Numbers 22
1 And the children of Israel journeyed, and pitched in the plains of Moab beyond the Jordan at Jericho.
Sai Isra’ilawa suka kama hanya, suka tafi filayen Mowab, a wajen Urdun, a ƙetare Yeriko, suka yi sansani a can.
2 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.
To, fa, Balak ɗan Ziffor ya ga duk abin da Isra’ila suka yi da Amoriyawa.
3 And Moab was sore afraid of the people, because they were many; and Moab was overcome with dread because of the children of Israel.
Sai Mowab ya firgita ƙwarai saboda yawan mutanen. Tsoron Isra’ilawa ya kama su.
4 And Moab said unto the elders of Midian: 'Now will this multitude lick up all that is round about us, as the ox licketh up the grass of the field.' — And Balak the son of Zippor was king of Moab at that time. —
Sai Mowabawa suka ce wa dattawan Midiyawa, “Wannan taron zai lashe duk abin da ya kewaye mu kamar yadda saniya takan lashe ciyawa a fili.” Saboda haka Balak ɗan Ziffor, wanda yake sarkin Mowab a lokacin,
5 And he sent messengers unto Balaam the son of Beor, to Pethor, which is by the River, to the land of the children of his people, to call him, saying: 'Behold, there is a people come out from Egypt; behold, they cover the face of the earth, and they abide over against me.
ya aika manzanni su zo da Bala’am ɗan Beyor, wanda yake a Fetor, kusa da Kogi, a ƙasar haihuwarsa. Balak ya ce, “Ga mutane sun fito daga Masar; sun mamaye ƙasar, suka kuma yi sansani kusa da ni.
6 Come now therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people; for they are too mighty for me; peradventure I shall prevail, that we may smite them, and that I may drive them out of the land; for I know that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed.'
Ka zo yanzu ka la’anta waɗannan mutane, domin sun fi ƙarfina. Wataƙila zan iya cin nasara a kansu, in kuma kore su daga ƙasar. Gama na sani duk waɗanda ka sa musu albarka, sun zama masu albarka ke nan, waɗanda kuma ka la’anta, sun la’antu ke nan.”
7 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with the rewards of divination in their hand; and they came unto Balaam, and spoke unto him the words of Balak.
Sai dattawan Mowab da na Midiyawa suka tashi, suka ɗauki kuɗi don duba. Da suka zo wurin Bala’am sai suka faɗa masa abin da Balak ya ce.
8 And he said unto them: 'Lodge here this night, and I will bring you back word, as the LORD may speak unto me'; and the princes of Moab abode with Balaam.
Bala’am ya ce musu, “Ku kwana a nan, ni kuwa zan faɗa muku abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa mini.” Saboda haka dattawan sarkin Mowab suka zauna da shi.
9 And God came unto Balaam, and said: 'What men are these with thee?'
Sai Allah ya zo wurin Bala’am ya ce, “Su wane ne waɗannan tare da kai?”
10 And Balaam said unto God: 'Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto me saying:
Bala’am ya ce wa Allah, “Balak ɗan Ziffor, sarkin Mowab ne, ya aiko mini wannan saƙo cewa,
11 Behold the people that is come out of Egypt, it covereth the face of the earth; now, come curse me them; peradventure I shall be able to fight against them, and shall drive them out.'
‘Ga mutane sun fito daga Masar sun mamaye ƙasar. Ka zo yanzu ka la’anta mini su. Wataƙila ta haka zan yi nasara a kansu, in kuma kore su.’”
12 And God said unto Balaam: 'Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people; for they are blessed.'
Amma Allah ya ce wa Bala’am, “Kada ka tafi tare da su. Kada ka la’anta mutanen nan, gama su masu albarka ne.”
13 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and said unto the princes of Balak: 'Get you into your land; for the LORD refuseth to give me leave to go with you.'
