1 Balaram di Balak konsa: -Bati sèt lotèl isit la pou mwen. Apre sa, ban mwen sèt towo bèf ak sèt belye mouton.
And he said Balaam to Balak build for me in this [place] seven altars and prepare for me in this [place] seven young bulls and seven rams.
2 Balak fè sa Balaram te di l' fè a. Lèfini, Balaram ak Balak touye yon towo bèf ak yon belye mouton sou chak lotèl.
And he did Balak just as he had spoken Balaam and he offered up Balak and Balaam a young bull and a ram on the altar.
3 Apre sa, Balaram di Balak konsa: -Rete kanpe bò kote ofrann ou mete ap boule la a. Mwen menm, mwen pral wè si Seyè a p'ap vin jwenn mwen. Apre sa, m'a fè ou konnen sa l'a fè m' wè a. Epi l' ale sou tèt yon ti mòn ki pa t' gen yon ti pyebwa sou li.
And he said Balaam to Balak take your stand with burnt offering your so let me go perhaps he will meet Yahweh to meet me and [the] word of whatever he will show me and I will tell to you and he went a bare height.
4 Epi Bondye vin jwenn li la. Balaram di l' konsa: -Mwen te fè bati sèt lotèl pou ou, epi mwen te touye yon towo bèf ak yon belye mouton sou chak lotèl pou ou.
And he met God Balaam and he said to him [the] seven the altars I have arranged and I have offered up a young bull and a ram on the altar.
5 Seyè a pale ak Balaram byen pale. Apre sa, li di l': -Tounen bò kote Balak. W'a pale avè l' jan mwen di ou la.
And he put Yahweh a word in [the] mouth of Balaam and he said return to Balak and thus you will speak.
6 Se konsa, Balaram tounen bò kote Balak. Li jwenn li kanpe bò ofrann boule yo ansanm ak lòt chèf moun Moab yo.
And he returned to him and there! [he was] standing with burnt offering his he and all [the] leaders of Moab.
7 Lèfini, li pran chante chante sa a: -Balak fè m' kite peyi m', peyi Aram. Wa Moab la fè m' desann soti nan mòn bò solèy leve yo. Li di m': Vini non! Vin bay moun Jakòb yo madichon. Vini non! Vin kraponnen moun Izrayèl yo.
And he lifted up oracle his and he said from Aram he led me Balak [the] king of Moab from [the] mountains of [the] east come! curse! for me Jacob and come! denounce! Israel.
8 Men ki jan ou ta vle pou m' madichonnen moun Bondye pa madichonnen? Ki jan ou ta vle pou m' kraponnen moun Bondye pa kraponnen?
What? will I curse [one whom] not he has cursed him God and what? will I denounce [one whom] not he has denounced Yahweh.
9 Mwen kanpe sou tèt gwo wòch yo, mwen wè yo. Antan mwen sou ti mòn yo, m'ap gade anba: Wi, se yon pèp k'ap viv yon jan apa pou kont li. Se yon pèp ki pa menm ak lòt pèp yo!
For from [the] top of [the] rocks I see him and from [the] hills I observe him there! a people [which] alone it dwells and among the nations not it reckons itself.
10 Ki moun ki ka konte valè pitit Jakòb genyen? Yo anpil tankou grenn pousyè ki sou latè. Ki moun ki ka konte valè pitit Izrayèl yo ye? Mwen ta renmen mouri tankou moun ki mache dwat devan Bondye. Mwen ta renmen fini tankou yo ak kè poze.
Who? has he counted [the] dust of Jacob and a number [the] fourth part of Israel let it die self my [the] death of upright [people] and let it be end my like his.
11 Balak di Balaram: -Kisa w'ap fè m' konsa? Mwen mennen ou isit la pou bay lènmi m' yo madichon, epi se beni mwen wè w'ap beni yo!
And he said Balak to Balaam what? have you done to me to curse enemies my I took you and here! you have blessed actually.
12 Balaram reponn: -Mwen te tou di ou se sèlman pawòl Seyè a va mete nan bouch mwen m'ap di.
And he answered and he said ¿ not [that] which he will put Yahweh in mouth my it will I take care to speak.
13 Balak di Balaram konsa: -Ann al avè m' yon lòt kote. Antan ou va la, ou p'ap wè tout pèp Izrayèl la, men sèlman yon pòsyon ladan l'. W'a rete kanpe la, epi w'a bay ti sa w'a wè a madichon pou mwen.
And he said to him Balak (come there! *Q(K)*) please with me to a place another where you will see it from there only outskirt[s] its you will see and all of it not you will see and curse it for me from there.
14 Balak pran Balaram, li mennen l' nan jaden Santinèl yo, sou tèt mòn Pisga. Lè l' rive la, li bati sèt lotèl. Epi li touye yon jenn ti towo bèf ak yon belye mouton sou chak lotèl pou Bondye.
And he took him [the] field of Zophim to [the] top of Pisgah and he built seven altars and he offered up a young bull and a ram on the altar.
