< 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.
Nionjom-beo o ana’Israeleo nitobe an-tanemira’ i Moabe alafe’ Iardene tandrife Ierikò ey.
2 And he saw Balak [the] son of Zippor all that it had done Israel to the Amorite[s].
Ie amy zao hene nioni’ i Balak’ ana’ i Tsipore i nanoe’ Israele amo nte-Emoreoy.
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.
Aa le nirevendreveñe am’ondatio t’i Moabe kanao ninihanìha ty hamaro’e; le nanembetse i Moabe o ana’ Israeleo.
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.
Aa le hoe ty Moabe amo roandria’ i Midianeo, Fonga ho tselà’ i lahialeñey ze mañohoke an-tika manahake ty famelehan’ añombe o ahetse an-kivok’ ey. Mpanjaka’ o nte-Moabeo henane zay t’i Balak’ ana’ i Tsipore.
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.
Le nampisangitrife’e mb’amy Balame ana’ i Beore e Petore añolon-tsaka’ an-tanen-te-Arame añe ty irake hikanjiy aze ami’ty hoe: Inao, nivotrake boake Mitsraime añe t’indaty; hehe t’ie manitsike ty ambone’ ty tane toy vaho mitobe marine ahiko etoa.
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.
Mb’etoa aniany koahe, ozoño ho ahy ondatio, ie manjofake te amako. Hera ho gioheko le ho soiheñe hiakatse an-tane atoy, fa apotako te soa tata o tatae’oo vaho fatran-tane o ozoñe’oo.
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.
Aa le niavotse mb’eo o roandria’ i Moabeo naho o roandria’ i Midianeo reketse ty saram-pamorehañe am-pitàñe vaho niheo mb’amy Balame mb’eo ninday ty nisaontsia’ i Balake.
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.
Le hoe re tam’ iereo, mialeña atoy te anito, le hañerem-bolañ’ ama’ areo iraho, ze ho tsarae’ Iehovà amako. Aa le nialeñe amy Balame ao o roandria’ i Moabeo.
9 And he came God to Balaam and he said who? [are] the men these with you.
Niheo mb’amy Balame t’i Andrianañahare nanao ty hoe: Ia ondaty mitraok’ ama’oo?
10 And he said Balaam to God Balak [the] son of Zippor [the] king of Moab he sent to me.
Le hoe t’i Balame aman’ Añahare, Nampañitrike ty saontsy toy amako t’i Balak’ ana’ i Tsipore:
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.
Heheke ondaty hirike Mitsraime añeo: tsitsihe’ iareo ty ambone’ ty tane toy; aa le mb’etoa irehe, ozoño ho ahiko; hera hahalefeako aly vaho haronjeko añe.
12 And he said God to Balaam not you will go with them not you will curse the people for [is] blessed it.
Le hoe t’i Andrianañahare amy Balame, Tsy hindreza’o fañaveloañe; tsy hozoñe’o ondatio fa soa-tata.
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.
Aa le nitroatse maraiñe t’i Balame nanao ty hoe amo roandria’ i Balàkeo, Mimpolia mb’ an-tane’ areo añe, amy te nifoneñe t’Iehovà tsy nañomey ahy lily hindrezako.
14 And they arose [the] leaders of Moab and they went to Balak and they said he has refused Balaam to come with us.
Aa le niongake o roandria’ i Moabeo nimpoly mb’ amy Balàke mb’eo, nanao ty hoe: Tsy nimete nindre ama’ay t’i Balame.
15 And he repeated again Balak to send leaders many and honored more than these.
Nañitrik’ ana-donake indraike t’i Balake, ondaty maro naho ambone’ lohàñe te amo teoo.
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.
Aa le niheo mb’ amy Balame mb’eo indaty rey nanao ty hoe, Hoe t’i Balak’ ana’ i Tsipore, Ko anga’o ndra inoñ’ inoñe ty hisebañe azo tsy homb’ amako mb’etoa;
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.
toe ho rengèko vaho hanoeko ze saontsia’o. Aa le miambane ama’o t’ie homb’etoa hañozoñe ondatio ho ahiko.
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].
Le hoe ty natoi’ i Balame amo mpitoro’ i Balakeo, Ndra te natolo’ i Balak’ amako ty anjomba’e pea volafoty naho volamena le tsy mete handilatse ty tsara’ Iehovà Andrianañahareko iraho hanao ndra inoñ’ inoñe ke t’ie bey he kede.
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.
Aa le mialeña amako etoa manahake ty nanoe’ o ila’eo haharendrehako ze tsara hatovo’ Iehovà amako.
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.
Le niheo mb’ amy Balame amy haleñey t’i Andrianañahare nanao ty hoe ama’e, Aa naho nimb’ama’o mb’ atoy ondatio hikanjy azo, miavota naho indrezo; fe ze entañe hatoloko azo avao ty hanoe’o.
