< Numbers 24 >
1 Balaam now realized that Yahweh wanted to bless the Israeli people, [not curse them]. So he did not use magic/divination [like a shaman would do] to find out what Yahweh wanted, as he often did. Instead, he turned toward the desert.
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma Israeli vahe asomu kema huzamantea zama Balamu'ma keno antahino'ma nehuno'a, Agra mago'anena nehiaza osu'neanki, avugosa rukrahe huno hagege ka'ma kokantega hunte'ne.
2 He saw the Israeli people camped there [in their tents], with each tribe gathered in its own group. Then the Spirit of God took control of him,
Hagi Balamu'a anama Israeli vahe'mo'zama nagate nofite'ma seli nonkuma'ma antetere hu'naza kuma'ma negegeno, Ra Anumzamofo Avamumo agripi emanigeno,
3 and enabled him to give this prophetic message to Balak: “I, Balaam, the son of Beor, am giving this prophecy; I am speaking as a man who sees [what will happen in the future] clearly speaks.
amanage huno kasnampa nanekea huama hu'ne, ama nanekea Beori nemofo Balamu miko'zama keama huno negea ne'mofo kasnampa naneke.
4 I hear this message from God; I see a vision from him who is all-powerful. My eyes are open as I prostrate myself in front of him.
Hagi ama Anumzamofo kea nentahina, hanave'ane Anumzamo'ma ava'nagna zana naverige'na nege'na, mikazana keama hu'na negoe.
5 You descendants of Jacob, your tents are very beautiful; they are truly lovely!
Israeli naga'mota seli no kumatamimo'a knare'zantfa hu'ne. Jekopu nagamota nomani zantamimo'a knare zantfa hu'ne.
6 Your tents are spread out [in front of me like groves of palm trees in] valleys, like gardens alongside a river. They are like strong aloe trees/plants that Yahweh has planted, like [strong] cedar trees [that grow] along the rivers.
Hagi agupo kokamo me'no viankna nehigeno, tinkenare me'nea hozagna nehuno, Alovera traza Ra Anumzamo kriankna nehu'no, sida zafamo tinkenare hageanka hu'ne.
7 Your water buckets will always be full; the seeds [that you plant] will always have plenty of water [to make them grow]. The Israelis’ king will be greater than [King] Agag; the kingdom that he rules will be honored.
Timo'a zamagri tafempintira tagiramigahie. Zamagri mofavremo'za rama'a tina erigahaze. Tamagri kinima fore'ma hanimo'a Ameleki kini nera Agakina agatereno himamu hanave'ane kini ne manisige'za agrama kegavama hania kumara husga huntegahaze.
8 God brought the Israelis out of Egypt, [leading them along] with his great power [MTY] like a wild ox has. He devastates all the nations that oppose him; he breaks all those people’s bones into pieces, and shoots them with his arrows.
Hagi afi bulimakaomofo hanavemo'ma hiaza huno Ra Anumzamo'a Isipitira zamavareno atiramino e'ne. Hagi miko kumate vahera zamahe fananene nehu'za, ha' vahe'zamia kevereti zamaheno zaferinazamia rugorigahie.
9 The Israelis are like lions that crouch and lie down, [ready to pounce on their prey] [SIM]. They are like lionesses [that are resting, but ready to attack]; no one [RHQ] would dare to arouse them! [God] will bless everyone who blesses you Israelis, and he will curse everyone who curses you.”
Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za laionimo avu mase'nege'za vahe'mo'za azeri oti'zanku kore nehazankna vahere. Hagi iza'o asomu ke'ma huzamantesimo'a, asomu erigahie. Hagi iza'o kazusi kema huzamantesimo'a, agra'a haviza hugahie.
10 Then King Balak was extremely angry with Balaam. He showed with his hands that he was very angry, and he [shouted at Balaam], “I summoned you here to curse my enemies! Instead, you have (blessed/asked God to bless) them three times!
Hagi Balaki'a ana nanekema nentahino'a tusi rimpa ahegeno agra'a azana rupro nehuno anage hu'ne, antahio kagra ha' vaheni'a kazusi huzamantesanegu ke hugenka amafina e'nananagi, 3'a zupa asomu kea huzamantane.
11 So now, get out of here! Go back home! I said that I would pay you a lot of money [if you cursed them], but Yahweh has prevented you from getting any pay!”
E'ina hanku menina kagra amafintira maniganenka ame hunka kumaka'arega vuo. Hagi rama'aza kaminaku huanagi, mizama kaminaku'ma huazana Ra Anumzankamo asevazigantegu, mizana onkamigosue.
12 Balaam said to Balak, “[Do you not remember what] [RHQ] I told the messengers that you sent to me? I said,
Higeno Balamu'a ana kenona Balakina asamino, kema huzamantanke'za ome nasami'naza vahera nagra anage hu'na zamasami'noe.