15 Balaram di Balak konsa: -Rete kanpe bò kote ofrann ou mete boule sou lotèl yo. Mwen menm, mwen pral kontre ak Bondye pi devan.
And he said to Balak take your stand thus with burnt offering your and I I will meet thus.
16 Seyè a vin jwenn Balaram, li pale ak Balaram byen pale ankò, epi li di l': -Tounen al jwenn Balak. W'a pale avè l' jan mwen di ou la.
And he met Yahweh Balaam and he put a word in mouth his and he said return to Balak and thus you will speak.
17 Se konsa Balaram tounen bò kote Balak, li jwenn li kanpe bò ofrann boule yo ansanm ak tout chèf moun Moab yo. Epi Balak mande l': -Kisa Seyè a di konsa?
And he went to him and there he [was] standing with burnt offering his and [the] leaders of Moab [were] with him and he said to him Balak what? has he spoken Yahweh.
18 Epi Balaram pran chante chante sa a: -Souke kò ou, Balak! Vin tande! Pare zòrèy ou, pitit Zipò!
And he lifted up oracle his and he said arise O Balak and hear give ear! to me [O] son his Zippor.
19 Bondye pa tankou moun k'ap bay manti. Non! Li pa tankou moun k'ap chanje lide yo pou ti krik ti krak! Depi li pwomèt yon bagay, l'ap fè l'. Depi li pale, fòk sa li di a rive vre!
Not [is] a human God so he may lie and a son of humankind so he may change his mind ¿ he has he said and not will he act? and has he spoken? and not will he fulfill? it.
20 Yo ban m' lòd pou m' beni pèp Izrayèl la! Lè Bondye fin bay benediksyon l', nanpwen anyen mwen ka fè ankò.
Here! [surely] blessing I have received and he has blessed and not I will turn back it.
21 Mwen pa wè okenn malè pou moun Jakòb yo. Ni mwen pa wè okenn traka pou moun Izrayèl yo. Seyè a, Bondye yo a, l'a avèk yo. Yo tout kontan, y'ap fè konnen se li ki wa yo.
Not he has looked at disaster in Jacob and not he has seen trouble in Israel Yahweh God his [is] with him and a shout of a king [is] among him.
22 Paske, lè Bondye t'ap fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip la, li te ba yo fòs pou yo te goumen tankou towo mawon.
God [is] bringing out them from Egypt like [the] horns of a wild ox [belong] to him.
23 Pa gen wanga ki ka pran sou moun Jakòb yo. Pa gen maji ki ka fè moun Izrayèl yo anyen. Lè lè a va rive, y'a di moun Jakòb yo ak moun Izrayèl yo: Gade sa Seyè a fè pou nou!
For not enchantment [is] in Jacob and not divination [is] in Israel about this time it will be said of Jacob and of Israel what! has he done God.
24 Gade! Pèp Izrayèl la kanpe tankou yon manman lyon. Yo leve kanpe tankou yon mal lyon. Yo p'ap chita toutotan yo pa fin devore moun ki tonbe anba men yo, toutotan yo pa fin bwè san moun yo touye yo.
There! a people like a lion it rises and like a lion it lifts itself up not it will lie down until it will devour prey and [the] blood of [those] slain it will drink.
25 Lè sa a, Balak di Balaram konsa: -Menm jan ou pa vle ba yo madichon an, ou pa t' dwe asepte ba yo benediksyon non plis.
And he said Balak to Balaam neither at all not you will curse it nor at all not you will bless it.
26 Men, Balaram reponn Balak, li di l': -Mwen te tou pale ou wi. Mwen te di ou: Tou sa Seyè a va di m' fè, se sa m'ap fè.
And he answered Balaam and he said to Balak ¿ not did I speak to you saying all that he will speak Yahweh it I will do.
27 Balak di Balaram konsa: -Ann al non! Mwen pral mennen ou yon lòt kote. Ou pa janm konnen, antan ou la a, Bondye ka kite ou bay pèp la madichon pou mwen.
And he said Balak to Balaam come! please let me take you to a place another perhaps it will be pleasing in [the] eyes of God and you will curse it for me from there.
28 Balak mennen Balaram sou tèt mòn Peyò a. Antan yo la, yo dekouvri tout dezè a nan pye yo.
And he took Balak Balaam [the] top of Peor which looks down over [the] face of the desolate place.
29 Balaram di Balak konsa: -Bati sèt lotèl pou mwen isit la. Lèfini, fè m' jwenn sèt jenn ti towo bèf ak sèt belye mouton.
And he said Balaam to Balak build for me in this [place] seven altars and prepare for me in this [place] seven young bulls and seven rams.
30 Balak fè tou sa Balaram te di l' fè a, epi li touye yon ti towo bèf ak yon belye mouton sou chak lotèl pou Bondye.
And he did Balak just as he had said Balaam and he offered up a young bull and a ram on the altar.