Kashegari Bala’am ya tashi ya ce wa dattawan Balak, “Ku koma ƙasarku, domin Ubangiji ya hana ni in tafi tare da ku.”
14 And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and said: 'Balaam refuseth to come with us.'
Saboda haka dattawan Mowab suka koma wurin Balak suka ce, “Bala’am ya ƙi yă zo tare da mu.”
15 And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable than they.
Sai Balak ya aika waɗansu dattawa masu yawa, masu daraja kuma fiye da na dā.
16 And they came to Balaam, and said to him: 'Thus saith Balak the son of Zippor: Let nothing, I pray thee, hinder thee from coming unto me;
Suka zo wurin Bala’am suka ce, “Ga abin da Balak ɗan Ziffor ya ce, Kada ka bar wani abu yă hana ka zuwa wurina,
17 for I will promote thee unto very great honour, and whatsoever thou sayest unto me I will do; come therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people.'
gama zan ba ka lada mai yawa in kuma yi duk abin da ka ce. Ka zo ka la’anta mini waɗannan mutane.”
18 And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak: 'If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my God, to do any thing, small or great.
Amma Bala’am ya amsa musu ya ce, “Ko da a ce Balak zai ba ni gidansa cike da azurfa da zinariya, ba zan yi wani abu ko kaɗan saɓanin umarnin Ubangiji Allahna ba.
19 Now therefore, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that I may know what the LORD will speak unto me more.'
To, fa, sai ku kwana a nan kamar yadda waɗancan suka yi, ni kuma in roƙi Ubangiji, in ji, wace magana zai ce mini.”
20 And God came unto Balaam at night, and said unto him: 'If the men are come to call thee, rise up, go with them; but only the word which I speak unto thee, that shalt thou do.'
A wannan dare, Allah ya zo wurin Bala’am ya ce, “Da yake waɗannan mutane sun zo su tafi da kai, to, ka tafi tare da su, sai dai ka yi abin da na ce ka yi ne kaɗai.”
21 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes of Moab.
Bala’am ya tashi da safe, ya ɗaura wa jakarsa sirdi, ya tafi tare da dattawan Mowab.
22 And God's anger was kindled because he went; and the angel of the LORD placed himself in the way for an adversary against him. — Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him. —
Amma Allah ya husata sa’ad da ya tafi, mala’ikan Ubangiji kuwa ya tsaya a hanya don yă hana shi. Bala’am kuwa yana kan jakarsa tare da bayinsa biyu.
23 And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, with 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.
Da jakar ta hangi mala’ikan Ubangiji tsaye a hanya da takobi a hannunsa, sai ta kauce daga hanya, ta shiga jeji. Bala’am kuwa ya buge ta don tă koma hanya.
24 Then the angel of the LORD stood in a hollow way between the vineyards, a fence being on this side, and a fence on that side.
Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya tsaya a wata matsattsiyar hanya tsakanin gonaki inabi biyu, da bango a kowane gefe.
25 And the ass saw the angel of the LORD, and she thrust herself unto the wall, and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall; and he smote her again.
Sa’ad da jakar ta ga mala’ikan Ubangiji, sai ta matse a jikin bango, ta goge ƙafar Bala’am da bangon. Saboda haka sai Bala’am ya sāke bugunta.
26 And the angel of the LORD went further, and stood in a narrow place, where was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left.
Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya sha gabansa, ya tsaya a ƙunƙuntaccen wuri inda ba wurin juyawa dama ko hagu.
27 And the ass saw the angel of the LORD, and she lay down under Balaam; and Balaam's anger was kindled, and he smote the ass with his staff.
Da jakar ta ga mala’ikan Ubangiji, sai ta kwanta a ƙasa, Bala’am kuwa ya husata, sai ya buge ta da sandansa.
28 And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam: 'What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times?'
Ubangiji ya buɗe bakin jakar, sai jakar ta ce wa Bala’am, “Me na yi maka da ka buge ni har sau uku?”
