Numbers 22
1 And they set out [the] people of Israel and they encamped in [the] plains of Moab from [the] other side of [the] Jordan of Jericho.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo kite kote yo te ye a, y' al moute kan yo nan plenn Moab, ki lòt bò larivyè Jouden, anfas lavil Jeriko.
2 And he saw Balak [the] son of Zippor all that it had done Israel to the Amorite[s].
Lè wa Balak, pitit Zipò, wè tou sa moun pèp Izrayèl yo te fè moun Amori yo,
3 And it was afraid Moab because of the people exceedingly for [was] numerous it and it felt dread Moab because of [the] people of Israel.
li menm ak tout moun pèp Moab yo te vin pè pèp Izrayèl la kou chat, paske moun pèp Izrayèl yo te anpil anpil.
4 And it said Moab to [the] elders of Midian now they will lick up the company all around us as licks up the ox [the] greenery of the field and Balak [the] son of Zippor [was] king of Moab at the time that.
Moun Moab yo pale ak chèf fanmi moun Madyan yo, yo di yo: -Bann moun sa yo pral manje tou sa ki alantou nou, tankou bèf k'ap manje zèb nan savann. Lè sa a, se Balak, pitit Zipò, ki te wa peyi Moab.
5 And he sent messengers to Balaam [the] son of Beor Pethor towards which [was] at the river [the] land of [the] sons of people his to summon him saying here! a people it has come out from Egypt here! it has covered [the] eye of the land and it [is] dwelling from in front of me.
Li voye kèk mesaje bò kote Balaram, pitit Beyò a, ki te rete lavil Petò, bò gwo larivyè Lefrat la nan peyi moun Amaf yo. Men komisyon li te voye ba li: -Men, gen yon pèp la a ki soti nan peyi Lejip. Y'ap mache pran tout peyi pou yo. Koulye a, men yo kanpe toupre lòt bò fwontyè peyi mwen an.
6 And therefore come! please curse! for me the people this for [is too] mighty it for me perhaps I will be able to strike it and I will drive out it from the land for I know [the one] whom you bless [is] blessed and [the one] whom you curse he is cursed.
Tanpri, vini non. Vin madichonnen yo pou mwen, paske yo pi fò pase m'. Lè sa a, ou pa janm konnen, m'a ka bat yo, m'a mete yo deyò nan peyi a. Paske mwen konnen lè ou beni yon moun, li beni nèt, Konsa tou, lè ou bay yon moun madichon, li madichonnen nèt.
7 And they went [the] elders of Moab and [the] elders of Midian and divinations [were] in hand their and they came to Balaam and they spoke to him [the] words of Balak.
Se konsa, chèf fanmi moun Moab yo ak chèf fanmi moun Madyan yo pati. Yo te pote ak yo sa ki te nesesè pou peye konsiltasyon an. Yo rive kay Balaram, epi yo ba li komisyon Balak la.
8 And he said to them lodge here this night and I will bring back you word just as he will speak Yahweh to me and they remained [the] leaders of Moab with Balaam.
Balaram di yo: -Bon. Nou mèt pase nwit la isit la. Denmen m'a ban nou repons mwen dapre sa Seyè a va fè m' konnen. Se konsa, chèf fanmi moun Moab yo rete lakay Balaram.
9 And he came God to Balaam and he said who? [are] the men these with you.
Bondye vin bò kote Balaram, li di l' konsa: -Ki moun sa yo ki lakay ou a?
10 And he said Balaam to God Balak [the] son of Zippor [the] king of Moab he sent to me.
Balaram reponn: -Se Balak, pitit Zipò a, wa peyi Moab, ki voye yo vin di m':
11 Here! the people which has come out from Egypt and it has covered [the] eye of the land now come! curse! for me it perhaps I will be able to engage in battle against it and I will drive out it.
Men gen yon pèp ki soti nan peyi Lejip k'ap mache pran tout peyi pou yo. Tanpri, vini ba yo madichon pou li. Konsa, l'a ka rive bat yo, l'a ka mete yo deyò nan peyi a.
12 And he said God to Balaam not you will go with them not you will curse the people for [is] blessed it.
Men Bondye di Balaram konsa: -Piga ou ale ak mesye sa yo, tande. Piga ou bay pèp Izrayèl la madichon, paske se mwen ki beni yo.
13 And he arose Balaam in the morning and he said to [the] leaders of Balak go to land your for he has refused Yahweh to permit me to go with you.
Nan denmen maten, byen bonè, Balaram leve, l' al jwenn moun Balak te voye yo, li di yo: -Tounen lakay nou, paske Seyè a pa vle kite m' ale ak nou.
