Nomery 23
1 Ary hoy Balama tamin’ i Balaka: Manorena alitara fito eto ho ahy, ka manamboara vantotr’ ombilahy fito sy ondrilahy fito.
And Balaam seide to Balaach, Bilde thou here to me seuene auteris, and make redi so many caluys, and rammes of the same noumbre.
2 Dia narahin’ i Balaka izay efa nolazain’ i Balama; ary Balaka sy Balama nanatitra vantotr’ ombilahy sy ondrilahy iray avy teo ambonin’ ny isan’ alitara.
And whanne he hadde do bi the word of Balaam, thei puttiden a calf and a ram to gidere on the auter.
3 Dia hoy Balama tamin’ i Balaka: Mitoera eto anilan’ ny fanatitra doranao, fa izaho kosa handeha; angamba ho avy hihaona amiko Jehovah; ary izay hasehony amiko dia hambarako aminao. Ary lasa nankany amin’ ny tendrombohitra anankiray mangadihady izy.
And Balaam seide to Balaach, Stond thou a litil while bisidis thi brent sacrifice, while Y go, if in hap the Lord meete me; and Y schal `speke to thee what euer thing he schal comaunde.
4 Ary Andriamanitra dia nihaona tamin’ i Balama; ary hoy Balama taminy: Ny alitara fito dia efa namboariko, ary efa nanatitra vantotr’ ombilahy sy ondrilahy iray avy teo ambonin’ ny isan’ alitara aho.
And whanne he hadde go swiftli, God cam to hym; and Balaam spak to hym, and seide, Y reiside seuene auteris, and Y puttide a calf and a ram aboue.
5 Ary Jehovah nanisy teny teo am-bavan’ i Balama ka nanao hoe: Miverena any amin’ i Balaka, ary izany no holazainao.
Forsothe the Lord `puttide a word in his mouth, and seide, Turne ayen to Balaach, and thou schalt speke these thingis.
6 Dia niverina tany amin’ i Balaka izy, ary, indreo, teo anilan’ ny fanatitra dorany izy sy ireo andriandahin’ i Moaba rehetra.
He turnede ayen, and fond Balach stondynge bisidis his brent sacrifice, and alle the princes of Moabitis.
7 Dia nanao oha-teny Balama ka nilaza hoe: Balaka nampaka ahy avy tany Arama, Ny mpanjakan’ i Moaba nampaka ahy avy tany amin’ ny tendrombohitra atsinanana: Avia, ka ozòny ho ahy Jakoba; ary mankanesa atỳ, ka sahatoy ny Isiraely.
And whanne his parable `was takun, he seide, Balaach, the kyng of Moabitis, brouyte me fro Aran, fro the `hillis of the eest; and he seide, Come thou and curse Jacob; haaste thou, and greetli curse thou Israel.
8 Hataoko ahoana no fanozona izay tsy nozonin’ Andriamanitra? Ary hataoko ahoana no fisahato izay tsy nosahatoin’ i Jehovah?
How schal Y curse whom God cursid not? bi what resoun schal Y `haue abhomynable whom God `hath not abhomynable?
9 Fa eto an-tampon’ ny vatolampy no ahitako azy, ary eto amin’ ny havoana no itazanako azy; indro, firenena mitoka-monina izy, ary tsy hatao ho isan’ ny jentilisa.
Fro the hiyeste flyntis Y schal se hym, and fro litle hillis Y schal biholde hym; the puple schal dwelle aloone, and it schal not be arettid among hethene men.
10 Iza no mahisa ny vovok’ i Jakoba, na ny isan’ ny ampahefatry ny Isiraely? Aoka ho tahaka ny fahafatesan’ ny olo-marina ny fahafatesako, ary aoka ny hiafarako ho tahaka ny azy!
Who may noumbre the dust, that is, kynrede, of Jacob, and knowe the noumbre of the generacioun of Israel? My lijf die in the deeth of iust men, and my laste thingis be maad lijk hem!
11 Dia hoy Balaka tamin’ i Balama: Ahoana izao nataonao tamiko izao? Hanozona ny fahavaloko no nangalako anao, kanjo nitso-drano dia nitso-drano azy kosa ianao.
And Balaach seide to Balaam, What is this that thou doist? Y clepide thee, that thou schuldist curse myn enemyes, and ayenward thou blessist hem.
12 Dia namaly izy ka nanao hoe: Tsy hotandremako va ny hilaza izay ataon’ i Jehovah eto am-bavako?
To whom Balaam answeride, Whether Y may speke othir thing no but that that the Lord comaundith?
