Numbers 22
1 And the children of Israel journeyed, and encamped in the plains of Moab on the other side of the Jordan from Jericho.
Isarel catounnaw teh pou a cei awh teh, Jeriko kho namran lah Jordan palang na ran Moab tanghling dawk a roe awh.
2 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.
Zippor capa Balak ni Isarelnaw ni Amornaw lathueng a sak e naw pueng a thai.
3 And Moab was much afraid of the people, because they were many; and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel.
Tamimaya hah apap poung dawkvah, Moab ni taki lah a taki katang. Isarelnaw kecu dawk Moab teh kângairu lah ao.
4 And Moab said to the elders of Midian, Now will this company lick up all that is round about us, as an ox licks up the green herb of the field. Now Balak the son of Zippor was king of Moab at that time.
Hottelah Moab ni Midian a lungkahanaw koe Maito ni hram koung a ai e patetlah hete taminaw ni kaimae tengpam e taminaw pueng koung a i han doeh telah ati. Hote tueng navah Zippor capa Balak teh Moab siangpahrang lah ao.
5 And he sent messengers to Balaam the son of Beor, to Pethor, which is on the river in the land of the children of his people, to call him, saying, Behold, a people is come out from Egypt; behold, they cover the face of the land, and they abide over against me.
Ahni ni khenhaw! miphun buet touh Izip ram hoi ka tâcawt e ao teh, talai dawk muen a kawi awh. Kaimouh rahak vah sut ao awh. Pahren lahoi tho nateh hetnaw heh thoebo haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh kai hane teh a thasaipoung awh.
6 And now come, I pray thee, curse me this people; for they are mightier than I: perhaps I may be able to smite them, and drive them out of the land; for I know that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed.
Ahnimanaw tâ vaiteh ram dawk hoi ka pâlei thai yawkaw han kai ma. Bangkongtetpawiteh, yawhawi na poe e teh yawhawi e lah ao, thoe na bo e pueng teh thoebo lah ao tie ka panue, telah kaw hanelah na catounnaw a onae ram, palang teng vah, Pethor e Beor capa Balaam koevah patounenaw a patoun.
7 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed, having the rewards of divination in their hand. And they came to Balaam, and spoke to him the words of Balak.
Hatdawkvah, Moab a lungkahanaw hoi Midian a lungkahanaw teh thoebo sak phu poe hanelah tadawnghno sin hoi a cei awh teh, Balaam koe a pha awh. Balak ni lawkthui e hah a dei pouh awh.
8 And he said to them, Lodge here this night, and I will bring you word again, according as Jehovah shall speak unto me. And the princes of Moab abode with Balaam.
Ahni ni, atu tangmin lah teh awi hi vah roe awh. BAWIPA ni na dei pouh e patetlah nangmouh koe lawk na thui awh han telah atipouh. Hottelah, Moab tami kalennaw teh Balaam koe a roe awh.
9 And God came to Balaam, and said, Who are these men with thee?
Balaam koe Cathut a tho teh nang koe kaawm e taminaw heh bangpatetnaw maw, telah atipouh.
10 And Balaam said to God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto me,
Balaam ni Cathut koevah, Zippor capa Moab siangpahrang Balak ni kai koevah,
11 Behold, a people is come out of Egypt, and it covers the face of the land. Now come, curse me them: perhaps I may be able to fight against them, and drive them out.
khenhaw! Izip ram hoi ka tho e miphun ni talai dawk muen a kawi awh. Ahnimouh ka tâ vaiteh, ka pâlei thai nahanelah thoe na bo pouh haw, a titeh, taminaw a patoun e doeh telah atipouh.
12 And God said to Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people; for they are blessed.
Cathut ni Balaam koevah, ahnimouh koe cet hanh, hotnaw teh thoe hai bo hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh teh yawkahawi e tami doeh, telah atipouh.
13 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and said to the princes of Balak, Go into your land; for Jehovah refuses to give me leave to go with you.
Balaam teh amom a thaw teh Balak e tamikalennaw koe, na ram lah ban awh leih, bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni nangmouh koe cei hanlah na pasoung hoeh telah ati.
