Okubala 22
1 Awo abaana ba Isirayiri ne basitula, ne batambula ne basiisira mu lusenyi lwa Mowaabu ku mugga Yoludaani okwolekera Yeriko.
And thei yeden forth, and settiden tentis in the feeldi places of Moab, where Jerico is set ouer Jordan.
2 Balaki mutabani wa Zipoli n’alaba byonna Isirayiri bye yali akoze Abamoli.
Forsothe Balach, the sone of Sephor, siy alle thingis whiche Israel hadde do to Ammorrei,
3 Mowaabu n’atya nnyo kubanga abantu abo baali bangi nnyo. Mowaabu okutya abaana ba Isirayiri ne kumusukkirira.
and that men of Moab `hadden dred Israel, and miyten not bere the assailing of him.
4 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,
And he seide to the grettere men in birthe of Madian, So this puple schal do a wei alle men that dwellen in oure coostis, as an oxe is wont to do awei an eerbe `til to the rootis. Forsothe he, `that is, Balaac, was kyng in that tyme in Moab.
5 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.
Therfor he sente messangeris to Balaam, the sone of Beor, a fals diuynour, that dwellide on the flood of the lond of the sones of Amon, that thei schulden clepe hym, and schulden seie, Lo! a puple yede out of Egipt, `which puple hilide the face of erthe, and sittith ayens me.
6 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.”
Therfor come thou, and curse this puple, which is strongere than Y, if in ony maner Y may smyte and dryue hym out of my lond; for Y knowe, that he is blissid whom thou blissist, and he is cursid whom thou hast cursid.
7 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.
The eldere men of Moab and the grettere men in birthe of Madian yeden forth, hauynge in hondis the prijs of fals dyuynyng; and whanne thei hadden come to Balaam, and hadden teld to hym alle the wordis of Balaach, he answeride,
8 Balamu n’abagamba nti, “Musule wano leero, nange nnaabatuusaako ekigambo Mukama ky’anaaba aŋŋambye.” Bwe batyo abakungu abaava mu Mowaabu ne basula ewa Balamu.
Dwelle ye here to nyyt, and Y schal answere what euer thing the Lord schal seie to me. Sotheli while thei dwelliden at Balaam, God cam, and seide to hym,
9 Katonda n’ajja eri Balamu n’amubuuza nti, “Bantu ki bano abali naawe?”
What wolen these men at thee `to hem silf?
10 Balamu n’addamu Katonda nti, “Balaki mutabani wa Zipoli, Kabaka wa Mowaabu ye yampeereza obubaka buno ng’agamba nti,
Balaam answeride, Balaach, the sone of Sephor, kyng of Moabitis, sente to me, and seide, Lo!
11 ‘Abantu abavudde mu Misiri basaanikidde ensi we batudde. Kale nno jjangu obankolimirire. Oboolyawo ekyo kiyinza okunsobozesa okubalwanyisa ne mbagoba mu nsi yange.’”
a puple which is gon out of Egipt hilide the face of erthe; come thou, and curse hem, if in ony maner Y may fiyte, and dryue hym awey.
12 Naye Katonda n’agamba Balamu nti, “Togenda na bantu abo. Abantu bali tekikugwanidde kubakolimira, kubanga baaweebwa omukisa.”
And God seide to Balaam, Nyle thou go with hem, nether curse thou the puple, for it is blessid.
13 Enkeera mu makya Balamu n’azuukuka, n’agamba abakungu abaatumibwa Balaki nti, “Muddeeyo mu nsi yammwe, kubanga Mukama Katonda aŋŋaanye okugenda nammwe.”
Which Balaam roos eerli, and seide to the princes, Go ye in to youre lond, for God forbeed me to come with you.
14 Abakungu aba Mowaabu ne bakomawo eri Balaki ne bamugamba nti, “Balamu yagaanye okujja naffe.”
The princes turneden ayen, and seiden to Balaach, Balaam nolde come with vs.
15 Balaki ne yeeyongera okutuma abakungu abalala, nga baabitiibwa binene era nga bangi okusingako ku bali abaasooka.
Eft Balaach sente many mo and noblere men, than he hadde sent bifore;
16 Ne bajja eri Balamu ne bamugamba nti, “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Balaki mutabani wa Zipoli nti, ‘Nkwegayiridde, tokkiriza kintu kyonna kukuziyiza kujja gye ndi;
whiche seiden, whanne thei hadden come to Balaam, Balaach, the sone of Sephor, seith thus, Tarye thou not to come to me, redi to onoure thee;
17 kubanga nzija kutumbula nnyo ekitiibwa kyo, era ŋŋenda kukukolera kyonna ky’ononsaba. Jjangu onkoliimiririre abantu bano.’”
and what euer thing thou wolt, Y schal yyue to thee; come thou, and curse this puple.
18 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.
Balaam answeride, Thouy Balaach schal yyue to me his howsful of siluer and of gold, Y schal not mowe chaunge the word of my God, that Y speke ethir more ethir lesse.
19 Kale nno musule wano olwa leero, nga bannammwe bwe baakola, nange mpulire Mukama Katonda ky’anaayongera okuŋŋamba.”
Y biseche, that ye dwelle here also in this nyyt, that Y may wite what the Lord schal answere eft to me.
20 Mu kiro ekyo Katonda n’ajja eri Balamu n’amugamba nti, “Obanga abantu abo bakuddukidde, genda nabo, naye okole ekyo kyokka kye nnaakulagira okukola.”