29 And Balaam said unto the ass: 'Because thou hast mocked me; I would there were a sword in my hand, for now I had killed thee.'
Bala’am ya ce wa jakar “Domin kin wulaƙanta ni! Da a ce ina da takobi a hannuna da zan kashe ki nan take.”
30 And the ass said unto Balaam: 'Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden all thy life long unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee?' And he said: 'Nay.'
Jakar ta ce wa Bala’am, “Ni ba jakarka ba ce wadda kake hawa kullum, har yă zuwa yau? Na taɓa yin maka haka?” Bala’am ya ce, “A’a.”
31 Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, with his sword drawn in his hand; and he bowed his head, and fell on his face.
Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya buɗe idanun Bala’am, ya kuwa ga mala’ikan Ubangiji tsaye a hanya da takobi a zāre. Sai ya sunkuyar da kansa, ya fāɗi rubda ciki.
32 And the angel of the LORD said unto him: 'Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass these three times? behold, I am come forth for an adversary, because thy way is contrary unto me;
Sa’an nan mala’ikan Ubangiji ya tambaye shi, “Don me ka buge jakarka har sau uku? Na fito ne don in hana ka, gama hanyarka ba daidai ba ce a gabana.
33 and the ass saw me, and turned aside before me these three times; unless she had turned aside from me, surely now I had even slain thee, and saved her alive.'
Jakar ta gan ni, ta kauce mini har sau uku. Da a ce ba tă kauce ba, lalle da na kashe ka, in kuwa bar ta da rai.”
34 And Balaam said unto the angel of the LORD: 'I have sinned; for I knew not that thou stoodest in the way against me; now therefore, if it displease thee, I will get me back.'
Bala’am ya ce wa mala’ikan Ubangiji, “Na yi zunubi. Ban san ka tsaya a hanya don ka hana ni ba. Yanzu in ba ka ji daɗin tafiyata, sai in koma.”
35 And the angel of the LORD said unto Balaam: 'Go with the men; but only the word that I shall speak unto thee, that thou shalt speak.' So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.
Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya ce wa Bala’am, “Ka tafi tare da mutanen, amma abin da na faɗa maka ne kaɗai za ka faɗa.” Saboda haka Bala’am ya tafi tare da dattawan Balak.
36 And when Balak heard that Balaam was come, he went out to meet him unto Ir-moab, which is on the border of Arnon, which is in the utmost part of the border.
Da Balak ya ji cewa Bala’am yana zuwa, sai ya fito, ya tarye shi a garin Mowabawa da suke a iyakar Arnon, a ƙarshen yankinsa.
37 And Balak said unto Balaam: 'Did I not earnestly send unto thee to call thee? wherefore camest thou not unto me? am I not able indeed to promote thee to honour?'
Balak ya ce wa Bala’am, “Ban aika maka saƙo cikin gagawa ba? Me ya sa ba ka zo ba? Ko ban isa in sāka maka ba ne?”
38 And Balaam said unto Balak: 'Lo, I am come unto thee; have I now any power at all to speak any thing? the word that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak.'
Bala’am ya amsa ya ce, “To, ai, ga shi, na zo yanzu. Ina da wani ikon yin wata magana ne? Dole in faɗa abin da Allah ya ce in faɗa ne kawai.”
39 And Balaam went with Balak, and they came unto Kiriath-huzoth.
Sa’an nan Bala’am ya tafi tare da Balak zuwa Kiriyat-Huzot,
40 And Balak sacrificed oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to the princes that were with him.
a can ya yi hadaya da shanu da tumaki, ya kuwa aika wa Bala’am da dattawan da suke tare da shi.
41 And it came to pass in the morning that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up into Bamoth-baal, and he saw from thence the utmost part of the people.
Kashegari, Balak ya ɗauki Bala’am ya kai shi kan Bamot Ba’al, daga can ya iya ganin sassan sansanin Isra’ilawa.
