Numbers 23
1 And Balaam seide to Balaach, Bilde thou here to me seuene auteris, and make redi so many caluys, and rammes of the same noumbre.
Balaamu anati kwa Balaki, “Mundimangire maguwa ansembe asanu ndi awiri pano, ndipo mukonzenso ngʼombe zazimuna zisanu ndi ziwiri ndi nkhosa zazimuna zisanu ndi ziwiri.”
2 And whanne he hadde do bi the word of Balaam, thei puttiden a calf and a ram to gidere on the auter.
Balaki anachita monga Balaamu ananenera ndipo awiriwo anapereka ngʼombe imodzi ndi nkhosa yayimuna imodzi pa guwa lansembe lililonse.
3 And Balaam seide to Balaach, Stond thou a litil while bisidis thi brent sacrifice, while Y go, if in hap the Lord meete me; and Y schal `speke to thee what euer thing he schal comaunde.
Kenaka Balaamu anati kwa Balaki, “Khalani pano pafupi ndi nsembe yanu ineyo ndipite pambali. Mwina Yehova adzabwera kuti akumane nane. Chilichonse chimene akandionetse ndidzakuwuzani” Choncho anapita ku malo okwera a chipululu.
4 And whanne he hadde go swiftli, God cam to hym; and Balaam spak to hym, and seide, Y reiside seuene auteris, and Y puttide a calf and a ram aboue.
Mulungu anakumana naye ndipo Balaamu anati, “Ndakonza maguwa asanu ndi awiri ndipo pa guwa lililonse ndaperekapo nsembe ya ngʼombe yayimuna imodzi ndi nkhosa yayimuna imodzinso.”
5 Forsothe the Lord `puttide a word in his mouth, and seide, Turne ayen to Balaach, and thou schalt speke these thingis.
Yehova anawuza Balaamu kuti, “Bwerera kwa Balaki ndipo ukamuwuze uthenga uwu.”
6 He turnede ayen, and fond Balach stondynge bisidis his brent sacrifice, and alle the princes of Moabitis.
Ndipo anabwerera kwa iye namupeza atayima pafupi ndi nsembe yake pamodzi ndi akuluakulu onse a Mowabu.
7 And whanne his parable `was takun, he seide, Balaach, the kyng of Moabitis, brouyte me fro Aran, fro the `hillis of the eest; and he seide, Come thou and curse Jacob; haaste thou, and greetli curse thou Israel.
Ndipo Balaamu ananena uthenga wake: “Balaki ananditenga kuchoka ku Aramu, mfumu ya ku Mowabu kuchokera ku mapiri a kummawa. Iye anati, ‘Bwera, temberera Yakobo mʼmalo mwanga, pita nyoza Israeli.’
8 How schal Y curse whom God cursid not? bi what resoun schal Y `haue abhomynable whom God `hath not abhomynable?
Ndingatemberere bwanji amene Mulungu sanawatemberere? Ndinganyoze bwanji amene Yehova sanawanyoze?
9 Fro the hiyeste flyntis Y schal se hym, and fro litle hillis Y schal biholde hym; the puple schal dwelle aloone, and it schal not be arettid among hethene men.
Kuchokera pamwamba pa mapiri ndikuona anthu, ndikuwaona kuchokera pa zitunda. Ndikuona anthu okhala pawokha, osakhala mʼgulu limodzi ndi mitundu ina.
10 Who may noumbre the dust, that is, kynrede, of Jacob, and knowe the noumbre of the generacioun of Israel? My lijf die in the deeth of iust men, and my laste thingis be maad lijk hem!
Ndani angawerenge zidzukulu za Yakobo zochuluka ngati fumbi, kapena chimodzi mwa zigawo zinayi za Israeli? Lekeni ndife imfa ya oyera mtima, ndi chimaliziro changa chikhale ngati chawo!”
11 And Balaach seide to Balaam, What is this that thou doist? Y clepide thee, that thou schuldist curse myn enemyes, and ayenward thou blessist hem.
Balaki anati kwa Balaamu, “Wandichitira chiyani? Ndinakuyitana kuti utemberere adani anga, ndipo taona, sunachite chilichonse koma kuwadalitsa!”
12 To whom Balaam answeride, Whether Y may speke othir thing no but that that the Lord comaundith?
Iye anayankha kuti, “Kodi sindinayenera kuyankhula zimene Yehova anandiwuza?”
13 Therfor Balaach seide to Balaam, Come with me in to anothir place, fro whennus thou se a part of Israel, and mayst not se al; fro thennus curse thou hym.
Kenaka Balaki anawuza Balaamu kuti, “Tiye tipite limodzi ku malo ena komwe ungawaone. Udzangoona gulu limodzi osati onsewo. Ndipo pamenepo, ukawatemberere mʼmalo mwanga.”
14 And whanne he hadde led Balaam in to an hiy place, on the cop of the hil of Phasga, he bildide seuene auteris to Balaam, and whanne calues and rammes weren put aboue,
Tsono anamutengera ku munda wa Zofimu pamwamba pa phiri la Pisiga ndipo kumeneko anamanga maguwa ansembe asanu ndi awiri ndipo anapereka nsembe ngʼombe yayimuna imodzi ndi nkhosa yayimuna imodzi pa guwa lansembe lililonse.
