Numbers 23
1 And Balaam said to Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams.
Le hoe t’i Balame amy Balake, mandrafeta kitrely fito etoañe vaho hajario ho ahy ty añombelahy fito naho añondrilahy fito.
2 And Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bullock and a ram.
Le nihenefa’ i Balake i sinaontsi’ i Balamey; le songa nisoroña’ i Balake naho i Balame amy kitrely rey ty añombelahy naho ty añondrilahy.
3 And Balaam said to Balak, Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go: peradventure the LORD will come to meet me: and whatever he shows me I will tell you. And he went to an high place.
Le hoe t’i Balame amy Balake, Mijohaña marine o isoroña’oo le hivìke iraho hera hifampikaoñe amako t’Iehovà, le hataliliko azo ze hatoro’e ahiko. Aa le nimb’ an-kaboa mb’eo re.
4 And God met Balaam: and he said to him, I have prepared seven altars, and I have offered on every altar a bullock and a ram.
Le nifañaoñe amy Balame t’i Andrianañahare, vaho hoe t’i Balame ama’e. Fa hinajariko ty kitrely fito naho songa nisoroñako añombelahy naho añondrilahy amy kitreli’e rey.
5 And the LORD put a word in Balaam’s mouth, and said, Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak.
Napo’ Iehovà am-palie’ i Balame ao ty tsara, ami’ty hoe, Mibaliha mb’ amy Balake mb’eo le inao ty ho saontsie’o.
6 And he returned to him, and, see, he stood by his burnt sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab.
Le nibalike mb’ama’e mb’eo re nanjo aze nijohañe marine o nisoroña’eo, ie naho ze hene roandria’ i Moabe.
7 And he took up his parable, and said, Balak the king of Moab has brought me from Aram, out of the mountains of the east, saying, Come, curse me Jacob, and come, defy Israel.
Le nonjone’e ami’ ty hoe i fandrazaña’ey: Fa ninday ahy boak’ Arame t’i Balake mpanjaka’ i Moabe; hirik’ amo vohitse atiñanañ’eñeo. Mahavia, Ozoño ho ahiko t’Iakòbe, Mb’etoa onjiro t’Israele!
8 How shall I curse, whom God has not cursed? or how shall I defy, whom the LORD has not defied?
Aa vaho akore ty hamàrako ty tsy nafàn’ Añahare? Vaho akore ty hañonjirako i tsy nonjira’ Iehovày?
9 For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: see, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.
Ie talakeko boak’ ambone’ vato ey, sinambako hirik’ ankaboañey; Hehe t’indaty mizoizoy, tsy ho volilieñe amo kilakila ‘ndatio!
10 Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!
Ia ty mahaiake ty debo’ Iakòbe ndra hamolily ty fah’ efa’ Israele? Apoho iraho hikenkañe am-pihomaha’ o vantañeo, Ehe ampanahafo amy firompoa’ey ty ahiko.
11 And Balak said to Balaam, What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and, behold, you have blessed them altogether.
Le hoe t’i Balak’ amy Balame, Ino ty nanoe’o amako? Nendeseko mb’ etoan-drehe hañozoñe o rafelahikoo te mone nitatae’o avao.
12 And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD has put in my mouth?
Le tinoi’e ami’ty hoe, Tsy hambenako hao ty hivolañe ze apo’ Iehovà am-bavako ao?
13 And Balak said to him, Come, I pray you, with me to another place, from where you may see them: you shall see but the utmost part of them, and shall not see them all: and curse me them from there.
Le hoe t’i Balake tama’e, Antao mb’ an-toetse raike ey hahatalakesa’o aze; ty ila’e avao ro ho oni’o fa tsy ie iaby, le ozoño boak’ ao ho ahiko.
14 And he brought him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.
Aa le nendese’e mb’an-tete’ i Tsofime mb’eo re ankaboa’ i Pisgà ey naho nañoreñe kitrely fito, vaho nisoroñe añombelahy naho añondrilahy amy kitreli’e rey.