21 And he arose Balaam in the morning and he saddled donkey his and he went with [the] leaders of Moab.
Aa le nañaleñaleñe t’i Balame nanampe fitobohañe amy borìke’ey, vaho nitrao-dia amo androanavi’ i Moabeo.
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.
Fe nampamiañe ty haviñeran’ Añahare i fañavelo’ey, vaho nijohañe hikalañe i lala’ey ty Anjeli’ Iehovà, hiatreatrea’e hoe rafelahy. Ie amy zao niningitse borìke naho nindre ama’e ty mpitoro’e roe.
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.
Nahatrea i Anjeli’ Iehovày nijohañe an-dalañe ey reketse fibara natsoak’ am-pità’e i borìkey, le nivioñe amy lalañey i borìkey nitsile mb’an-tetek’ ao, le finofo’ i Balame ty lafa hampibalik’ aze mb’amy lalañey.
24 And he stood [the] angel of Yahweh in [the] narrow way of the vineyards a wall from this and a wall from this.
Le nijohañe ami’ ty zitse añivo’ ty tanem-bahe roe ey i Anjeli’ Iehovày, ty kijoly etia naho ty kijoly etia.
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.
Ie nitrea’ i borìkey i Anjeli’ Iehovày le nioza amy rindriñey, vaho nanindry ty kitso’ i Balame amy rindriñey, aa le linafa’e indraike.
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].
Nihànkañe aolo ey amy zao i Anjeli’ Iehovày nijohañe añ’ oloñoloñe ey, le tsy eo ty hivioñañe ndra mañavana ndra mañavia.
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.
Naho nizoe’ i borìkey i Anjeli’ Iehovày le nibabok’ ambane’ i Balame eo; tsekak’ amy zao ty haboseha’ i Balame le finofo’e an-kobai’e i borìkey.
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.
Aa le sinoka’ Iehovà ty vava’ i borìkey, vaho hoe re amy Balame, Ino ty nanoeko ama’o kanao linafa’o intelo aniany?
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.
Le hoe t’i Balame amy borìkey, Amy t’ie nanalatse ahy, le nainako te ni-reke-pibara ty tañako henaneo hamonoako azo!
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.
Aa le hoe i borìkey amy Balame, Tsy izaho hao o borìke’oo, i niningira’o amo hene tao’o pake henaneoy? Liliko hao ty manao zao ama’o? Aiy, hoe re.
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.
Aa le nampibeahe’ Iehovà ty fihaino’ i Balame naho niisa’e nijohañe amy lalañey i anjeliy, am-pibara napontsoañe am-pità’e; le nibotreke re nibabok’ an-dahara’e.
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.
Le hoe i Anjeli’ Iehovày ama’e, Inoñe ty nijerà’o i borìke’oy in-telo? Nimb’ atoy iraho am-pirafelahiañe, amy te ihe manao hajangaringaria añatrefako.
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.
Nitrea’ i borìkey iraho le nivioña’e intelo. Aa naho tsy niholiara’e le toe ho nañe-doza ama’o iraho anianikey vaho ho nengako velon-dre.
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.
Le hoe t’i Balame amy Anjeli’ Iehovày, Nanao hakeo iraho fa tsy napotako te nijohañe an-dalañe ey irehe hiatreatre ahy. Aa naho joy ty am-pihano’o le himpoly iraho.
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.
Aa le hoe i Anjeli’ Iehovày amy Balame, Akia, mindreza am’ondaty reo, fe ze entañe volañeko ama’o avao ty ho taroñe’o. Aa le nañavelo nindre lia amy androanavi’ i Balàke rey t’i Balame.
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.
Ie jinanji’ i Balake te fa tsatoke t’i Balame le niavotse mb’e Ire-Moabe mb’amy efe-tane efera’ i Arnoney, ty efe’e lavitse ama’e mb’eo hifanalaka ama’e.
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.
Le hoe t’i Balak’ amy Balame, Aa vaho tsy nimaneako hitrike naho kanjy v’iheo? Ino ty tsy nañaveloa’o mb’amako. Tsy haiko hao ty hiasy azo?
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.
Le hoe t’i Balame amy Balake, Intoy fa ama’o! meteko hao ty hanao ndra inoñ’ inoñe? Tsy mahay tsy ze tsara apon’ Añahare am-bavako ao avao ty ho taroñeko.
39 And he went Balaam with Balak and they came Kiriath-huzoth.
Aa le nindre lia amy Balake t’i Balame vaho nipotìtse e Keriat-kozote eo.
40 And he sacrificed Balak cattle and sheep and he sent to Balaam and to the leaders who [were] with him.
Nisoroñe añombe naho añondry amy zao t’i Balake vaho nañitrifa’e t’i Balame naho o androanavy nindre ama’eo.
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.
Ie amy maraiñey le nendese’ i Balake nañambone’ i Bamà-Baale t’i Balame, le eo re ro nahatalake ty indra’ ondatio.
