Mano kaka hembe magi ber neno, yaye Jakobo, kuondeni mag dak, yaye Israel!
“Yakob, mo ntamadan yɛ fɛ, Israel, mo atenae yɛ ahomeka!
6 “Gilandore ka holni, mana ka puothe mantiere e bath aora, mana ka mane-mane ma Jehova Nyasaye opidho, bende mana ka yiend sida mopidh but pi.
“Ɛtrɛtrɛw sɛ abon, sɛ nturo a ɛwɔ asubɔnten ho. Wɔte sɛ pɛprɛ a Awurade adua, te sɛ sida a esisi nsu ho.
7 Pi ma aa e dapigeni biro pongʼ mao oko; kendo kothgi nochal gi pi mabubni. “Ruodhgi nobed gi teko moloyo Agag; pinyruodhgi notingʼ malo.
Nsu bɛsen afi wɔn ahina mu. Wɔn aba benya nsu ama aboro so. “Wɔn hene bɛyɛ kɛse asen Agag; wɔn ahenni bɛkorɔn.
8 “Nyasaye nogologi Misri; kendo gin gi teko machalo mar jowi. Gikidho oganda jowasikgi kendo gituro chokegi matindo tindo; kendo gichwowogi gi aserni mag-gi.
“Onyankopɔn de wɔn fii Misraim na ɛbae; wɔwɔ ahoɔden sɛ wuram nantwi. Wɔsɛe atirimɔdenfo aman na wobubu wɔn nnompe mu asinasin, wɔde wɔn bɛmma wowɔ wɔn.
9 Gilidho ka ginindo piny mana ka sibuor madichwo, bende mana ka sibuor madhako maonge ngʼama nyalo chiewo? “Mad joma ogwedhi gwedhi to joma kwongʼi mondo okwongʼ!”
Wobutuw da sɛ gyata; te sɛ gyatabere, hena na obetumi agyigye wɔn? “Wobehyira wɔn a wohyira wo, na wɔbɛdome wɔn a wɔdome wo.”
10 Eka Balak nobedo gi mirima mager gi Balaam. Noriwo lwetene kanyakla mi owachone niya, “Ne aomi mondo ikwongʼna wasika, to isemana gwedhogi ndalo adekgi.
Balak bo fuw Balaam. Ɔbɔɔ ne nsam guu ne so kae se, “Mefrɛɛ wo se bɛdome mʼatamfo, nanso woahyira wɔn mprɛnsa yi nyinaa.
11 Koro aa sani sani mondo idhi dala! Ne awachoni ni abiro miyi chudo maber, to Jehova Nyasaye osetami yudo chudono.”
Fi ha kɔ wo nkyi ntɛm! Mekae se mɛkyɛ wo ade a ɛsom bo nanso, Awurade amma woannya akyɛde no.”
12 Balaam nodwoko Balak niya, “Donge ne anyiso joote mane ioro ira niya,
Balaam buaa no se, “So manka ankyerɛ abɔfo a wosomaa wɔn baa me nkyɛn no se,
13 ‘Kata bed ni Balak ne miya ode mar ruoth mopongʼ gi fedha gi dhahabu, to ne ok anyal timo gimoro amora gi pacha awuon mopogore gi chik Jehova Nyasaye bed ni ber kata rach?’
‘Sɛ Balak ma me dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a ɛwɔ nʼahemfi hɔ nyinaa koraa a, minni tumi sɛ mɛyɛ biribi atia Awurade ahyɛde, sɛ ɛyɛ papa anaa bɔne.’ Mmom nea Awurade aka no nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ meka.
14 Koro adok ir jowa, to kapok adhi to we anyisi gima jo-Israel biro timo, asiemi kuom gik ma jogi biro timo ne jogi e ndalo mabiro.”
Afei, meresan akɔ me nkurɔfo nkyɛn. Nanso ma menka nea Israelfo no bɛyɛ wo nkurɔfo no daakye no nkyerɛ wo.”
15 Eka Balaam nohulo ote moa kuom Nyasaye kama: “Ote mar Balaam wuod Beor, ote mar ngʼat man-gi wangʼ maneno ler,
Eyi ne nkɔmhyɛ a Balaam de mae: “Beor ba Balaam nkɔmhyɛ, nkɔmhyɛ a efi ɔbarima a nʼani hu ade yiye,
16 ote mar ngʼat mawinjo weche Nyasaye, ngʼat man-gi rieko moa kuom Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo, ngʼat maneno fweny moa kuom Nyasaye Maratego, ngʼat moriere piny auma, kendo ma wengene oyawore.
nea ɔte Onyankopɔn nsɛm no nkɔmhyɛ, nea ɔwɔ nimdeɛ a efi Ɔsorosoroni no hɔ, nea onya anisoadehu a efi Otumfo no hɔ, na ɔda fam, a nʼani hu ade no:
17 “Anene, to ok sani; asudo machiegni, to ok bute. Sulwe biro wuok koa kuom Jakobo; ludh loch biro wuok ei Israel. Obiro toyo wiye jo-Moab, kod wiye yawuot Sheth duto.
“Mihu no, nanso ɛnyɛ mprempren; mehwɛ no, nanso ɔmmɛn. Nsoromma bepue afi Yakob mu; ahempema bepue afi Israel mu. Ɔbɛdwerɛw Moabfo ti, Moabfo nyinaa tikora.
18 Obiro loyo piny jo-Edom e lweny mi okaw; kendo Seir ma wasike, nokaw, to Israel nomed bedo motegno.
Wɔbɛfa Edom, na Seir a ɔyɛ ne tamfo no, wobedi ne so nkonim, na Israel bɛkɔ so ayɛ den.
19 Jatelo noa e oganda joka Jakobo, kendo enotiek joma otony mag dala maduongʼ.”
Ɔhene bi bɛsɔre wɔ Yakob mu ɔno na ɔbɛsɛe kurow no mu nkaefo.”
20 Eka Balaam noneno Amalek kendo nowachone ote mar Nyasaye kama: “Amalek ema ne okwongo kuom ogendini, to gikone ibiro tieke.”
Afei, Balaam hwɛɛ Amalekfo na ɔhyɛɛ nkɔm: “Amalek na na ɔyɛ aman nyinaa abakan, nanso nʼawiei bɛyɛ ɔsɛe pasaa.”
21 Eka noneno jo-Keni kendo ochiwo oteneni: “Kar dak mari nigi kwe, kari mar pondo ni e bwo lwanda;
Afei, ohuu Kenifo, na ɔhyɛɛ ne nkɔm: “Mo atenae wɔ bammɔ, wɔanwen mo berebuw wɔ abotan mu;
22 kata kamano un jo-Keni ibiro negu ndalo ma Ashur oterou e twech.”
Nanso wɔbɛsɛe mo Kenifo bere a Asur fa mo nnommum no.”
23 Eka nochiwo otene niya, “Yaye, en ngʼa manyalo bedo mangima ka Nyasaye otimo ma?
Afei ɔhyɛɛ ne nkɔm: “Aa! Sɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ sɛɛ a, hena na ɔbɛtena nkwa mu?
24 Yiedhi madongo mathoth nobi koa e dho nam mar Kitim; gibiro mako Ashur kod Eber, to kata gin bende ibiro tiekgi.”
Ahyɛn befi Kipro mpoano aba; wobedi Eber ne Asur so. Nanso wɔn nso, wɔbɛsɛe wɔn pasaa.”
25 Eka Balaam noa malo mi odok dala kendo Balak bende nodhi e yore owuon.
Afei, Balaam sɔree na ɔsan kɔɔ ne kurom, na Balak nso kɔɔ ne kwan.
