Mitango 22
1 Bana ya Isalaele batambolaki mobembo na bitando ya Moabi mpe batongaki molako na bango pembeni-pembeni ya ebale Yordani, oyo ezalaki etalana na Jeriko.
Pea naʻe hiki atu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo nofo ʻi he toafa ʻo Moape ʻi he potu mai ʻo Sioatani[ʻo ofi ]ki Seliko.
2 Boye Balaki, mwana mobali ya Tsipori, ayokaki sango ya makambo nyonso oyo bana ya Isalaele basalaki bato ya Amori.
Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe Pelaki ko e foha ʻo Sipoa ʻae meʻa kotoa pē kuo fai ʻe ʻIsileli ki he kau ʻAmoli.
3 Mpe bato ya Moabi bakomaki kobanga makasi mpo ete bana ya Isalaele bazalaki ebele penza. Boye, bakomaki na somo mingi liboso ya bana ya Isalaele.
Pea naʻe manavahē lahi ʻa Moape ki he kakai, koeʻuhi naʻa nau tokolahi: pea naʻe mamahi lahi ʻa Moape koeʻuhi ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
4 Bongo bato ya Moabi balobaki na bakambi ya Madiani: « Ebele ya bato oyo bazali koya mpo na kobebisa biloko nyonso oyo ezingeli biso lokola ngombe oyo ezali kolia matiti ya elanga. » Na tango wana, ezalaki Balaki, mwana mobali ya Tsipori, nde azalaki mokonzi ya Moabi.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Moape ki he kau mātuʻa ʻo Mitiane, “Ko eni, ʻe ʻemo hake ʻe he kakai ni ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku takatakai ʻakitautolu, ʻo hangē ʻoku ʻemo hake ʻe he pulu ʻae mohuku ʻoe ngoue.” Pea ko Pelaki ko e foha ʻo Sipoa ko e tuʻi ia ʻoe kau Moape ʻi he kuonga ko ia.
5 Atindaki bantoma kobenga Balami, mwana mobali ya Beori, oyo azalaki kovanda na Petori, pembeni ya ebale Efrate, mboka oyo ye abotama. Balaki alobaki na Balami: — Bato moko bawuti kobima na Ejipito, batondisi mokili mobimba mpe bayei sik’oyo kovanda pembeni na ngai.
Ko ia naʻa ne fekau ai kia Pelami ko e foha ʻo Peoli ki Pitoli, ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki he vaitafe ʻoe fonua ʻoe fānau ʻa hono kakai, ke ui ia, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, kuo haʻu ha kakai mei ʻIsipite: vakai, ʻoku nau ʻufiʻufi ʻae funga fonua, pea ʻoku nau nofo ofi kiate au:
6 Nabondeli yo, yaka kolakela bango mabe, pamba te bazali makasi mingi koleka ngai, tango mosusu nakokoka kolonga bango mpe kobengana bango na mboka. Pamba te nayebi ete bato oyo opamboli, bapambolamaka; mpe ba-oyo olakeli mabe, balakelamaka mpe mabe.
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke haʻu ʻo fakamalaʻiaʻi maʻaku ʻae kakai ni, he ʻoku nau mālohi fau kiate au: pea te u vetekina nai, mo teʻia ʻakinautolu, pea te u kapusia ʻakinautolu ʻi he fonua ni: he ʻoku ou pehē, ʻoku monūʻia ia ʻoku ke fakamonūʻiaʻi, pea ʻoku malaʻia ia ʻoku ke fakamalaʻiaʻi.”
7 Bakambi ya Moabi mpe ya Madiani bakendeki mpe bamemaki makabo mpo na kopesa na Balami, momoni makambo. Tango bakomaki epai ya Balami, bayebisaki ye makambo oyo Balaki atindaki.
Pea ko e kau mātuʻa ʻo Moape mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo Mitiane naʻa nau ʻave ʻi honau nima ʻae totongi ʻo ʻene tukitala; pea naʻa nau haʻu kia Pelami, ʻo fakahā kiate ia ʻae lea ʻa Pelaki.
8 Balami alobaki na bango: — Bolekisa butu awa, mpe nakozongisela bino eyano oyo Yawe akopesa ngai. Boye bakambi ya Moabi bavandaki elongo na ye.
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Mou nofo ʻi heni ʻi he poōni, pea te u toe ʻomi ʻae lea kiate kimoutolu, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au:” pea naʻe nofo mo Pelami ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Moape.
9 Nzambe ayaki epai ya Balami mpe atunaki ye: — Bato oyo bazali epai na yo bazali banani?
Pea naʻe hāʻele mai ʻae ʻOtua kia Pelami, mo ne pehē, “Ko e hā ʻae kau tangata ni ʻoku ʻiate koe?”
