Numbers 23
1 And Balaam saith unto Balak, 'Build for me in this [place] seven altars, and make ready for me in this [place] seven bullocks and seven rams.'
Bala’am ya ce, “Ka gina mini bagadai bakwai a nan, ka shirya mini bijimai bakwai da raguna bakwai.”
2 And Balak doth as Balaam hath spoken, and Balak — Balaam also — offereth a bullock and a ram on the altar,
Balak ya yi yadda Bala’am ya faɗa, sai su biyu suka miƙa bijimi da rago a kan kowane bagade.
3 and Balaam saith to Balak, 'Station thyself by thy burnt-offering and I go on, it may be Jehovah doth come to meet me, and the thing which He sheweth me — I have declared to thee;' and he goeth [to] a high place.
Sa’an nan Bala’am ya ce wa Balak, “Tsaya nan kusa da hadayarka, ni kuwa in koma wani wurin da yake a kaɗaice. Wataƙila Ubangiji zai sadu da ni. Duk abin da ya bayyana mini, zan faɗa maka.” Sai ya haura kan wani wurin da yake a kaɗaice a tudun.
4 And God cometh unto Balaam, and he saith unto Him, 'The seven altars I have arranged, and I offer a bullock and a ram on the altar;'
Allah kuwa ya sadu da Bala’am. Bala’am ya ce, “Na shirya bagadai bakwai, na kuma miƙa bijimi guda da rago guda, a kan kowane bagade.”
5 and Jehovah putteth a word in the mouth of Balaam, and saith, 'Turn back unto Balak, and thus thou dost speak.'
Ubangiji ya ba wa Bala’am saƙo ya ce, “Ka koma wurin Balak, ka faɗa masa wannan saƙo.”
6 And he turneth back unto him, and lo, he is standing by his burnt-offering, he and all the princes of Moab.
Saboda haka, sai Bala’am ya koma wurin Balak ya same shi tsaye a kusa da hadayarsa, tare da dukan dattawan Mowab.
7 And he taketh up his simile, and saith: 'From Aram he doth lead me — Balak king of Moab; From mountains of the east: Come — curse for me Jacob, And come — be indignant [with] Israel.
Sai Bala’am ya furta abin da Allah ya faɗa masa ya ce, “Balak ya kawo ni daga Aram, sarkin Mowab ya kawo ni daga gabashin duwatsu. Ya ce, ‘Zo, ka la’anta mini Yaƙub; zo, ka tsine Isra’ila.’
8 What — do I pierce? — God hath not pierced! And what — am I indignant? — Jehovah hath not been indignant!
Yaya zan iya la’anta waɗanda Allah bai la’anta ba? Yaya zan tsine waɗanda Ubangiji bai tsine ba?
9 For from the top of rocks I see it, And from heights I behold it; Lo a people! alone it doth tabernacle, And among nations doth not reckon itself.
Daga kan duwatsu na gan su, daga bisa kan tuddai na hange su. Na ga mutane da suke zaune su kaɗai ba sa ɗauki kansu ɗaya da al’ummai ba.
10 Who hath counted the dust of Jacob, And the number of the fourth of Israel? Let me die the death of upright ones, And let my last end be like his!'
Wa zai iya ƙidaya ƙurar Yaƙub ko yă ƙidaya kashi ɗaya bisa huɗu na Isra’ila? Bari in mutu, mutuwar adali ƙarshena kuma yă zama kamar nasu!”
11 And Balak saith unto Balaam, 'What hast thou done to me? to pierce mine enemies I have taken thee — and lo, thou hast certainly blessed;'
Balak ya ce wa Bala’am, “Me ke nan ka yi mini? Na kawo ka, ka la’anta abokan gābana, sai ga shi albarka kake sa musu!”
12 and he answereth and saith, 'That which Jehovah doth put in my mouth — it do I not take heed to speak?'
Bala’am ya ce, “Ba dole in faɗa abin da Ubangiji ya sa a bakina ba?”
13 And Balak saith unto him, 'Come, I pray thee, with me unto another place, whence thou dost see it, only its extremity thou dost see, and all of it thou dost not see, and pierce it for me thence;'
Sa’an nan Balak ya ce masa, “Zo, mu tafi wani wuri inda za ka gan su; a nan kana ganin sashe ne kawai, ba dukansu ba. Daga can kuwa, ka la’anta mini su.”
14 and he taketh him [to] the field of Zophim, unto the top of Pisgah, and buildeth seven altars, and offereth a bullock and a ram on the altar.
Saboda haka ya ɗauke shi zuwa filin Zofim a ƙwanƙolin Fisga, a can ya gina bagadai bakwai, ya kuma miƙa bijimi da rago a kan kowane bagade.