14 And the princes of Moab rose up; and they went to Balak, and said, Balaam has refused to come with us.
Moab tamikalennaw teh, a thaw awh teh Balak koevah a cei awh. Ahni koe Balaam ni maimouh koe kâbang ngai hoeh atipouh.
15 Then sent Balak yet again princes, more, and more honourable than they.
Balak ni ahnimouh hlak kapap, ahnimouh hlak minhmai khet kaawm, tamikalennaw hah bout a patoun.
16 And they came to Balaam, and said to him, Thus says Balak the son of Zippor: Suffer not thyself, I pray thee, to be restrained from coming to me;
Balaam koevah, a pha awh teh, Zippor capa Balak ni telah ati, kai koe na kâbang hane bang ni hai na ngang hanh naseh.
17 for very highly will I honour thee, and whatever thou shalt say to me will I do; come therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, barilawa kaawm lah na tawm katang han, kai koe na dei e pueng ka sak han, hatdawkvah, tho nateh hetnaw heh thoe na bo pouh haw ati telah ati.
18 And Balaam answered and said to the servants of Balak, If Balak give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not go beyond the commandment of Jehovah my God, to do less or more.
Balaam ni Balak e sannaw hah a pathung teh ahnimouh koe Balak ni a im hoi athung vah sui ngun khakkawi lah na poe han nakunghai, BAWIPA ka Cathut lawk hloilah banghai ka sak thai hoeh.
19 And now, I pray you, abide ye also here this night, and I shall know what Jehovah will say to me further.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni kai koe bangmaw bout a dei han, atu tangmin teh hi roe awh ei telah atipouh.
20 Then God came to Balaam at night, and said to him, If the men have come to call thee, rise up, [and] go with them; but only what I shall say unto thee shalt thou do.
Hat hnin tangmin vah Balaam koe Cathut a tho teh, ahnimouh koe, hetnaw heh nang na kaw hanlah tho pawiteh, thaw nateh ahnimouh koe kâbang. Hatei nang koe ka dei e dueng na sak han, telah atipouh.
21 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes of Moab.
Balaam teh amom vah a thaw teh, la hah a rakueng, Moab tamikalennaw koevah a kâbang.
22 And God's anger was kindled because he went; and the Angel of Jehovah set himself in the way to withstand him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two young men were with him.
Hottelah, a cei kecu dawkvah, Cathut lungkhueknae a kaman teh, BAWIPA kalvantami teh ama ngang hanelah lam dawk sut a kangdue. Ama teh la dawk kâcui niteh, a san kahni touh hoi haw vah ao.
23 And the ass saw the Angel of Jehovah standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand; and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field, and Balaam smote the ass to turn her into the way.
La ni BAWIPA kalvantami ni tahloi patuep hoi lam dawk a kangdue e hah a hmu teh, lam a phen teh kahrawng lahoi a cei. Hottelah Balaam ni la teh lam dawk ban hanelah a hem.
24 And the Angel of Jehovah stood in a hollow of the vineyards, a wall being on this side, and a wall on that side.
BAWIPA kalvantami teh misur takha hoi takha rahak e lam koe bout a kangdue.
25 And the ass saw the Angel of Jehovah, and she pressed herself against the wall, and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall; and he smote her again.
La ni BAWIPA kalvantami hah bout a hmu toteh, misur takha rai lah a kâhnawn dawkvah, Balaam khok pak a kuen. Balaam ni bout a hemkhai.
26 Then the Angel of Jehovah went still further, and stood in a narrow place, where was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left.
BAWIPA kalvantami ni teh, a hmalah rek bout a cusin teh avoilah, aranglah kamheithaihoehnae lamceknae koe a kangdue pouh.
27 And the ass saw the Angel of Jehovah, and lay down under Balaam; and Balaam's anger was kindled, and he smote the ass with his staff.
La ni, BAWIPA kalvantami hah a hmu teh Balaam teh rawk a tabo khai. Hahoi, Balaam a lungkhuek teh, a sonron hoi la teh a hem.
28 And Jehovah opened the mouth of the ass, and she said to Balaam, What have I done to thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times?
BAWIPA ni la hah a lawk a thosak. Balaam koevah nang na tak dawk bangmaw ka sak, vai thum touh totouh kai na hemkhai telah atipouh.