10 Balami alobaki na Nzambe: — Balaki, mwana mobali ya Tsipori, mokonzi ya Moabi, atindeli ngai maloba oyo:
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelami ki he ʻOtua, “Ko Pelaki ko e foha ʻo Sipoa, ko e tuʻi ʻo Moape, kuo ne fekau mai kiate au, ʻo pehē,
11 « Bato moko bawuti kobima na Ejipito mpe batondisi mokili mobimba. Sik’oyo yaka mpe lakela bango mabe mpo na ngai. Tango mosusu nakokoka kobundisa bango mpe kobengana bango. »
‘Vakai kuo haʻu ha kakai mei ʻIsipite, ʻoku nau ʻufiʻufi ʻae funga fonua: ko ia ke ke haʻu ʻo fakamalaʻiaʻi maʻaku ʻakinautolu; pea te u mālohi ʻapē ʻiate kinautolu, pea kapusi atu ʻakinautolu.’”
12 Kasi Nzambe alobaki na Balami: — Kokende elongo na bango te. Okoki kolakela bato wana mabe te, pamba te bazali bato bapambolama.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kia Pelami, “ʻOua ʻaupito te ke ʻalu mo kinautolu; ʻe ʻikai te ke fakamalaʻiaʻi ʻae kakai: he ʻoku nau monūʻia.”
13 Na tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, Balami alamukaki mpe alobaki na bakambi ya Balaki: — Bozonga na mboka na bino, pamba te Yawe aboyi ete nakende elongo na bino.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Pelami ʻi he pongipongi, pea naʻa ne pehē ki he houʻeiki meia Pelaki, “Mou ō ki homou fonua: he kuo taʻofi au ʻe Sihova ke ʻoua naʻa tau ō mo kimoutolu.”
14 Boye, bakambi ya Moabi bazongaki epai ya Balaki mpe balobaki: — Balami aboyi koya elongo na biso.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Moape, ʻonau ō kia Pelaki, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Pelami, ʻe ʻikai te ne haʻu mo kimautolu.”
15 Balaki atindaki bakambi mosusu oyo bazalaki mingi mpe na lokumu koleka bakambi oyo atindaki liboso.
Pea naʻe toe fekau ʻe Pelaki ʻae houʻeiki kehe naʻe ongoongolelei mo tokolahi hake ʻiate kinautolu.
16 Bakomaki epai ya Balami mpe balobaki: — Tala liloba oyo Balaki, mwana ya mobali ya Tsipori alobi: « Tika ete eloko moko te epekisa yo koya epai na ngai!
Pea naʻa nau haʻu kia Pelami, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Pelaki ko e foha ʻo Sipoa, ‘ʻOku ou kole atu kiate koe, ʻoua naʻa toe ʻai ha meʻa ke taʻofi hoʻo haʻu kiate au:
17 Pamba te nakopesa yo lifuti ya malamu mpe nakosala nyonso oyo okoloba. Yaka penza mpe lakela bato oyo mabe mpo na ngai. »
He te u hiki hake ko e ke ke ongoongolelei lahi, pea te u fai ʻo hangē ko hoʻo lea mai kiate au: ko ia ke ke haʻu, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ʻo fakamalaʻiaʻi maʻaku ʻae kakai ni.’”
18 Kasi Balami azongiselaki bango: — Ezala soki Balaki apesi ngai palata mpe wolo oyo etondi na ndako na ye, nakokoka kosala eloko moko te ya monene to ya moke oyo ekokende libanda ya mibeko ya Yawe, Nzambe na ngai.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Pelami ki he kau talafekau ʻa Pelaki, “Kapau ʻe foaki ʻe Pelaki kiate au ʻa hono fale ʻoku pito ʻi he siliva mo e koula, ʻe ʻikai teu faʻa fakakeheʻi ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua, ke fai ʻo lahi hake pe siʻi hifo.
19 Bino mpe lisusu bolekisa butu awa ndenge bandeko na bino basalaki, mpo ete naluka koyeba lisusu likambo oyo Yawe akoyebisa na ngai.
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole atu kiate kimoutolu, mou nofo foki ʻi heni ʻi he poōni, koeʻuhi ke u ʻilo pe ko e hā ʻe toe folofola mai ʻe Sihova kiate au.”
20 Na butu wana, Nzambe ayaki epai na Balami mpe alobaki: — Lokola bato oyo bayei mpo na kobenga yo, kende elongo na bango. Kasi sala kaka makambo oyo nakoyebisa yo.
Pea naʻe hāʻele mai ʻae ʻOtua ʻi he pō kia Pelami, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Kapau ʻe haʻu ʻae kau tangata ke ui koe, tuʻu hake, ʻo ʻalu mo kinautolu; ka ko e lea te u lea ʻaki kiate koe, ko ia pe te ke fai.”
