1 Balamu n’agamba Balaki nti, “Nkolera wano ebyoto musanvu, era onfunire ne sseddume z’ente musanvu, n’endiga ennume musanvu.”
Balaam nowacho niya, “Gerna kende abiriyo mag misango ka, kendo ikna rwedhi abiriyo kod imbe abiriyo.”
2 Balaki n’akola nga Balamu bwe yamugamba; bombi Balaki ne Balamu ne bawaayo ente emu n’endiga ennume emu ku buli kyoto.
Balak notimo kaka Balaam nowacho, kendo negichiwo rwath gi im ewi kendo ka kendo mar misango.
3 Balamu n’agamba Balaki nti, “Beera wano awali ekiweebwayo kyo nze njire nga nzirako wabbali. Oboolyawo nga Mukama anajja n’ansisinkana. Buli kyonna ky’anambikkulira nnaakikutegeeza.” N’alaga waggulu ku lusozi awatali bimera.
Eka Balaam nowacho ne Balak niya, “Bed but misango ka, ka an to alengʼora e bathe ka; nimar sa moro dipo ka Jehova Nyasaye ofwenyorena. Gimoro amora monyisa to abiro nyisi.” Eka nowuok modhi kama otingʼore gi malo motwo.
4 Katonda n’asisinkana Balamu; Balamu n’amugamba nti, “Nteeseteese ebyoto musanvu, era ku buli kyoto mpeereddeko ente ya sseddume emu n’endiga ennume emu.”
Nyasaye nofwenyore ne Balaam kendo Balaam nowachone niya, “Aseloso kende abiriyo mag misango, kendo ewi kendo ka kendo asechiwe misango mar rwath kod im.”
5 Mukama Katonda n’assa ebigambo mu kamwa ka Balamu n’amugamba nti, “Ddayo eri Balaki omutuuseeko obubaka buno.”
Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo Balaam ote kowachone niya, “Dog ir Balak kendo imiye wachni.”
6 N’addayo gye yali, n’amusanga ng’ayimiridde awali ekiweebwayo kye, n’abakungu bonna aba Mowaabu.
Omiyo nodok moyudo Balak kochungʼ but misango mane osechiwo ka en gi jodong Moab duto.
7 Balamu n’alagula nti, “Balaki ye yanzigya mu Alamu, kabaka wa Mowaabu yanzigya mu nsozi z’ebuvanjuba. N’aŋŋamba nti, ‘Jjangu onkolimiririre Yakobo; jjangu oboole Isirayiri.’
Eka Balaam nohulo ote moa kuom Nyasaye kama: “Balak ruodh Moab manie piny gode man yo wuok chiengʼ nooma Aram. Nowacho ni, ‘Bi mondo ikwongʼna Jakobo; bi mondo ikwedna jo-Israel.’
8 Nnyinza okukolimira abo Katonda batakolimidde? Nnyinza okuboola abo Mukama Katonda baatabodde?
Ere kaka anyalo kwongʼo joma Nyasaye pok okwongʼo? Ere kaka anyalo kwedo joma Jehova Nyasaye pok okwedo?
9 Mbalaba okuva ku ntikko ez’enjazi mbalengera nga nsinziira ku nsozi. Ndaba abantu abeeyawuddeko abateerowooza kuba ng’erimu ku mawanga.
Anenogi ka achungʼ ewi kite mabeyo; kendo arangogi gi ewi gode. Aneno oganda modak kar kendgi ma ok oseriwore gi ogendini mamoko.
10 Ani ayinza okubala enfuufu ya Yakobo, oba okubala ekitundu ekyokuna ekya Isirayiri? Leka nfe okufa okw’omutuukirivu, n’enkomerero yange ebeere ng’eyaabwe!”
Ere ngʼama nyalo kwano kar romb oganda joka Jakobo machalo gi buru kata ngʼama nyalo kwano migawo mar angʼwen mar Israel? Weuru atho kaka joma kare tho, kendo mad giko mara ochal kod margi!”
11 Balaki n’agamba Balamu nti, “Onkoze ki kino? Nakuyita kujja kukolimira balabe bange, naye obw’edda bwonna obadde obasabira mukisa!”
Balak nopenjo Balaam niya, “En angʼo ma isetimona? Ne aomi mondo ikwongʼ wasika, to onge gima isetimo makmana gwedhogi!”
12 N’addamu nti, “Tekiŋŋwanidde kwogera ekyo Mukama Katonda ky’atadde mu kamwa kange?”
Nodwoke niya, “Ok anyal wacho gima Jehova Nyasaye ne ok onyisa?”
13 Balaki n’amugamba nti, “Jjangu tugende mu kifo ekirala w’onoolabira abaana ba Isirayiri; ojja kulabako kitundu butundu so si bonna. Kale nno sinziira awo obankolimiririre.”
Eka Balak nowachone niya, “Bi wadhi kamoro machielo kama inyalo nenogie; ibiro mana neno moko kuomgi to ok giduto. To ka isenenogi, to ikwongʼnagi.”
14 N’amutwala mu nnimiro ya Zofimu, ku ntikko ya Pisuga, n’azimbira eyo ebyoto musanvu n’awaayo sseddume w’ente emu n’endiga ennume emu ku buli kyoto.