29 And Balaam said to the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in my hand, for now would I kill thee!
Balaam ni la koevah, nang ni kai na noutna hoeh teyaw, tahloi ka sin nah pawiteh, na thei han ei nan maw atipouh.
30 And the ass said to Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine to this day? was I ever wont to do so to thee? And he said, No.
La ni Balaam koevah, sahnin totouh na kâcui e la nahoehmaw. Hettelah nang koe ouk ka sak boimaw, telah ati. Ahni ni na sak boihoeh bokheiyah telah atipouh.
31 Then Jehovah opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the Angel of Jehovah standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand; and he bowed and prostrated himself on his face.
BAWIPA ni Balaam mit hah a ang sak teh, BAWIPA kalvantami tahloi hoi lam dawk sut a kangdue e hah a hmu. A saling teh talai dawk minhmai rek kâbet lah a tabo.
32 And the Angel of Jehovah said to him, Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass these three times? behold, it was I who came forth to withstand thee, for the way [thou walkest in] is for ruin before me.
BAWIPA kalvantami ni ahni koe, bangkongmaw, vai thum totouh la na hem. Khenhaw! na cei hoeh nahan koelah na cei kecu dawkvah, nang ngang hanlah ka tâco.
33 And the ass saw me, and turned from me these three times; had she not turned from me, I had now certainly slain thee, and saved her alive.
La ni na hmu teh ka hmalah vai thum touh na roun. Na roun hoehpawiteh, la teh thet hoeh vaiteh, nang nama nouh thei lah na awm ei ti heh ma, telah atipouh.
34 And Balaam said to the Angel of Jehovah, I have sinned; for I knew not that thou stoodest in the way against me; and now, if it be evil in thine eyes, I will get me back again.
Balaam ni BAWIPA kalvantami koevah, ka yon toe, bangkongtetpawiteh, kai taranlahoi lam na kangdue tie ka panuek hoeh, hatdawkvah na lunghawihoeh pawiteh ka ban han telah atipouh.
35 And the Angel of Jehovah said to Balaam, Go with the men, but only the word that I shall speak unto thee, that shalt thou speak. And Balaam went with the princes of Balak.
BAWIPA e kalvantami ni Balaam koevah, hetnaw koe vah cet, hateiteh, nang koe ka dei e dueng ahnimouh koe na dei pouh han telah atipouh. Hahoi teh, Balaam teh Balak e tami kalennaw koe a cei.
36 And when Balak heard that Balaam came, he went out to meet him, to the city of Moab, which is on the border of the Arnon, which is at the extremity of the border.
Balak ni Balaam a tho tie hah a panue toteh, Arnon koelae ramri Moab khopui totouh a dawn awh.
37 And Balak said to Balaam, Did I not earnestly send to thee to call thee? why didst thou not come to me? am I not surely able to honour thee?
Balak ni Balaam koevah, atangcalah nang la hanlah tami ka patoun nahoehmaw. Bangkongmaw kai koe na tho ngai hoeh. Tamikalen poung lah na coung sak thai mahoeh maw, telah atipouh.
38 And Balaam said to Balak, Lo, I am come to thee; but shall I now be able at all to say anything? the word that God puts in my mouth, that shall I speak.
Balaam ni Balak koevah, khenhaw! nang koe vah ka tho toe. Bang hno pueng deithainae kâ ka tawn na maw. Cathut ni ka pahni dawk a ta e dueng doeh ka dei tih, telah ati.
39 And Balaam went with Balak, and they came to Kirjath-huzoth.
Hottelah Balaam teh Balak koe a cei teh, Kiriath-huzoth vah a pha awh.
40 And Balak offered oxen and small cattle, and sent to Balaam and to the princes that were with him.
Balak ni maito hoi tu hoi thuengnae a sak. Balaam hoi ama koe kaawm e tamikalennaw koe youn touh a poe.
41 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up to the high places of Baal, and he saw from thence the extremity of the people.
Hahoi a tangtho vah, Balak ni Balaam a hrawi teh, tamimaya hah pâtue hanelah, Baal hmuenrasang koe a luenkhai.