Therfor the Lord cam to Balaam in the nyyt, and seide to hym, If these men comen to clepe thee, rise thou, and go with hem, so oneli that thou do that that Y schal comaunde to thee.
21 Balamu n’agolokoka mu makya, n’ateeka amatandiiko ku ndogoyi ye, n’agenda n’abakungu ba Mowaabu.
Balaam roos eerli, and whanne his femal asse was sadelid, he yede forth with hem.
22 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.
And God was wrooth. And the `aungel of the Lord stood in the weie ayens Balam, that sat on the femal asse, and hadde twei children with hym.
23 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.
The femal asse siy the aungel stondynge in the weie, with swerd drawun, and `turnede a wei hir silf fro the weie, and yede bi the feeld. And whanne Balaam beet hir, and wolde lede ayen to the path,
24 Malayika wa Mukama Katonda n’ayimirira mu kakubo akafunda akayita wakati w’ennimiro z’emizabbibu nga ziriko ekisenge ku buli luuyi.
the aungel stood in the streitnessis of twei wallis, with whiche the vyneris weren cumpassid.
25 Endogoyi bwe yalaba malayika wa Mukama Katonda ne yeenyigiriza ku kisenge, n’ebetenterako ekigere kya Balamu. N’ayongera okugikuba.
And the femal asse siy the aungel, and ioynede hir silf to the wal, and hurtlide the foot of the sittere; and he beet eft `the asse.
26 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.
And neuer the lesse the aungel yede to the streit place, where me `myyte not go out of the weie, nether to the riyt side nether to the left side, and stood ayens hym.
27 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.
And whanne the femal asse siy the aungel stondynge, sche felde doun vndir the feet of the sittere, which was wrooth ful greetli, and beet hir sidis with a staaf.
28 Awo Mukama Katonda n’ayasamya akamwa k’endogoyi, n’egamba Balamu nti, “Nkukoze ki okunkuba emirundi gino gyonsatule?”
And the Lord openyde the `mouth of the femal asse, and sche spak, What have Y doon to thee? whi smytist thou me, lo! now the thridde tyme?
29 Balamu n’agamba endogoyi nti, “Kubanga onfudde atategeera! Singa mbadde n’ekitala mu mukono gwange nandikuttiddewo kaakano.”
Balaam answeride, For thou hast disserued, and hast scornyd me; Y wolde that Y hadde a swerd to sle thee.
30 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.”
And the femal asse seide, Whether Y am not thi beeste on which thou were wont to sitte euere til in to this present dai? seie thou, what lijk thing Y dide euere to thee? And he seide, Neuere.
31 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.
Anoon the Lord openyde `the iyen of Balaam, and he siy the aungel stondynge in the weie, holdynge a drawun swerd in the hoond; and Balaam worschipide hym lowli in to erthe.
32 Malayika wa Mukama Katonda n’amugamba nti, “Lwaki endogoyi ogikubye emirundi egyo gyonsatule? Laba, nzize okukuziyiza kubanga ekkubo ly’okutte terinsanyusa.
To whom the aungel seide, Whi `betist thou thi femal asse `the thridde tyme? Y cam to be aduersarie to thee, for thi weie is weiward, and contrarye to me;
33 Endogoyi yandabye n’enneebalama emirundi egyo esatu. Singa teyanneebalamye, nandibadde ggwe nkusse, naye yo nga ngirese.”
and if the femal asse hadde not bowid a wey fro the weie, and youe place to ayenstondere, Y hadde slayn thee, and sche schulde lyue.
34 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.”
Balaam seide, Y synnede, not witynge that thou stodist ayens me; and now, if it displesith thee that Y go, Y schal turne ayen.
35 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.
The aungel seide, Go thou with these men, but be war that thou speke not other thing than Y schal comaunde to thee. Therfor Balaam yede with the princes.
36 Balaki bwe yawulira nga Balamu ajja, n’afuluma okugenda okumusisinkana mu kibuga kya Mowaabu ekiri ku nsalo ya Alumoni, ku nkomerero y’amatwale ge.
And whanne Balaach hadde herde this, he yede out in to the comyng of hym, in the citee of Moabitis, whiche is set in the laste coostis of Arnon.
37 Balaki n’agamba Balamu nti, “Saakutumira nga nkuyita ojje ku bwange? Lwaki tewajja gye ndi? Olowooza siyinza kukuwa bitiibwa bingi?”
And he seide to Balaam, Y sente messangeris to clepe thee; whi camest thou not anoon to me? whethir for Y may not yelde meede to thi comyng?
38 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.”
To whom Balaam answeride, Lo! Y am present, whethir Y schal mow speke other thing than that, that God schal putte in my mouth?
39 Bw’atyo Balamu n’agenda ne Balaki ne bajja e Kiriasikuzosi.
Therfor thei yeden forth to gidere, and camen in to a citee, which was in the laste coost of `his rewme.
40 Balaki n’awaayo ekiweebwayo eky’ente n’endiga, n’aweerezaako ne ku Balamu n’abakungu abaali naye.
And whanne Balaach hadde slayn scheep and oxun, he sente yiftis to Balaam and the princes that weren with hym.
41 Enkeera Balaki n’atwala Balamu n’amulinnyisa ku bifo bya Bamosi Baali, n’asinziira awo okulengera ku kitundu eky’abantu ba Isirayiri abaali okumpi.
Forsothe whanne the morewtid was maad, Balaach ledde Balaam to the hiye placis of Baal, and he bihelde the laste part of the puple, `that is, al the oost til to the laste part.
