4 Mose 22
1 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za Jodani timofona kama zage hanati kaziga Moapu agupofi, Jeriko kumamofo kama kaziga emani'naze.
And they set out and made camp in the plains of Moab, across the Jordan, where Jericho is situated.
2 Hagi Balaki'a Zipori nemofokino Israeli vahe'mo'zama Amori vahe'ma maka'zama huzmantaza zana ke'ne.
Then Balak, the son of Zippor, seeing all that Israel had done to the Amorite,
3 Hagi Moapu vahe'mo'za tusi koro hu'naze. Na'ankure Israeli vahera rama'a vahekrefa mani'nagu koro hu'naze.
and that the Moabites had great fear of him, and that they were not able to bear his assault,
4 Hagi Moapu vahe'mo'za Midieni ranra vahera zamasami'za, ama tusi'a vahe krefamo'za bulimakaomo traza neno revrino neankna hu'za mika zantia eri havizahaze. Hagi ana knafina Zipori nemofo Balaki'a Moapu vahe kinia mani'nea knafi anara hu'naze.
said to those greater by birth of Midian: “So will this people wipe away all those who are dwelling within our borders, in the same way that the ox is accustomed to tear out grass, all the way to the roots.” At that time, he was king of Moab.
5 Hagi agri vahepi Pethor Beori kumara Yufretis rantimofo kantu kaziga me'nea kumatega, Balaki'a Beori nomofo Balamuntega kea atrenteno anage hu'ne, ko, Isipitima e'naza vahe'mo'za mopani'afina emani avite'naze.
Therefore, he sent messengers to Balaam, the son of Beor, a seer who lived above the river of the land of the sons of Ammon, to call him, and to say: “Behold, a people has gone forth from Egypt, which has covered the face of the earth. They are encamped opposite me.
6 E'ina hu'negu menina zamagra tagrira tagatere'za hanaveti'za tusi'a vahe mani'nazanki, eme naza hunka kazusi ke huzmantegeta, tagra zamarotago hamnena freho. Nagra antahi'noe, izano sifanama ahentamo'a haviza nehigeno, asomu kema huntamo'a, asomu e'nerimoka mani'nane.
Therefore, come and curse this people, for they are stronger than I am. If only, in some way, I might be able to strike them and to drive them from my land. For I know that he whom you bless shall be blessed, and he whom you curse shall be cursed.”
7 Hagi Moapu kva vahe'ene Midiani kva vahe'mo'za Balamuma miza sentesaza zagoa eri'za vu'naze. Hagi Balamuma eme nege'za Balaki'ma hu'nea nanekea asami'naze.
And the elders of Moab, and those greater by birth of Midian, continued on, holding the price of divination in their hands. And when they had come to Balaam, and had explained to him all the words of Balak,
8 Hagi Balamu'a ana vahera anage huno zamasami'ne, meni kenagera mase'nenkena ana kemofo nona'a, Ra Anumzamo'ma nasami'nia nanekea oki'na tamasami'neno, hige'za ana ranra vahe'mo'za ana kenagera agrane mase'naze.
he responded, “Remain for this night, and I will answer with whatever the Lord will say to me.” And while they stayed with Balaam, God came and said to him,
9 Hagi ana kenagera Anumzamo'a Balamunte eno anage hu'ne. Ama vahera iga vahe'mo'za kagranena emani'naze?
“What do these men want with you?”
10 Balamu'a Anumzamofona anage huno asami'ne, Balaki'a Zipori nemofo Moapu kini ne'mo ama vahera huzamantege'za nagritega ke eri'za e'naza vahe mani'naze.
He responded, “Balak, the son of Zippor, the king of the Moabites has sent to me,
11 Hagi zamagra anage hu'za nasami'naze, Isipiti'ma e'naza vahe'mo'za mopa mani avite'nazanki enka nagri kaziga eme antenka kazusi huzmantegeta ha'huzamanteta zamahe natitramnena atre'za freho hu'naze.
saying: ‘Behold, a people, which has gone forth from Egypt, has covered the face of the earth. Come and curse them, so that, in some way, I may be able to fight them and drive them away.’”
12 Hianagi Anumzamo'a Balamuna anage huno asami'ne, Zamagranena ovuo. Hagi e'i ana vahe'enena vunka Israeli vahera kazusi kea ome huo zmantegahane. Na'ankure nagra Israeli vahera asomu ke huzamante'noe.
And God said to Balaam, “Do not go with them, and do not curse the people, for they are blessed.”
13 Hagi nanterana Balamu'a otino Balakima huzmantege'za e'naza kva vahera anage huno zamasami'ne, tamagrake kumatamirega viho. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a ovugahane huno hianki'na tamagranena ovugahue.