15 he seide to Balaach, Stonde here bisidis thi brent sacrifice, while Y go.
Balaamu anawuza Balaki kuti, “Khalani pano pafupi ndi nsembe yanu pamene ine ndikukakumana ndi Mulungu cha uko.”
16 And whanne the Lord hadde `come to him, and hadde put `a word in his mouth, he seide, Turne ayen to Balach, and thou schalt seie these thingis to hym.
Yehova anakumana ndi Balaamu ndipo anamuyankhula kuti, “Bwerera kwa Balaki ndipo ukamuwuze uthenga uwu.”
17 He turnyde ayen, and foond Balach stondynge bisidis his brent sacrifice, and the princis of Moabitis with hym. To whom Balach seide, What spak the Lord?
Ndipo anapita kwa iye ndipo anamupeza atayimirira pafupi ndi nsembe yake pamodzi ndi akuluakulu a ku Mowabu. Balaki anafunsa Balaamu kuti, “Yehova wayankhula chiyani?”
18 And whanne his parable `was takun, he seide, Stonde, Balach, and herkene; here, thou sone of Sephor. God is not `as a man,
Pamenepo Balaamu ananena uthenga wake: “Nyamuka Balaki ndipo tamvera; Undimvere iwe mwana wa Zipori.
19 that he lye, nethir he is as the sone of a man, that he be chaungid; therfor he seide, and schal he not do? he spak, and schal he not fulfille?
Mulungu si munthu kuti aname, kapena mwana wa munthu kuti asinthe maganizo ake. Kodi amayankhula koma osachita? Kodi amalonjeza koma osakwaniritsa?
20 Y am brouyt to blesse, Y may not forbede blessyng.
Wandilamula kuti ndidalitse, Iyeyo wadalitsa ndipo sindingasinthe.
21 Noon idol is in Jacob, nethir symylacre is seyn in Israel; his Lord God is with hym, and the sown of victorie of kyng is in hym.
“Palibe kuwukira kulikonse kumene wakuona mwa Yakobo, sanaone chovuta mu Israeli. Yehova Mulungu wawo ali nawo: mfuwu wa mfumu uli pakati pawo.
22 The Lord God ledde hym out of Egipt, whos strengthe is lijk an vnicorn;
Mulungu wowatulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto, ali ndi mphamvu ngati za njati.
23 fals tellyng bi chiteryng of bryddis, `ethir idolatrie, is not in Jacob, nethir fals dyuynyng is in Israel. In his tymes it schal be seide to Jacob and Israel, What the Lord hath wrought!
Palibe matsenga amene angalimbane ndi Yakobo, palibe mawula amene angalimbane ndi Israeli. Tsopano za Yakobo ndi Israeli adzanena kuti, ‘Onani zimene Mulungu wachita!’
24 Lo! the puple schal rise to gidere as a lionesse, and schal be reisid as a lioun; the lioun schal not reste, til he deuoure prey, and drynke the blood of hem that ben slayn.
Taonani, anthu anyamuka ngati mkango waukazi; adzuka okha ngati mkango waumuna umene supuma mpaka utadya nyama imene wagwira ndi kumwa magazi a nyama yogwidwayo.”
25 And Balach seide to Balaam, Nether curse thou, nether blesse thou hym.
Ndipo Balaki anati kwa Balaamu, “Usawatemberere ndi pangʼono pomwe kapena kuwadalitsa!
26 And he seide, Whether Y seide not to thee, that what euer thing that God comaundide to me, Y wolde do this?
“Balaamu anayankha Balaki kuti, ‘Kodi sindinakuwuzeni kuti ndiyenera kuchita zimene Yehova wanena?’”
27 And Balach seide to hym, Come, and Y schal lede thee to an other place, if in hap it plesith God that fro thennus thou curse hym.
Kenaka Balaki anati kwa Balaamu, “Bwera ndikutengere ku malo ena. Mwina chidzamukondweretsa Mulungu kuti uwatemberere kumeneko mʼmalo mwanga.”
28 And whanne Balaach hadde led hym out on the `cop of the hil of Phegor, that biholdith the wildirnesse,
Ndipo Balaki anamutengera Balaamu pamwamba pa Peori, poyangʼanana ndi chipululu.
29 Balaam seide to hym, Bilde here seuene auteris to me, and make redi so many caluys, and rammes of the same noumbre.
Balaamu anati kwa Balaki, “Mundimangire maguwa ansembe asanu ndi awiri pano ndipo mundikonzere ngʼombe zazimuna zisanu ndi ziwiri, nkhosa zazimuna zisanu ndi ziwiri.”
30 Balaach dide as Balaam seide, and he puttide caluys and rammes, bi alle auteris.
Balaki anachita monga Balaamu ananenera ndipo anapereka nsembe ngʼombe imodzi yayimuna ndi nkhosa imodzi yayimuna pa guwa lililonse.
