< 4 Mose 22 >

1 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za Jodani timofona kama zage hanati kaziga Moapu agupofi, Jeriko kumamofo kama kaziga emani'naze.
Awo abaana ba Isirayiri ne basitula, ne batambula ne basiisira mu lusenyi lwa Mowaabu ku mugga Yoludaani okwolekera Yeriko.
2 Hagi Balaki'a Zipori nemofokino Israeli vahe'mo'zama Amori vahe'ma maka'zama huzmantaza zana ke'ne.
Balaki mutabani wa Zipoli n’alaba byonna Isirayiri bye yali akoze Abamoli.
3 Hagi Moapu vahe'mo'za tusi koro hu'naze. Na'ankure Israeli vahera rama'a vahekrefa mani'nagu koro hu'naze.
Mowaabu n’atya nnyo kubanga abantu abo baali bangi nnyo. Mowaabu okutya abaana ba Isirayiri ne kumusukkirira.
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.
Awo Mowaabu n’agamba abakulembeze ba Midiyaani nti, “Ogubiina gw’abantu bano bajja kulya byonna bye tuli nabyo ebitwetoolodde ng’ente bw’erya n’esaanyaawo omuddo ogw’oku ttale.” Balaki mutabani wa Zipoli, eyali kabaka wa Mowaabu mu biseera ebyo,
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.
n’atuma ababaka eri Balamu mutabani wa Byoli, eyali mu Pesoli, ekiriraanye Omugga, mu nsi y’ewaabwe, okumuyita ng’amugamba nti, “Abantu bali wano, baavudde mu Misiri, basaanikidde ensi yonna we batudde; basiisidde wano okunninaana.
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.
Kale nno, nkusaba ojje onkolimirire abantu bano, kubanga bampitiridde amaanyi. Oboolyawo lwe ndisobola okubawangula ne mbagoba mu nsi yange. Kubanga mmanyi nga gw’okolimira akolimirwa, ne gw’osabira omukisa aweebwa omukisa.”
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.
Awo ababaka abaatumibwa, abaali abakulembeze ba Mowaabu n’abakulembeze ba Midiyaani, ne basitula nga batutte n’ensimbi ez’okumusasula. Bwe baatuuka eri Balamu ne bamutegeeza obubaka Balaki bwe yabatuma.
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.
Balamu n’abagamba nti, “Musule wano leero, nange nnaabatuusaako ekigambo Mukama ky’anaaba aŋŋambye.” Bwe batyo abakungu abaava mu Mowaabu ne basula ewa Balamu.
9 Hagi ana kenagera Anumzamo'a Balamunte eno anage hu'ne. Ama vahera iga vahe'mo'za kagranena emani'naze?
Katonda n’ajja eri Balamu n’amubuuza nti, “Bantu ki bano abali naawe?”
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.
Balamu n’addamu Katonda nti, “Balaki mutabani wa Zipoli, Kabaka wa Mowaabu ye yampeereza obubaka buno ng’agamba nti,
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.
‘Abantu abavudde mu Misiri basaanikidde ensi we batudde. Kale nno jjangu obankolimirire. Oboolyawo ekyo kiyinza okunsobozesa okubalwanyisa ne mbagoba mu nsi yange.’”
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.
Naye Katonda n’agamba Balamu nti, “Togenda na bantu abo. Abantu bali tekikugwanidde kubakolimira, kubanga baaweebwa omukisa.”
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.
Enkeera mu makya Balamu n’azuukuka, n’agamba abakungu abaatumibwa Balaki nti, “Muddeeyo mu nsi yammwe, kubanga Mukama Katonda aŋŋaanye okugenda nammwe.”
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.
Abakungu aba Mowaabu ne bakomawo eri Balaki ne bamugamba nti, “Balamu yagaanye okujja naffe.”
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.
Balaki ne yeeyongera okutuma abakungu abalala, nga baabitiibwa binene era nga bangi okusingako ku bali abaasooka.
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.
Ne bajja eri Balamu ne bamugamba nti, “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Balaki mutabani wa Zipoli nti, ‘Nkwegayiridde, tokkiriza kintu kyonna kukuziyiza kujja gye ndi;
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.
kubanga nzija kutumbula nnyo ekitiibwa kyo, era ŋŋenda kukukolera kyonna ky’ononsaba. Jjangu onkoliimiririre abantu bano.’”
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.
Naye Balamu n’addamu abo Balaki be yatuma nti, “Balaki ne bw’alimpa enju ye ng’ejjudde ffeeza ne zaabu sigenda kukola kinene oba kitono nga kisukka ku kiragiro kya Mukama Katonda wange.
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.
Kale nno musule wano olwa leero, nga bannammwe bwe baakola, nange mpulire Mukama Katonda ky’anaayongera okuŋŋamba.”
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.
Mu kiro ekyo Katonda n’ajja eri Balamu n’amugamba nti, “Obanga abantu abo bakuddukidde, genda nabo, naye okole ekyo kyokka kye nnaakulagira okukola.”
21 Hagi Balamu'a nanterana otino donki afu'a retrotra nehuno, kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'ane Moapu vu'ne.
Balamu n’agolokoka mu makya, n’ateeka amatandiiko ku ndogoyi ye, n’agenda n’abakungu ba Mowaabu.