13 ‘Even if Balak would give me a palace filled with silver and gold, I would not disobey Yahweh. I cannot do anything bad or anything that is good [that he does not approve of].’ And I told you that I could say only what Yahweh says to me.
Balaki'a silvane golinema avite'nenia noma'a namigahianagi, Ra Anumzamofona rimpa eri haviza hu'na nagra navesitera ra zano osi'zano osugahuanki, Agrama huo huno'ma hania ke'age hugahue.
14 So yes, I will return to my people, but first, allow me to tell you what will happen to you Moab people in the future.”
Hagi nagra menina vahe'nirega vugahuanki, ege'na henka'ama Israeli vahe'mo'zama vahekama huzamantesaza zamofo nanekea kasami'neno.
15 So Balaam said this [to Balak]: “I, Balaam, son of Beor, am again giving a prophecy, speaking as a man who sees [what will happen in the future] clearly speaks.
Hagi Balamu'a anage huno kasnampa kea Balakina asami'ne, ama Beori nemofo Balamu avureti amate keni'ma hu'nea ne'mofo kasnampa ke.
16 I hear a message from God; I know things that God, who lives in heaven, has [revealed to me]. I see a vision from him who is all-powerful. My eyes are open as I prostrate myself in front of him.
Hagi nagra Ra Anumzamofo kea nentahina, Mrerisa Anumzamofo antahintahi'a antahi ama nehu'na, Hankave'ane Ra Anumzamo ava'nagna zampi naveri hige'na, keama nehu'na mopafi mase'noanagi navumo'a hari hu'ne.
17 The things that I see [in the vision] are not [going to happen] now; I see things [that God will cause to happen] in the future. A man who is [a descendant of] Jacob will appear like a star [MET]; a king who holds a scepter will be one of the Israeli people. He will crush the heads of you people of Moab; he will wipe out the descendants of Seth.
Hagi nagra ana avanagna zampina mago vahe ke'noanagi, henka fore hugahie. Jekopumpinti masanentake hanafira hanatino remsa hanigeno, kinimo'ma e'neria azotamo'a Israeli vahepinti enkeno, Moapu vahe'mota tamahe vaganereno, Seti mofavreramina zmasenia ruprorovazino zamahegahie.
18 The Israelis will occupy Edom, and they will conquer their enemies [who live near] Seir [Mountain]. The Israeli people will be victorious/strong.
Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za Idomu vahera hahuzamante'za mopazmia erinafa'a nehu'za, ha' vahe'zami Seiri vahe'mokizmi mopa erinafa'a hugahaze. Ana nehu'za Israeli vahe'mo'za hihamu vahe manigahaze.
19 A ruler who is a descendant of Jacob will come; he will get rid of the people who still live in the city [where Balaam first met Balak].”
Hagi Jekopu nagapinti mago'mo ana mopa kva mani'neno, mago'ama mesia rankumara erihaviza hugahie.
20 Then Balaam looked out over where the Amalek people-group [lived], and he prophesied this: “The Amalek people-group were the greatest nation, but they will be wiped out.”
Hagi anante Balamu'a Ameleki vahe'ma mani'nazarega nezmageno, anage huno kasnampa kea hu'ne, Amelekia hanave kuma meno ugota hu'neanagi, eri haviza hanigeno haviza hugahie.
21 Then he looked out over the area where the Ken people-group [lived], and he prophesied this: “You [think that] the place where you live is secure/safe like a nest that is made in the cliffs [MET],
Hagi anante Kin vahe'ma mani'nazarega nezmageno kasnampa kea anage hu'ne, tamagra vahemo tamazeri haviza osaniegu namamo'ma havefi noma kiaza hu'naze.
22 but you will be wiped out when the army of Assyria conquers you.”
Hianagi Asuri vahe'mo'zama eme zamavare'za kinama ome hunezamantesageno, tamagerafa huno Kin kumatamimo'a haviza hugahie.
23 Balaam ended his prophecies by saying, “Also, (who can (survive/escape) when God does all these things?/no one will be able to (survive/escape) when God does all these things!) [RHQ]
Hagi Balamu'a huvagare kasnampa kea anage hu'ne, Anumzamo'ma ama zama erifore'ma nehanigeno'a, iza amafina manigahie?
24 Ships will come from Cyprus [Island], and [the men in those ships] will defeat [the armies of] Assyria and Eber. But God will get rid of those men, too.”
Hianagi Saiprusi kazigati ventemo'a eno Asuri vahe'ene, Eberi vahera zamahe'nige'za fanene hugahaze. Hianagi zamagri'enena zamahe fanene hugahaze.
25 Then Balaam and Balak returned to their homes.
Hagi anantetira Balamu'a oti'no, kuma'arega vigeno, Balakia kuma'arega vu'ne.