15 And he said to Balak, Stand here by your burnt offering, while I meet the LORD yonder.
Le hoe re amy Balake, Mijohaña etoa marivo o isoroña’oo, le homb’ aroan-draho, hifañaoñe.
16 And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Go again to Balak, and say thus.
Nifampikaoñe amy Balame t’Iehovà le nampipoke ty tsara am-palie’e naho nanao ty hoe: Mibaliha mb’amy Balake mb’eo vaho isaontsio izay.
17 And when he came to him, behold, he stood by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said to him, What has the LORD spoken?
Aa le nimb’ ama’e mb’eo vaho nizoe’e nijohañe amy nisoroña’ey rekets’ o roandria’ i Moabeo. Le hoe t’i Balak’ ama’e, Inoñe ty nitsarae’ Iehovà?
18 And he took up his parable, and said, Rise up, Balak, and hear; listen to me, you son of Zippor:
Aa le nonjone’e ami’ty hoe i razan-tsaontsi’ey: Miongaha ry Balake, mijanjiña! Anokilaño ravembia ry ana’ i Tsipore.
19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: has he said, and shall he not do it? or has he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
Tsy ondaty t’i Andrianañahare t’ie handañitse, naho tsy ana’ondaty t’ie haneñeñe. Aa vaho tsy hanoe’e i nitsarae’ey? tsy ho henefe’e hao i nitaroñe’ey?
20 Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he has blessed; and I cannot reverse it.
Ingo nanoloran-dily hitata iraho; aa kanao ie ro nitata tsy meteko afotetse.
21 He has not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither has he seen perverseness in Israel: the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.
Tsy nahaoniña’e hakeo t’Iakòbe tsy nahaisaha’e tahiñe t’Israele. Ama’e t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’e, naho ama’e ao ty koim-panjaka.
22 God brought them out of Egypt; he has as it were the strength of an unicorn.
I Andrianañahare nampienga aze amy Mitsraimey, ro tsifan-drimo abo ama’e.
23 Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What has God worked!
Toe tsy atreatrem-boreke amy Iakòbe vaho tsy trean-tsikily amy’Israele, Ie henaneo ro tsaraeñe ty am’ Iakòbe naho am’Israele, ty hoe: Heheke ty nanoen’Añahare.
24 Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.
Hitroatse hoe liona vave’e ondatio, hiongake hoe liona lahi’e: Tsy handre am-para’ t’ie mihinan-tsindroke vaho minoñe ty lio’ i vinonoy.
25 And Balak said to Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.
Le hoe t’i Balak’ amy Balame, Ko ozoñe‘o ka, naho ko itata’o.
26 But Balaam answered and said to Balak, Told not I you, saying, All that the LORD speaks, that I must do?
Fe hoe ty navale’ i Balame i Balake, Tsy vinolako hao te ze tsarae’ Iehovà, le tsy mete tsy izay ty hanoeko?
27 And Balak said to Balaam, Come, I pray you, I will bring you to another place; peradventure it will please God that you may curse me them from there.
Le hoe t’i Balak’ amy Balame, Antao, fa hendeseko mb’an-toetse raike ka irehe hera ho non’ Añahare ty hañozoñe iareo ho ahiko boake ey.
28 And Balak brought Balaam to the top of Peor, that looks toward Jeshimon.
Le nendese’ i Balake mb’ an-dengo’ i Peore, ahatalakesañe mb’ am-patrambey eñe, t’i Balame.
29 And Balaam said to Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams.
Le hoe t’i Balame amy Balake, Añoreño kitrely fito ty etoy vaho añajario añombelahy fito naho añondrilahy fito.
30 And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.
Le nanoe’ i Balake i sinaontsi’ i Balamey vaho songa nisoroña’e an-kitrely ty añombelahy naho ty añondrilahy.