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.
Naye Katonda n’asunguwala nnyo kubanga Balamu yagenda, malayika wa Mukama Katonda n’ayimirira mu kkubo okumuziyiza. Balamu yali yeebagadde endogoyi ye, abaweereza be babiri nabo baali naye.
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.
Endogoyi n’eraba malayika wa Mukama Katonda ng’ayimiridde mu kkubo, n’ekitala ekisowoddwa nga kiri mu mukono gwe; endogoyi n’ekyama n’eva mu kkubo n’eraga mu nnimiro. Balamu n’agikuba agizze mu kkubo.
24 Higeno tare waini hozamofo keginamo kanti kamati eri onasi hu'nea kankamunte, ana ankeromo'a oti'ne.
Malayika wa Mukama Katonda n’ayimirira mu kakubo akafunda akayita wakati w’ennimiro z’emizabbibu nga ziriko ekisenge ku buli luuyi.
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.
Endogoyi bwe yalaba malayika wa Mukama Katonda ne yeenyigiriza ku kisenge, n’ebetenterako ekigere kya Balamu. N’ayongera okugikuba.
26 Anantetira Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a atreno vuno keginagamo'ma ome ositfama higeno agaterenoma vuganti kamama osu'are umani hiza huno oti'ne.
Malayika wa Mukama Katonda ne yeeyongerayo mu maaso, n’ayimirira mu kakubo akafunda ennyo, awataali kabanga ka kwekyusizaamu kulaga ku mukono ogwa ddyo wadde ku gwa kkono.
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.
Endogoyi bwe yalaba malayika wa Mukama Katonda n’egalamira wansi, nga Balamu ye agituddeko; obusungu bwa Balamu ne bubuubuuka, n’akuba endogoyi n’omuggo gwe.
28 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a higeno ana donki afu'mofo Balamuna anage huno asami'ne, Na'a hugantogenka 3'a zupa nenahane?
Awo Mukama Katonda n’ayasamya akamwa k’endogoyi, n’egamba Balamu nti, “Nkukoze ki okunkuba emirundi gino gyonsatule?”
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.
Balamu n’agamba endogoyi nti, “Kubanga onfudde atategeera! Singa mbadde n’ekitala mu mukono gwange nandikuttiddewo kaakano.”
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.
Endogoyi n’egamba Balamu nti, “Siri ndogoyi yo gye weebagadde ebbanga lyonna n’okutuusa ku lunaku lwa leero? Ebadde mpisa yange okukukola bwe nti?” Balamu n’addamu nti, “Nedda.”
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.
Awo Mukama Katonda n’alyoka azibula amaaso ga Balamu, n’alaba malayika wa Mukama ng’ayimiridde wakati mu kkubo n’ekitala ekisowoddwa nga kiri mu mukono gwe. N’awunzika omutwe gwe, ne yeevuunika wansi n’avuunama.
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.
Malayika wa Mukama Katonda n’amugamba nti, “Lwaki endogoyi ogikubye emirundi egyo gyonsatule? Laba, nzize okukuziyiza kubanga ekkubo ly’okutte terinsanyusa.
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.
Endogoyi yandabye n’enneebalama emirundi egyo esatu. Singa teyanneebalamye, nandibadde ggwe nkusse, naye yo nga ngirese.”
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.
Balamu n’agamba malayika wa Mukama Katonda nti, “Nnyonoonye. Saategedde nti ggwe oyimiridde mu kkubo okunziyiza. Kale nno nga kye nkoze bwe kitakusanyusizza, ka nzireyo eka.”
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.
Malayika wa Mukama Katonda n’agamba Balamu nti, “Genda n’abasajja abo, naye ebigambo bye nnaakulagira bye byokka by’oba oyogera.” Bw’atyo Balamu n’agenda n’abakungu ba Balaki.
36 Balamu'a ne-e kema Balaki'ma nentahino'a, Arnoni mopamo ometretega Moapu kumate ome tutagiha hunte'naku vu'ne.
Balaki bwe yawulira nga Balamu ajja, n’afuluma okugenda okumusisinkana mu kibuga kya Mowaabu ekiri ku nsalo ya Alumoni, ku nkomerero y’amatwale ge.
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?
Balaki n’agamba Balamu nti, “Saakutumira nga nkuyita ojje ku bwange? Lwaki tewajja gye ndi? Olowooza siyinza kukuwa bitiibwa bingi?”
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.
Balamu n’addamu nti, “Nzuuno kaakano nzize gy’oli! Naye olowooza nnina obuyinza okwogera kyonna kye njagala? Nteekwa okwogera ebyo byokka Katonda by’anassa mu kamwa kange.”
39 Anante Balamu'a Balaki'ene vige'ne, Kiriat Huzoti kumate vu'na'e.
Bw’atyo Balamu n’agenda ne Balaki ne bajja e Kiriasikuzosi.
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.
Balaki n’awaayo ekiweebwayo eky’ente n’endiga, n’aweerezaako ne ku Balamu n’abakungu abaali naye.
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.
Enkeera Balaki n’atwala Balamu n’amulinnyisa ku bifo bya Bamosi Baali, n’asinziira awo okulengera ku kitundu eky’abantu ba Isirayiri abaali okumpi.
