< Numbers 22 >
1 And the children of Israel journeyed, and pitched in the plains of Moab beyond the Jordan at Jericho.
Hichun Israel mite Moab phaicham langa akitol un Jordan sahlam Jericho mun’a chun akichol dotauvin ahi.
2 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.
Zippor chapa Moab mite lengpa Balak in Isreal miten Amor mite chunga anatoh jouse’u kidang asah behseh tan ahi.
3 And Moab was sore afraid of the people, because they were many: and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel.
Moab miten Isreal mite ahung kitol taove veuvin amaho chu tijatnan adimset un ahi.
4 And Moab said unto the elders of Midian, Now shall 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.
Moab lengpa chun Midian mite lamkai ho kom ah ahil chah taovin, mipi ima bol lal toh lal anei lou diu ahi bong hang in hampa hing avel lhum tobanga loulai a avet lhih jeng ding ahi tin lengpa henga chun aseiyin ahi.
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:
Thu athot tan Balaam pa chapa heng nga hiche Balak kitipa khu amaho gam Pithor leh Euphrates vadung kom a pansah cheng chu Balak thucheng hiche hohi athot in, veuvin hiche mipi ho hi Eygpt apat na hung kipat doh ahiuvin, amaho hin leiset pumpi alo dim tauvin chule amaho leiset mite kinai tah in aum mun ahi.
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.
Lungset tah in hung phei in Isreal mite hi gaosap in ajeh chu keima toh kito din ahat val un ahi. Hiche teng chule kavang aphat le keiman amaho chu hiche leiset na pat ahi kadal doh thei ahin keima kahet na aum in nangma hitabang mite chung nga vang naboh le amaho chung nga chu vangboh-phatthei na chang ding u chule nangma in na gaosap te chung nga chu sapset nachan diu ahi.
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 spake unto him the words of Balak.
Balak’s ding a thutan seiphong nga nang ho chu Midian le Moab mite aki go doh tauvin, Sumle pai toh Balaam chu Isreal mite chung nga agao sap na ding in, amaho chu ache tauvin Balak lam ah thuthot ding in akalsong tauve.
8 And he said unto them, Lodge here this night, and I will bring you word again, as the LORD shall speak unto me: and the princes of Moab abode with Balaam.
Balaam in adonbut in tujan hikom ah geh den tan ati, keiman jingkah tengleh kasei peh ding nahi tai Pathen in itobang a ei houlim pi ding ham? Hiti ahi jeh chun Moab a konna migun hochu Balaam toh ageh khom tauvin ahi.
9 And God came unto Balaam, and said, What men are these with thee?
Hiche nijan chun Pathen Vantil in Balaam heng ngah koiba hitam nangma toh kimuto a hung jihohi tin aseiye.
10 And Balaam said unto God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto me, [saying],
Balaam in Pathen Vantil hengah asei tan Zippor kiti pa chapa Balak Moab lengpan hiche thu hohi eihin thot e, ati.
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.
Vetan Eygpt a patna hung kipat doh mi hon hijat aum uvin chuleh Amahon vannoi pumpi alo dim tauve. Hiche mipi hohi hung gaosap in, hung tem in chuti leh keiman amaho chu ka nodoh jou thei khat leh tia eihung tem ahiuve.
12 And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people: for they are blessed.
Ahinlah Pathen Vantil in Balaam chu ahin houlimpi tan, hiche mite hi Pathen phatthei chang ahi tauvin amaho na gaosap lou ding chuleh amaho lam nache loubeh ding ahi, ati.
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.
Balaam aki thoudoh in hiche nikho a jing chun Balak mi hung lamkai ho komma hitin asei tan, nangho in lam a che tauvin Pathen Vantil in nangma hotoh chekhom din ei phal poi ati tai.
14 And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and said, Balaam refuseth to come with us.
Hichun Moab lamkai milun ho chu Balak lengpa komma din aki nung le tauvin chule amahon Balaam thuthot ho chu ahung thadiu thaset naho chu asei peh taovin ahi.
15 And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable than they.
Balak in khatvei apatep kit in hiche phat na hi Balak in migun tamtah asol lin amijat jong tamjo chule aphat masah peh sang a thupijo ahi.
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:
Amaho chu Balaam heng lamah acheuvin hiche thu hohi aga lhut tauve, hiche thucheng hohi Balak kiti Zippor chapan asei tan, lungset tah in emacha kisuh boisah hih beh in keima komma nahunga neikithopi nadin, ati.
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.
Keiman nangma hoitah a tohman ka bol peh ding nahi chule ipi hita jongle nangmain bol lin nati chu ka bol peh ding hiche mite hohi a gaosap din ki gong in hung jeng in ati.
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 less or more.
Ahinlah Balaam in Balak chu hitin a donbut in Balaam in alenggam toh ei peh tha henlang sana dangka toh kikoi dimset hita jongle ka Pathen lungdei lou ahikhah le keiman imacha ka bol theina ding’a, thilbol theina neilou ka hi ding ahiye, ati.
19 Now therefore, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that I may know what the LORD will speak unto me more.
Ahinlah jan khat tabang umbe un, keiman jong Pakai, Pathen in kahenga epi aseibe ding ham kahetdoh thei nadin.
20 And God came unto Balaam at night, and said unto him, If the men be come to call thee, rise up, go with them; but only the word which I speak unto thee, that shalt thou do.