And he, rising up in the morning, said to the leaders, “Go into your own land, for the Lord has prohibited me from going with you.”
14 Anage higeno Moapu kini ne' Balaki'ma huzmantege'za e'naza kva vahe'mo'za ete vu'za Balamu'ma omegahuema hia nanekea Balakina ome asmi'naze.
Returning, the leaders said to Balak, “Balaam was not willing to come with us.”
15 Hagi Balaki'a mago'ene kote'ma huzamantege'za vu'naza ranra vahe'ma zmagatere'nea ranra vahetami rama'a huzmantage'za ete vu'naze.
Again, he sent many more persons, and these were more noble than those he had sent before.
16 Ete Balamunte e'za, amanage hu'za asmi'naze, Zipori nemofo Balaki'a anage huno hurantegeta one, muse hugantoanki nagritegama enoma huana atregeno mago'zamo'a kazerionte'na amne eno.
And when these had come to Balaam, they said: “So says Balak, the son of Zippor. Do not hesitate to come to me.
17 Na'ankure knare hu'na rama'a fenoza mizana negami'na, na'ankuro hananana amane hugantegahue. Hagi enka ama Israeli vahera kazusi kea eme huzamanto huno hu'ne.
For I am ready to honor you, and whatever you would want, I shall give to you. Come and curse this people.”
18 Hianagi Balamu'a Balaki eri'za vahe'mokizmi kenona zamirera anage hu'ne, Silvane golinena avite'nenia noma'a Balaki'a amne namigahianagi, nagra Ra Anumzanimofona agatere'na razano osi'zano osugahue.
Balaam responded: “Even if Balak were to give to me his own house, filled with silver and gold, I still would not be able to change the word of the Lord my God, neither to say more, nor to say less.
19 E'ina hu'negu muse huramantoanki kote'ma e'naza vahe'mo'za hu'nazaza huta meni kenagera nagrane mase'nenkena Ra Anumzamo'a na'ane hugahifi antahiteno.
I beg you to remain for this night also, so that I may know what the Lord will answer me again.”
20 Hagi ana kenage Ra Anumzamo'a Balamunte eno amanage huno asmi'ne, Ana kva vahe'mo'zama kagri'ma kema hunaku esagenka, otinka zamagrane vugahananagi, Nagrama hanua ke'age zmasamigahane.
Therefore, God came to Balaam in the night, and said to him: “If these men have arrived to call you, then rise up and go with them; yet only in so far as you shall do what I will command you.”
21 Hagi Balamu'a nanterana otino donki afu'a retrotra nehuno, kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'ane Moapu vu'ne.
Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddling his donkey, he set out with them.
22 Hianagi Balamu'ma ana vahe'enema viazanku Ra Anumzamo'a rimpa ahentegeno, Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a ha'hunte'naku kampi eme oti'ne. Agra donki afu'amofo agumpi manino nevigeno, tare eri'za netremokea agrane vu'na'e.
And God was angry. And an Angel of the Lord stood in the way opposite Balaam, who was sitting on the donkey, and he had two servants with him.
23 Hagi Balamu donki afu'mo'ma Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'ma azampi bainati kazinknoma eri'neno otinegeno ome negeno'a, ana donki afu'mo'a kana atreno trampi evu'ne. Hianagi ana donki afu'a kante evinogu Balamu'a ruharakimi'ne.
The donkey, discerning that the Angel was standing in the way with a drawn sword, turned herself from the road and went through a field. And when Balaam beat her and intended to return her to the path,
24 Higeno tare waini hozamofo keginamo kanti kamati eri onasi hu'nea kankamunte, ana ankeromo'a oti'ne.
the Angel stood in a narrow place between the two walls, with which the vineyards were enclosed.
25 Hagi donki afumo'ma Ra Anumzamofo ankeroma negeno'a, keginare Balamu agia eme runkasisino evigeno ete mago'ane Balamu'a ana donki afura ahe'ne.
And the donkey, seeing this, drew herself close to the wall and scraped the foot of the rider. So he beat her again.
26 Anantetira Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a atreno vuno keginagamo'ma ome ositfama higeno agaterenoma vuganti kamama osu'are umani hiza huno oti'ne.
And, nevertheless, the Angel passing on to a narrow place, where one would not be able to deviate either to the right or to the left, stood to meet him.
27 Hagi donki afumo'ma Ra Anumzamofo ankeroma anante eme negeno'a, mopafi renareno emanigeno, Balamu'a rimpa ahegeno ana donki afura azompa'areti ahe'ne.
And when the donkey had seen the Angel standing there, she fell under the feet of the rider, who, being angry, struck her sides more vehemently with a club.