Omiyo notere e pap mar Zofim mantiere ewi Got Pisga, kendo kanyo nogero kende mag misango abiriyo mi nochiwo misango mar rwath kod im ewi kendo ka kendo.
15 Balamu n’agamba Balaki nti, “Beera wano awali ebiweebwayo byo, nze ŋŋende musisinkane wali.”
Balaam nowacho ne Balak niya, “Bed but misangoni ka, ka anto adhi romo gi Nyasaye bathe kocha.”
16 Mukama Katonda n’asisinkana Balamu, n’ateeka obubaka mu kamwa ke, ng’agamba nti, “Ddayo eri Balaki omuwe obubaka obwo.”
Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyore ne Balaam kendo nomiyo Balaam ote kowachone niya, “Dog ir Balak kendo imiye wachni.”
17 N’addayo gy’ali n’amusanga ng’ayimiridde awali ekiweebwayo, ng’ali n’abakungu ba Mowaabu. Balaki n’amubuuza nti, “Mukama Katonda agambye ki?”
Omiyo nodok moyudo Balak kochungʼ but misangone, ka en-gi jodong Moab. Balak nopenje niya, “Angʼo mane Jehova Nyasaye owacho?”
18 Bw’atyo n’alagula nti, “Golokoka, Balaki, owulirize; mpulira, mutabani wa Zipoli.
Eka Balaam nohulo ote moa kuom Nyasaye kama: Aa malo, Balak, kendo ichik iti; winja, wuod Zipor.
19 Katonda si muntu, nti ayinza okulimba, oba nti mwana wa bantu nti akyusakyusa ebigambo bye. Ayogera n’atakola? Asuubiza n’atatuukiriza?
Nyasaye ok en dhano, mondo omi oriambi, kata ok en wuod dhano, mondo omi olok pache. Bende onyalo wuoyo to ok otim kaka owacho? Bende onyalo chiwo singo, to ok ochop singruokno?
20 Mpeereddwa ekiragiro okusaba omukisa; agabye omukisa, era siyinza kukikyusa.
Ne ayudo chik mondo achiw gweth; osegwedhogi, kendo ok anyal loko mano.
21 “Tewali kibi kirabiddwa mu Yakobo, tewali kubonaabona kulabise mu Isirayiri. Mukama Katonda waabwe ali nabo; eddoboozi lya kabaka ery’omwanguka liri wakati mu bo.
“Onge kido magalagala moyud kuom Jakobo, kata tim moro marach moyud kuom Israel. Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi ni kodgi; teko mar Ruoth ni kodgi.
22 Katonda ye yabaggya mu Misiri, balina amaanyi ng’aga sseddume ey’omu nsiko.
Nyasaye nogologi Misri; tekogi chalo gi teko jowi.
23 Tewali bulogo ku Yakobo, tewali bulaguzi ku Isirayiri. Kiryogerwako ku Yakobo ne ku Isirayiri nti, ‘Mulabe Katonda ky’akoze!’
Onge tim jwok manyalo mako joka Jakobo, kendo timbe ndagla ok nyal mako Israel. Ibiro goyo ngero kuom joka Jakobo ma Israel ni, ‘Ne gima Nyasaye osetimo!’
24 Abantu basituka ng’empologoma enkazi, beezuukusa ng’empologoma ensajja etaweera okutuusa ng’eridde omuyiggo gwayo n’enywa omusaayi gw’ebyo by’esse.”
Ogandani ger mana ka sibuor madhako; kendo gijuol ka sibuor madichwo, ma ok nyal nindo piny nyaka ocham gima onego momadh rembe.”
25 Balaki n’agamba Balamu nti, “Tobakolimira wadde okubasabira omukisa n’akamu!”
Eka Balak nowacho ne Balaam niya, “Kare koro kik ikwongʼ-gi kata kik igwedhgi!”
26 Balamu n’addamu nti, “Saakutegeezezza nti kinsaanidde okukola ekyo kyonna Mukama Katonda ky’anaagamba?”
Balaam nodwoke niya, “Donge ne anyisi ni nyaka atim mana gima Jehova Nyasaye onyisa?”
27 Balaki n’agamba Balamu nti, “Jjangu, nkutwale mu kifo ekirala, oboolyawo Katonda anakkiriza obankoliimiririre ng’osinziira awo.”
Eka Balak nowacho ne Balaam niya, “Bi wadhi kamachielo. Dibed ni biro bedo maber ne Nyasaye mondo ikwongʼnagi kanyo.”
28 Balaki n’atwala Balamu ku ntikko y’olusozi Peoli, olwolekedde eddungu.
Kendo Balak nokawo Balaam nyaka ewi Peor, momanyore gi kama otwo.
29 Balamu n’agamba Balaki nti, “Nzimbira wano ebyoto musanvu, era onfunireyo wano ente za sseddume musanvu n’endiga ennume musanvu.”
Balaam nowacho niya, “Gerna kende abiriyo mag misango kae, kendo ikna rwedhi abiriyo kod imbe abiriyo.”
30 Balaki n’akola nga Balamu bwe yamusaba, n’awaayo sseddume y’ente emu n’endiga ennume emu ku buli kyoto.
Balak notimo kaka Balaam nonyise kendo nochiwo misango mar rwath kod im ewi kendo ka kendo mar misango.