Hiche ni jan chun Pathen Vantil chu Balaam heng a ahung kilah tan hiche miluntah hohi na heng’a ding a hung kholjin ahi tah jeh un, nangma kipatdoh inlang amaho toh chekhom un, ahinlah nangman keima thupeh na jui ding ahi.
21 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes of Moab.
Hichun ajing in Balaam aki thoudoh in asangan a atoudoh in Moab mite lamkai hochu toh akipat doh tauvin ahi.
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.
Hitia Balaam ache jeh chun, Pathen chu alunghang tan hijeh chun Pakai Vantil asol in lamlen laitah a Balaam tingtan ding chun ana pang tai. Balaam chu asoh mini toh kilhon ahi.
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.
Balaam sangan chun Pakai Vantil lamlen na aum a, achemjam akhut a achoi chu a mudoh tan sangan chu lamlen a kon in phailei lam a lhai lha tan amavang Balaam in sangan chu ajep in lamlen ah ahin puilut kit tan ahi.
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.
Hichun Pakai vantil chu lam ajum lang aneo lang lengpi thei lei teni kikah ah ana ding tan ahi.
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.
Sangan chun Pathen Vantil chu amu phat in aki tol doh kigo in Balaam keng toh bang chu anom beh khatai. Hichun Balaam in sangan chu ajep kit tan ahi.
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.
Pakai Vantil chu aki phei khin doh kit in akeng jep ah chun, ajet le avei ja sangan lhaidoh na ding umlou na ahchun ana ting kit’e.
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.
Hi chun sakol chun Pakai Vantil chu amu phat in, Balaam anoija abohkhup tan ahileh, Balaam chu alung hang lheh in sangan chu ajep tai.
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?
Hichun Pakaiyin sangan chu thusei theina apen; Balaam chu ahin donbut in, “Ipi kabol khel’a thumveijen nei jep hitam?” tin adong tai.
29 And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in mine hand, for now I had killed thee.
Nang in kei mingol tah neiso tah hila” tin Balaam akisen in, “Ka khut na hin chemjam um choi hileng ka dot lih ding na hitai”, ati.
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.
Na damsung’a na tou jingna na sangan chu kahi hilou ham? tin Sangan chun ahin donbut in, Keima nidang a chu hitabang a hi ka um khah em? ati. Balaam in adonbut in “Ahi nai! Na um khapoi” ati.
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.
Hichun Pakai-Pathen in Balaam mitchu ahin hadoh sah tan hichun Balaam in Pakai Vantil lamka laiya adin’a chemjam akhutna aki choi chu amu phat in, amai ja akun suh in Pakai Pathen abohkhup tai.
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 perverse before me:
Pakai Vantil chun thudoh anei jin, ipi bolla na sangan chu navoh hitam ati Ven- keima nalampi su bing nga hung nga kahi ijeh inam itileh nangma hi mi louchal tah nahi, ati.
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.
Sangan chun thumveijen ei mu ahin ei otdoh ji, tun keima in Sangan hi ka hoidoh sah a nangma hi katha doh ding nahi tai.
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 again.
Hichun Balaam min Pakai vantil komma chun ngaidam athum tan, keima kachon kheltan keiman ka lampia neina tin chu ka geldoh lou ahi. Ka in lam ah kinungle kit tang kate, Pakai jin neiphal peh lou leh tin aseiye.
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.
Ahilah, Pakai- Pathen chun Balaam chu a donbut in hiche miho toh hin kilhon in chen, Ahinlah kei seiho bou na bol ding ahi. Hichun Balaam chu Balak milun ho chu toh achekhom tauvin ahi.
36 And when Balak heard that Balaam was come, he went out to meet him unto the City of Moab, which is on the border of Arnon, which is in the utmost part of the border.
Balak Lengpa in Balaam chu ahung ahet phat in lamlen’a kimu pi din ache tai, Balak chu Moab mite gam ning gei Arnon vadung gei aga lam ton ahi.
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 in Balaam thudoh aneitan keima heng nga gang tah a nahung na ding a thu ka hin nei hilou ham Ibol’a na hung louham ati. Keiman kipa man ka peh dia ka thutep hohi na tahsan louham tin asei in ahi.
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.
Balaam min a donbut in ven, keima vang ka hung tai ahinlah keiman bolthei imacha ka nei poi, keiman ka dei dei a jong ka seithei ahi poi, Pakai, Pathen in ka kam a eipeh bou ka kasei doh ding ahi bouve, ati.
39 And Balaam went with Balak, and they came unto Kiriath-huzoth.
Hichun Balaam min Balak chu Kiriath Huzoth tigei aki lhon pin ahi.
40 And Balak sacrificed oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to the princes that were with him.
Hilai mun achun Balak lengpan abolngai jing bang in, kengoi le Bongchal ah pumgo thilto maicham aneiyin ahi. Balak in hiche Saphe tham khat chu Balaam toh alhonpi ho chu apen ahi.
41 And it came to pass in the morning, that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up into the high places of Baal, and he saw from thence the utmost part of the people.
A jing jingkah chun Balak in Balaam chu Bamoth Baal molsang chung a apuidoh in, ahi, ajeh chu hilai mun apat na hi Israel mite vahle ho chu a umna apat kimu ahi.