14 And they arose [the] leaders of Moab and they went to Balak and they said he has refused Balaam to come with us.
Se konsa chèf moun Moab yo leve, yo tounen bò kote Balak, yo di l' konsa: -Balaram refize vini avèk nou!
15 And he repeated again Balak to send leaders many and honored more than these.
Lè sa a, Balak voye yon bann lòt chèf kote Balaram ankò. Men, fwa sa a chèf sa yo te pi plis, epi yo te pi grannèg pase premye yo.
16 And they came to Balaam and they said to him thus he says Balak [the] son of Zippor do not please let yourself be restrained from coming to me.
Mesye yo leve vre, y' ale bò kote Balaram, epi yo di l' konsa: -Men sa Balak, pitit Zipò a, voye di ou: Tanpri, pa kite anyen anpeche ou vin bò kote m'.
17 For surely I will honor you exceedingly and all that you will say to me I will do and come! please curse! for me the people this.
Gade: m'ap kite anpil bèl bagay pou ou. M'ap fè tou sa ou di m' fè. Tanpri, vini non! Vin bay pèp sa a madichon pou mwen.
18 And he answered Balaam and he said to [the] servants of Balak if he will give to me Balak [the] fullness of house his silver and gold not I will be able to transgress [the] mouth of Yahweh God my by doing a small [thing] or a large [thing].
Men, Balaram reponn moun Balak yo, li di yo: -Balak te mèt ban mwen kay li plen ajan ak lò, mwen p'ap fè anyen, ni lou ni lejè, ki pou fè m' dezobeyi lòd Seyè a, Bondye mwen an.
19 And now remain please in this [place] also you this night so let me know what? will he increase Yahweh to speak with me.
Yon sèl bagay, nou mèt dòmi isit la aswè a, pou m' ka konnen si Seyè a gen lòt bagay li vle di m' ankò.
20 And he came God - to Balaam night and he said to him if to summon you they have come the men arise go with them and only the word which I will speak to you it you will do.
Jou lannwit sa a, Bondye vin jwenn Balaram, epi li di l' konsa: -Si se chache mesye sa yo vin chache ou, ou mèt leve ale ak yo. Men, se sa mwen di ou fè ase pou ou fè.
21 And he arose Balaam in the morning and he saddled donkey his and he went with [the] leaders of Moab.
Nan denmen maten, byen bonè, Balaram leve, li sele manman bourik l' a, epi li pati avèk chèf moun Moab yo.
22 And it burned [the] anger of God for [was] going he and he stood [the] angel of Yahweh in the road to an adversary to him and he [was] riding on donkey his and two of servants his [were] with him.
Pati Balaram pati, Bondye fache sou li. Se konsa, antan Balaram taprale sou manman bourik l' a, avèk de domestik ki t'ap mache avè l' yo, zanj Seyè a vin kanpe nan mitan wout la pou bare chemen l'.
23 And it saw the donkey [the] angel of Yahweh standing in the road and sword his [was] drawn in hand his and it turned aside the donkey from the road and it went in the field and he struck Balaam the donkey to turn it the road.
Lè manman bourik la wè zanj Seyè a ki te kanpe nan mitan wout la avèk nepe li nan men l', bourik la chankre, li lage kò l' nan jaden. Balaram bat bourik la jouk li fè l' tounen sou wout la.
24 And he stood [the] angel of Yahweh in [the] narrow way of the vineyards a wall from this and a wall from this.
Men zanj Seyè a vin kanpe yon kote wout la te jennen, kote wout la pase nan mitan de jaden rezen avèk yon miray kloti sou chak bò.
25 And it saw the donkey [the] angel of Yahweh and it squeezed itself to the wall and it squeezed [the] foot of Balaam to the wall and he repeated to strike it.
Lè manman bourik la wè zanj Seyè a, l' al fwote kò l' sou miray la. Se konsa li kwense pye Balaram sou miray la. Balaram tanmen bat l' ankò.
26 And he increased [the] angel of Yahweh to pass on and he stood in a place narrow where there not [was] a way to turn aside right [hand] and left [hand].
Zanj Seyè a fè yon ti mache ankò, epi l' al kanpe yon kote wout la te pi jennen toujou, kifè pa t' gen yon ti espas menm pou pase ni adwat, ni agoch.
27 And it saw the donkey [the] angel of Yahweh and it lay down under Balaam and it burned [the] anger of Balaam and he struck the donkey with the stick.
Lè bourik la wè zanj Seyè a, fwa sa a, li kouche ak tout Balaram sou li. Balaram fache, li tonbe bat bourik la ak gwo baton ki te nan men l' lan.