21 Na tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, Balami alamukaki, abongisaki ane na ye ya mwasi mpe akendeki elongo na bakambi ya Moabi.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Pelami ʻi he pongipongi, pe naʻa ne ʻai ʻae hekaʻanga ki heʻene ʻasi, pea ʻalu mo e houʻeiki ʻo Moape.
22 Kasi tango akendeki, Nzambe asilikaki makasi mpe anjelu ya Yawe atelemaki na nzela mpo na kokanga ye nzela tango azalaki kotambola likolo ya ane elongo na basali na ye mibale.
Pea naʻe tupu ʻae houhau ʻoe ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko ʻene ʻalu: pea naʻe tuʻu ʻi he hala ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova ko e tali tau kiate ia. Pea naʻe heka ia ʻi heʻene ʻasi, pea mo ʻene ongo tamaioʻeiki mo ia.
23 Tango ane emonaki anjelu ya Yawe atelema na kati-kati ya nzela na mopanga ya minu na loboko na ye, ane ebimaki na nzela mpe ekimaki na elanga. Boye, Balami abetaki ane mpo ete ekoka kozonga na nzela.
Pea naʻe mamata ʻae ʻasi ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova naʻe tuʻu ʻi he hala, pea mo ʻene heletā naʻe ʻi hono nima: pea naʻe afe atu ʻae ʻasi mei he hala, ʻo ʻalu ki he ngoue: pea naʻe taaʻi ʻe Pelami ʻae ʻasi, ke fakafoki ia ki he hala.
24 Mpe lisusu, anjelu ya Yawe akendeki kotelema na nzela moko ya moke, oyo elekela na kati-kati ya bilanga mibale ya vino, oyo mopanzi moko na moko na yango ezalaki lokola na bamir mibale.
Ka naʻe tuʻu ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, ʻi he hala ʻoe ngoue vaine, pea naʻe ai ʻae ʻā maka ʻi he potu toʻomataʻu, mo e potu toʻohema.
25 Tango ane emonaki anjelu ya Yawe, epusanaki pembeni ya mir, efinaki lokolo ya Balami na mir. Balami abetaki yango lisusu.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae ʻasi ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, naʻe ʻoho ia ki he ʻā maka, pea naʻe mamulu ʻae vaʻe ʻo Pelami ʻi he ʻā maka: pea naʻa ne toe taaʻi ia.
26 Anjelu ya Yawe alekaki liboso na bango mpe akendeki kotelema na esika moko ya moke penza, epai wapi nzela ya kobalukela na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali to ya mwasi ezali te.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, pea naʻe tuʻu ia ʻi he potu ʻapiʻapi, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻi ai ha hala ke afe ki he nima toʻomataʻu ki he toʻohema.
27 Tango ane emonaki anjelu ya Yawe, evandelaki Balami, nkolo na yango. Balami atombokaki makasi mpe akomaki kobamba ane lingenda na ye.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae ʻasi ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, naʻe tō ia ki lalo mo Pelami: pea naʻe tupu ai ʻae ʻita ʻa Pelami, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻae ʻasi ʻaki ʻae tokotoko.
28 Bongo, Yawe afungolaki monoko ya ane, mpe elobaki na Balami: — Likambo nini nasali yo mpo ete okoka kobeta ngai mbala misato?
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Sihova ʻae ngutu ʻoe ʻasi, pea ne pehē ʻe ia kia Pelami, “Ko e hā kuo u fai kiate koe, kuo ke taaʻi ai au ʻo liunga tolu?”
29 Balami azongiselaki ane: — Ozali kosakana na ngai! Soki nazalaki na mopanga na loboko na ngai, mbele nabomi yo kaka sik’oyo!
Pea pehē ʻe Pelami ki he ʻasi, “Koeʻuhi kuo ke manukiʻi au: ʻamusiaange ʻeau kuo ʻi hoku nima ha heletā, he ka ne ai te u tāmateʻi koe.”
30 Ane elobi na Balami: — Boni, nazali ane na yo te oyo osalelaka tango nyonso kino na mokolo ya lelo? Nazalaka solo na momesano ya kosalela yo makambo ya boye? Balami azongisaki: — Te!
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻasi kia Pelami, “ʻIkai ko hoʻo ʻasi au kuo ke heka ki ai talu hoʻo maʻu au ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni? He kuo u faʻa fai pehē ni kiate koe?” Pea ne pehē ʻe ia, “Naʻe ʻikai.”
31 Boye, Yawe afungolaki miso ya Balami, mpe Balami amonaki anjelu ya Yawe atelema na nzela, na mopanga na ye ya monene. Bongo, Balami afukamaki mpe akweyaki elongi kino na mabele.
