Numbers 24
1 When Balaam saw that it pleased the Lord to blesse Israel, then he went not, as certaine times before, to set diuinations, but set his face toward the wildernesse.
Israel yoethen paek te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah hoeikhang tila Balaam loh a hmuh dongah lung te doe ham voei vai khaw cet pawh. Te dongah a maelhmai te khosoek la a khueh.
2 And Balaam lift vp his eyes, and looked vpon Israel, which dwelt according to their tribes, and the Spirit of God came vpon him.
Balaam loh a mik a huel vaengah Israel te amah koca la kho a sak tih Pathen Mueihla a soah a om te a hmuh.
3 And he vttered his parable, and sayd, Balaam the sonne of Beor hath sayde, and the man, whose eyes were shut vp, hath sayd,
Te vaengah a thuidoeknah te a poh tih Beor capa Balaam olphong neh mikdai aka then hlang kah olphong te a thui.
4 He hath sayde, which heard the wordes of God, and sawe the vision of the Almightie, and falling in a traunce had his eyes opened:
Pathen ol aka ya kah olphong tah Tlungthang mikhlam aka tla te a hmuh tih a mik a dai.
5 How goodly are thy tentes, O Iaakob, and thine habitations, O Israel!
Jakob nang kah dap neh Israel nang kah dungtlungim tah metlam a hoeikhang.
6 As the valleis, are they stretched forth, as gardes by the riuers side, as the aloe trees, which the Lord hath planted, as the cedars beside the waters.
Soklong bangla langdai, tuiva kah dum bangla, BOEIPA kah a phung thingul bangla, tui taengkah lamphai bangla,
7 The water droppeth out of his bucket, and his seede shalbe in many waters, and his king shall be hier then Agag, and his kingdome shall bee exalted.
A tuiduen lamloh tui sih tih a tiingan khaw tui yet dongah om. A manghai Agag lakah a pomsang vetih a ram a phueih ni.
8 God brought him out of Egypt: his strength shalbe as an vnicorne: he shall eate the nations his enemies, and bruise their bones, and shoote them through with his arrowes.
Pathen loh anih te Egypt lamloh amah taengah cung ki bangla a loh. A rhal namtom te a ngaeh coeng dongah a rhuh te a cilh vetih a thaltang neh a phop ni.
9 He coucheth and lieth downe as a yong lion, and as a lion: who shall stirre him vp? blessed is he that blesseth thee, and cursed is he that curseth thee.
Sathueng neh sathuengnu bangla koisu tih yalh phoeiah tah anih aka haeng te unim? Nang loh yoethen na paek te a yoethen tih nang loh thae na phoei khaw thaephoei a yook.
10 Then Balak was very angry with Balaam, and smote his handes together: so Balak sayde vnto Balaam, I sent for thee to curse mine enemies, and beholde, thou hast blessed them nowe three times.
Te vaengah Balak kah thintoek te Balaam taengah sai tih a kut te a paeng. Balak loh Balaam te, “Ka thunkha rhoek te tap ham ni nang kang khue dae he rhoek kah yoethen la voei thum yoethen na paek coeng he.
11 Therefore nowe flee vnto thy place: I thought surely to promote thee vnto honour, but loe, the Lord hath kept thee backe from honour.
Te dongah namah hmuen la nang te yong laeh. Nang te kan thangpom rhoe kan thangpom eh ka ti coeng dae BOEIPA loh nang te thangpomnah lamkah n'hloh coeng ne,” a ti nah.
12 Then Balaam answered Balak, Tolde I not also thy messengers, which thou sentest vnto me, saying,
Te dongah Balaam loh Balak te, “Kai taengla na puencawn nan tueih taengah khaw ka thui moenih a?
13 If Balak would giue me his house ful of siluer and gold, I can not passe the commandement of the Lord, to doe either good or bad of mine owne minde? what the Lord shall commaund, the same will I speake.
Kai he Balak loh cak neh sui a im kah a bae la m'pae cakhaw BOEIPA olka te poe hamla ka coeng moenih. Then cakhaw thae cakhaw ngai ham om. Ka lungbuei lamlong pataeng BOEIPA kah a thui te ni ka thui eh ka ti.
14 And nowe behold, I goe vnto my people: come, I will aduertise thee what this people shall doe to thy folke in the later dayes.
Kai tah ka pilnam taengla ka cet pawn ni he. Halo lamtah hmailong tue ah he pilnam loh na pilnam soah a saii ham te nang kang uen eh,” a ti nah.
15 And he vttered his parable, and sayd, Balaam the sonne of Beor hath sayde, and the man whose eyes were shut vp, hath sayd,
Te phoeiah a thuidoeknah a dangrhoek tih Beor capa Balaam kah olphong neh mik aka dai hlang kah olphong te a thui.
16 He hath said that heard the words of God, and hath the knowledge of the most High, and sawe the vision of the Almightie, and falling in a traunce had his eyes opened:
“Pathen kah olthui aka ya tih Khohni mingnah aka ming, tlungthang mikhlam aka hmu tih a bakop doela mik aka dai kah olphong loh,
17 I shall see him, but not nowe: I shall behold him, but not neere: there shall come a starre of Iaakob, and a scepter shall rise of Israel, and shall smite the coastes of Moab, and destroy all the sonnes of Sheth.
Amah te ka hmuh dae tahae ah moenih, amah te ka mae dae yoei pawh. Jakob lamkah aisi thoeng vetih Israel lamloh mancai thoo ni. Moab baengki a phop pah vetih Seth koca te boeih a phuet ni.
18 And Edom shalbe possessed, and Seir shall be a possession to their enemies: but Israel shall do valiantly.
Edom kah a pang om vetih a thunkha Seir kah a pang om cakhaw Israel loh thadueng neh a saii ni.
19 He also that shall haue dominion shall bee of Iaakob, and shall destroy the remnant of the citie.
Jakob lamloh a taemrhai vetih khopuei kah rhaengnaeng te a milh sak ni.
20 And when he looked on Amalek, he vttered his parable, and sayd, Amalek was the first of the nations: but his latter ende shall come to destruction.
Amalek te a hmuh vaengah a thuidoeknah a poh tih, ‘Amalek tah namtom kah a tongnah la om dae a hmailong tah pocinah la om’.
21 And he looked on the Kenites, and vttered his parable, and sayde, Strong is thy dwelling place, and put thy nest in the rocke.
Keni te a hmuh vaengah a thuidoeknah te a poh tih, ‘Na ngolhmuen khangmai tih thaelpang soah bu na khueh.’
22 Neuerthelesse, the Kenite shalbe spoyled vntill Asshur cary thee away captiue.
Tedae hatah Assyria loh nang n'sol duela Kain te hlup hamla om bitni,” a ti nah.
23 Againe he vttered his parable, and sayd, Alas, who shall liue when God doeth this?
A thuidoeknah a poh tih, “Anunae Pathen loh te a saii vaengah unim aka hing ve?
24 The ships also shall come from the coastes of Chittim, and subdue Asshur, and shall subdue Eber, and he also shall come to destruction.
Kittim lihmoi lamkah timbaw rhoek neh Assyria khaw phaep uh ni. Eber khaw a phaep uh ni. Tedae amah khaw pocinah ham ni,” a ti nah.
25 Then Balaam rose vp, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his way.
Te phoeiah Balaam te thoo tih aka cet te amah hmuen la mael. Te dongah Balak khaw amah longpuei la cet.