28 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a higeno ana donki afu'mofo Balamuna anage huno asami'ne, Na'a hugantogenka 3'a zupa nenahane?
And the Lord opened the mouth of the donkey, and she said: “What have I done to you? Why do strike you me, behold now, for the third time?”
29 Higeno Balamu'a ana donki afu'mofo kenona anage huno asmi'ne, Kagra nagrira nazeri neginagi vahe kna hu'nananki'na nazampima kazinknoma eri'noresina kagrira meni kahe frusine.
Balaam responded, “Because you have deserved it, and you have mistreated me. If only I had a sword, so that I might pierce you.”
30 Hagi ana donkimo'a ana kemofo nona'a anage huno asami'ne, kagra nagumpima maninke'na kora kavre'na vano osu'nofi? Kora amanahu navu'navara hugante'noaza hunegantofi? Huno higeno, i'o kora e'inahu'zana osu'nanaza nehane.
The donkey said: “Am not I your animal, on which you have always been accustomed to sit, even until this present day? Tell me, when did I ever do the same thing to you.” But he said, “Never.”
31 Hagi anante Ra Anumzamo'a Balamuna avurga eri hari higeno, Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'ma azampi kazinknoma eri'neno oti'nea zana negeno, mopafi avugosaregati kepri hu'ne.
Immediately, the Lord opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the Angel standing in the way with a drawn sword, and he reverenced him prone on the ground.
32 Hagi Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a Balamuna anage huno asami'ne, Nahigenka 3'a zupa donki afuka'a amasagi'nane? Nagra ha'hugante'naku e'noe. Na'ankure kagrama nevana kamo'a, Nagri navurera knarera nosie.
And the Angel said to him: “Why did you beat your donkey three times? I have come to be an adversary to you, because your way is perverse and contrary to me.
33 Hagi donki afumo'a 3'a zupa nageno rukagese'ne. Hagi anara osiresina nagra ko kagrira kahe nefri'na, ama ana donki afura ohe'na atrogeno manisine.
And unless the donkey had turned aside from the way, allowing a place for my opposition, I would have killed you, and she would have lived.”
34 Anante Balamu'a Ra Anumzamofo ankeronkura huno, Nagra kumi hu'noe. Kampina ha hunantenaku mani'nane hu'na nagra kena antahi'na osu'noe. Hagi menina kagrama musema osnanke'na, nagra ete rukrahe hu'na kumanirega vugahue.
Balaam said: “I have sinned, not knowing that you stood against me. And now, if it displeases you for me to continue on, I will return.”
35 Hagi Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a anage huno asmi'ne, Ama ana venenezagane vugahananagi, nagrama kasamisua nanekege ome hugahane. Higeno Balakima huzmantege'za e'naza vahe'ene Balamu'a vu'ne.
The Angel said, “Go with them, but be careful not to speak anything other than what I shall instruct you.” And so, he went with the leaders.
36 Balamu'a ne-e kema Balaki'ma nentahino'a, Arnoni mopamo ometretega Moapu kumate ome tutagiha hunte'naku vu'ne.
And when Balak had heard it, he went out to meet him in a town of the Moabites, which is situated at the furthest borders of Arnon.
37 Hagi Balaki'a amanage huno Balamuna antahige'ne, antahio, ame hunka enogu'ma kema hu'noana nahigenka ome'nane? Kagesama antahinana nagrikura mizana seonantegahie hu'nampi?
And he said to Balaam: “I sent messengers to call you. Why did you not come to me immediately? Was it because I am not able to pay the cost for your arrival?”
38 Higeno Balamu'a kenona huno, hago kagritega menina e'noanki natrenanke'na osia kegaga hugahufi? Hagi nagra nagesafintira mago nanekea osugahuanki, Anumzamo'ma huo huno'ma hania naneke'age hugahue.
He answered him: “Behold, here I am. Am I able to speak anything other than what God will put into my mouth?”
39 Anante Balamu'a Balaki'ene vige'ne, Kiriat Huzoti kumate vu'na'e.
Therefore, they continued on together, and they arrived at a city, which was at the furthest borders of his kingdom.
40 Hagi anante Balaki'a bulimakao afu'ene sipisipi afura aheno kresramna nevuno, ke'ma huzmantege'za vute'za e'naza vahe'ene Balamunena zami'ne.
And after Balak had killed oxen and sheep, he sent the gifts to Balaam, and to the leaders who were with him.
41 Hagi anante nanterana Balaki'a Balamuna avreno Bamot-Ba-al kumate mrerino mago'a Israeli vahe'ma nemanizama'a ome averi higeno, ke henkamuteno ke'ne.
Then, when morning arrived, he led him to the heights of Baal, and he gazed upon the most distant portions of the population.