Pea naʻe toki fakaʻā ʻe Sihova ʻae mata ʻo Pelami, pea naʻe mamata ia ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he hala, mo ʻene heletā kuo toʻo ʻi hono nima: pea naʻe punou ʻe ia hono ʻulu, pea foʻohifo ki hono mata.
32 Anjelu ya Yawe atunaki ye: — Mpo na nini obeti ane na yo mbala misato? Nayaki awa mpo na kokanga yo nzela, pamba te nzela na yo ezali mabe liboso na Ngai.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻāngelo kiate ia, “Ko e hā kuo ke taaʻi ai ʻa hoʻo ʻasi ni ʻo liunga tolu? Vakai ne u ʻalu atu ʻo taʻofi koe, koeʻuhi ʻoku kovi ho hala ʻi hoku ʻao:
33 Ane emonaki Ngai mpe ekimaki Ngai mbala misato. Soki ekimaki Ngai te, solo penza, nalingaki koboma yo, kasi nalingaki kotika yango na bomoi.
Pea naʻe mamata ʻae ʻasi kiate au, pea ne afe meiate au ʻo liunga tolu: ka ne ʻikai afe ia meiate au ko e moʻoni kuo u tāmateʻi foki koe, kae tuku ia ke moʻui.”
34 Balami alobaki na anjelu ya Yawe: — Nasali masumu. Nayebaki te ete otelemaki na nzela mpo na kokanga ngai nzela. Kasi soki osepeli na mobembo oyo te, nakozonga na ngai.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelami ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, “Kuo u angahala au; he naʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo naʻa ke tuʻu kiate au ʻi he hala: pea ko eni, kapau ʻoku kovi kiate koe, te u toe foki au.”
35 Anjelu ya Yawe alobaki na Balami: — Kende elongo na bato oyo kasi okoloba kaka makambo oyo nakoloba na yo. Boye, Balami akendeki elongo na bakambi ya Balaki.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova kia Pelami, “ʻAlu mo e kau tangata: ka ko e lea pe te u lea ʻaki kiate koe, ko ia pe te ke lea ʻaki.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Pelami mo e houʻeiki meia Pelaki.
36 Tango Balaki ayokaki sango ete Balami azali koya, akendeki kokutana na ye na engumba ya bato ya Moabi, oyo ezalaka na mondelo ya Arinoni, na suka ya mokili na ye.
Pea naʻe fanongo ʻa Pelaki kuo haʻu ʻa Pelami, pea naʻe ʻalu atu ia ʻo fakafetaulaki mo ia ki ha kolo ʻi Moape, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he matafonua ʻo ʻAlanoni, ʻi hono ngataʻanga mamaʻo atu.
37 Balaki alobaki na Balami: — Boni, natindaki te bato na lombangu mpo na kobenga yo? Mpo na nini oyaki epai na ngai te? Okanisaki ete nazangi makoki ya kofuta yo?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelaki kia Pelami, “ʻIkai naʻaku fekau mālohi kiate koe ʻo ui koe? Ka ko e hā naʻe ʻikai te ke haʻu ai kiate au? ʻIkai ʻoku ou mafai ke u hiki hake koe ke ke ongoongolelei?”
38 Balami azongiselaki Balaki: — Malamu, nayei sik’oyo epai na yo. Kasi nakoki solo koloba na yo kaka likambo moko? Nakoloba kaka makambo oyo Nzambe akotia na monoko na ngai.
Pea pehē ʻe Pelami kia Pelaki, “Vakai, kuo u haʻu kiate koe: pea ʻoku ai ha mālohi siʻi ʻiate au ke u lea ki ha meʻa? Ka ko e folofola ʻe tuku mai ʻe he ʻOtua ki hoku ngutu, ko ia pe te u lea ʻaki.”
39 Boye, Balami akendeki nzela moko na Balaki kino na Kiriati-Utsoti.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Pelami mo Pelaki, pea naʻa na hoko ki Kesa-Husoti.
40 Balaki abonzaki mbeka ya ngombe mpe ya meme, apesaki ndambo epai ya Balami mpe ndambo mosusu epai ya bakambi oyo bazalaki na ye elongo.
Pea naʻe feilaulau ʻaki ʻe Pelaki ʻae fanga pulu mo e sipi, ʻo ne tali kia Pelami, mo e houʻeiki naʻe ʻiate ia.
41 Na tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, Balaki amemaki Balami, mpe bamataki na Bamoti-Bala; mpe wuta kuna, bakokaki komona ndambo ya bana ya Isalaele.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he pongipongi hake, naʻe ʻave ʻe Pelaki ʻa Pelami, ʻo ʻomi ia ki he ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻo Peali, koeʻuhi ke ne mamata mei ai ki he ngataʻanga ʻoe kakai ʻi tuaʻā.