28 And he opened Yahweh [the] mouth of the donkey and it said to Balaam what? have I done to you that you have struck me this three feet.
Lè sa a, Seyè a bay bourik la lapawòl. Bourik la di Balaram konsa: -Kisa m' fè ou? Poukisa an twa fwa ou bat mwen konsa:
29 And he said Balaam to the donkey that you have dealt wantonly with me if there [were] a sword in hand my that now I killed you.
Balaram di bourik la konsa: -Se paske w'ap pase m' nan jwèt! Pa pito se te yon manchèt osinon yon nepe ki te nan men m', ou ta gen tan konnen. Ou mouri lontan!
30 And it said the donkey to Balaam ¿ not [am] I donkey your which you have ridden on me from duration your until the day this ¿ really have I had [the] habit to do to you thus and he said no.
Bourik la reponn, li di l': -Eske se pa bourik ou mwen ye! Se pa sou mwen ou toujou moute depi tout tan jouk jòdi a? Ou janm wè mwen konn aji konsa avè ou? Balaram reponn: -Non!
31 And he uncovered Yahweh [the] eyes of Balaam and he saw [the] angel of Yahweh standing in the road and sword his [was] drawn in hand his and he bowed low and he bowed down to face his.
Lè sa a, Seyè a louvri je Balaram, li fè l' wè zanj lan ki te kanpe nan mitan wout la avèk nepe l' nan men l'. Balaram lage kò l' fas atè.
32 And he said to him [the] angel of Yahweh concerning what? did you strike female donkey your this three feet here! I I came out to an adversary for it is precipitate the way to before me.
Zanj lan di l' konsa: -Poukisa an twa fwa ou bat bourik la konsa? Se mwen menm ki vin bare chemen ou, paske ou pa t' dwe al fè vwayaj sa a.
33 And it saw me the donkey and it turned aside before me this three feet perhaps it had turned aside from before me if now also you I killed and it I preserved alive.
Men bourik ou a te wè m'. Se poutèt sa, an twa fwa, li te vle chankre. Men, ou mèt di l' mèsi, paske si li pa t' fè sa, mwen ta gen tan touye ou. Li menm, mwen pa t'ap fè l' anyen.
34 And he said Balaam to [the] angel of Yahweh I have sinned for not I knew that you [were] standing to meet me in the road and therefore if [it is] displeasing in view your I will turn back for myself.
Balaram reponn: -Sa m' fè a pa bon, vre! Sèlman, mwen pa t' konnen se ou menm ki te bare wout la devan m'. Men si koulye a ou pa vle m' al pi lwen, m'ap tou tounen lakay mwen.
35 And he said [the] angel of Yahweh to Balaam go with the men and only the word which I will speak to you it you will speak and he went Balaam with [the] leaders of Balak.
Men, zanj Bondye a di li: -Ou mèt ale ak mesye yo. Sèlman, pa di anyen pase sa m'a di ou di. Se konsa Balaram ale ak chèf Balak te voye bò kote l' yo.
36 And he heard Balak that he had come Balaam and he went out to meet him to [the] city of Moab which [is] on [the] border of Arnon which [is] at [the] end of the territory.
Lè Balak vin konnen Balaram t'ap vini, li pati, l' al kontre l' jouk Amoab, yon lavil sou fwontyè bò larivyè Anon an.
37 And he said Balak to Balaam ¿ not certainly did I send to you to summon you why? not did you come to me ¿ really not am I able to honor you.
Balak di Balaram konsa: -Ki jan fè mwen voye moun al chache ou, ou pa vin jwenn mwen? Se konprann ou konprann mwen pa ta ka resevwa ou jan ou merite l' la?
38 And he said Balaam to Balak here! I have come to you now ¿ certainly am I able to speak anything the word which he will put God in mouth my it I will speak.
Balaram reponn: -Apa mwen vini fwa sa a! Men mwen tou pale ou, se pawòl Bondye va mete nan bouch mwen ase m'ap di.
39 And he went Balaam with Balak and they came Kiriath-huzoth.
Se konsa, Balaram ale avèk Balak jouk yo rive lavil Kiriyat-Ousòt.
40 And he sacrificed Balak cattle and sheep and he sent to Balaam and to the leaders who [were] with him.
Rive la, Balak fè touye bèf ak mouton, epi li voye kèk moso vyann bay Balaram ansanm ak chèf ki te avè l' yo.
41 And it was in the morning and he took Balak Balaam and he brought up him Bamoth Baal and he saw from there [the] outskirt[s] of the people.
Nan denmen maten, Balak pran Balaram, yo moute sou mòn Bamòtbaal. Antan yo la, yo te kapab wè yon pòsyon nan moun Izrayèl yo.