15 And he saith unto Balak, 'Station thyself here by thy burnt-offering, and I — I meet [Him] there;'
Bala’am ya ce wa Balak, “Tsaya nan kusa da hadayarka, ni kuwa in je in sadu da Ubangiji a can.”
16 and Jehovah cometh unto Balaam, and setteth a word in his mouth, and saith, 'Turn back unto Balak, and thus thou dost speak.'
Ubangiji ya sadu da Bala’am, ya kuma ba shi saƙo ya ce, “Koma wurin Balak ka ba shi wannan saƙo.”
17 And he cometh unto him, and lo, he is standing by his burnt-offering, and the princes of Moab with him, and Balak saith to him: 'What hath Jehovah spoken?'
Saboda haka ya tafi ya same Balak tsaye a kusa da hadayarsa, tare da dattawan Mowab. Balak ya tambaye Bala’am ya ce, “Mene ne Ubangiji ya ce?”
18 And he taketh up his simile, and saith: 'Rise, Balak, and hear; Give ear unto me, son of Zippor!
Sai Bala’am ya furta saƙon da aka ba shi ya ce, “Tashi, Balak, ka saurara; ka kasa kunne gare ni, ɗan Ziffor.
19 God [is] not a man — and lieth, And a son of man — and repenteth! Hath He said — and doth He not do [it]? And spoken — and doth He not confirm it?
Allah ba mutum ba ne, da zai yi ƙarya, shi ba ɗan mutum ba ne, da zai canja tunaninsa. Yana maganar abin da ba zai iya aikata ba ne? Yakan kuma yi alkawarin da ba zai iya cikawa ba?
20 Lo, to bless I have received: Yea, He blesseth, and I [can] not reverse it.
Na karɓi umarni in sa albarka; na kuwa sa albarka, ba zan iya janye ta ba.
21 He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, Nor hath He seen perverseness in Israel; Jehovah his God [is] with him, And a shout of a king [is] in him.
“Bai ga mugunta a cikin Yaƙub ba, bai kuma ga wahala a Isra’ila ba. Ubangiji Allahnsu yana tare da su; sowar Sarki yana cikinsu.
22 God is bringing them out from Egypt, As the swiftness of a Reem is to him;
Allah ya fitar da su daga Masar; suna da ƙarfi iri na kutunkun ɓauna.
23 For no enchantment [is] against Jacob, Nor divination against Israel, At the time it is said of Jacob and Israel, What hath God wrought!
Ba wata maitar da za tă ci Yaƙub, ba sihiri da zai cuci Isra’ila. Yanzu za a ce game da Yaƙub da Isra’ila, ‘Duba abin da Allah ya yi!’
24 Lo, the people as a lioness riseth, And as a lion he lifteth himself up, He lieth not down till he eateth prey, And blood of pierced ones doth drink.'
Mutane sun tashi kamar ƙaƙƙarfar zakanya; sun tā da kansu kamar zaki wanda ba ya hutawa sai ya cinye naman abin da ya kama ya kuma sha jinin abin da ya kama.”
25 And Balak saith unto Balaam, 'Neither pierce it at all, nor bless it at all;'
Sai Balak ya ce wa Bala’am, “Kada ka la’anta su, kada kuma ka sa musu albarka!”
26 and Balaam answereth and saith unto Balak, 'Have I not spoken unto thee, saying, All that Jehovah speaketh — it I do?'
Bala’am amsa ya ce, “Ban faɗa maka zan yi kaɗai abin da Ubangiji ya ce ba?”
27 And Balak saith unto Balaam, 'Come, I pray thee, I take thee unto another place; it may be it is right in the eyes of God — to pierce it for me from thence.'
Sai Balak ya ce wa Bala’am, “Zo in kai ka wani wuri. Wataƙila zai gamshi Allah, yă bari ka la’anta mini su daga can.”
28 And Balak taketh Balaam to the top of Peor, which is looking on the front of the wilderness,
Balak kuwa ya ɗauki Bala’am zuwa ƙwanƙolin Feyor, wanda yake fuskantar hamada.
29 and Balaam saith unto Balak, 'Build for me in this [place] seven altars, and make ready for me in this [place] seven bullocks and seven rams;'
Bala’am ya ce, “Ka gina mini bagadai bakwai a nan, ka kuma shirya mini bijimai bakwai da raguna bakwai.”
30 and Balak doth as Balaam said, and he offereth a bullock and a ram on an altar.
Balak ya yi yadda Bala’am ya ce, ya kuwa miƙa bijimi da rago a kan kowane bagade.