13 Dia hoy Balaka taminy: Andeha mba hiaraka amiko ho any amin’ ny tany hafa izay hahitanao azy; kanefa ny sisiny ihany no ho hitanao eo, fa tsy ho hitanao avokoa izy rehetra; ka ozòny ho ahy ao izy.
Therfor Balaach seide to Balaam, Come with me in to anothir place, fro whennus thou se a part of Israel, and mayst not se al; fro thennus curse thou hym.
14 Dia nitondra azy tao an-tsaha Zofima izy, tao an-tampon’ i Pisga; ary nanorina alitara fito izy ka nanatitra vantotr’ ombilahy sy ondrilahy iray avy teo ambonin’ ny isan’ alitara.
And whanne he hadde led Balaam in to an hiy place, on the cop of the hil of Phasga, he bildide seuene auteris to Balaam, and whanne calues and rammes weren put aboue,
15 Dia hoy izy tamin’ i Balaka: Mitoera eto anilan’ ny fanatitra doranao, fa izaho hankerỳ hihaona amin’ i Jehovah.
he seide to Balaach, Stonde here bisidis thi brent sacrifice, while Y go.
16 Ary Jehovah nihaona tamin’ i Balama, dia nanisy teny teo am-bavany ka nanao hoe: Miverena mankeo amin’ i Balaka ary izany no holazainao.
And whanne the Lord hadde `come to him, and hadde put `a word in his mouth, he seide, Turne ayen to Balach, and thou schalt seie these thingis to hym.
17 Ary nony tonga tany aminy izy, dia, indreo, teo anilan’ ny fanatitra dorany izy sy ireo andriandahin’ i Moaba izay teo aminy. Dia hoy Balaka taminy: Ahoana no nolazain’ i Jehovah?
He turnyde ayen, and foond Balach stondynge bisidis his brent sacrifice, and the princis of Moabitis with hym. To whom Balach seide, What spak the Lord?
18 Dia nanao oha-teny Balama ka nilaza hoe: Mitsangàna, ry Balaka, ka mandrenesa; Atongilano amiko ny sofinao, ry zanak’ i Zipora;
And whanne his parable `was takun, he seide, Stonde, Balach, and herkene; here, thou sone of Sephor. God is not `as a man,
19 Andriamanitra tsy mba olona ka handainga, na zanak’ olombelona ka hanenina; moa efa nilaza va Izy, ka tsy hefainy? na efa niteny va Izy, ka tsy hotoviny?
that he lye, nethir he is as the sone of a man, that he be chaungid; therfor he seide, and schal he not do? he spak, and schal he not fulfille?
20 Indro, ny hitahy no efa azoko; ary efa nitahy Izy, ka tsy mahova izany aho.
Y am brouyt to blesse, Y may not forbede blessyng.
21 Tsy mijery faharatsiana eo amin’ i Jakoba Izy. Ary tsy mahita fahoriana eo amin’ ny Isiraely; Jehovah Andriamaniny no nomba azy, Ary hoby fanao amin’ andriana no re eo aminy.
Noon idol is in Jacob, nethir symylacre is seyn in Israel; his Lord God is with hym, and the sown of victorie of kyng is in hym.
22 Nentin’ Andriamanitra nivoaka avy tany Egypta izy, ary manan-kery toy ny ombimanga,
The Lord God ledde hym out of Egipt, whos strengthe is lijk an vnicorn;
23 Fa tsy misy fisikidianana eo amin’ i Jakoba, ary tsy misy fankatovana eo amin’ Isiraely. Fa amin’ ny fotoana no hilazana amin’ i Jakoba sy Isiraely izay efa nataon’ i Jehovah.
fals tellyng bi chiteryng of bryddis, `ethir idolatrie, is not in Jacob, nethir fals dyuynyng is in Israel. In his tymes it schal be seide to Jacob and Israel, What the Lord hath wrought!
24 Indro, firenena mitsangana toy ny liom-bavy sy miarina toy ny liona; tsy handry izy mandra-pihinany toha sy mandra-pisotrony ny ran’ ny voavono.
Lo! the puple schal rise to gidere as a lionesse, and schal be reisid as a lioun; the lioun schal not reste, til he deuoure prey, and drynke the blood of hem that ben slayn.
25 Dia hoy Balaka tamin’ i Balama: Aza manozona na mitso-drano azy akory
And Balach seide to Balaam, Nether curse thou, nether blesse thou hym.
26 Fa namaly kosa Balama ka nanao tamin’ i Balaka hoe; Tsy efa nilaza taminao va aho ka nanao hoe: Izay rehetra holazain’ i Jehovah, izany no hataoko?
And he seide, Whether Y seide not to thee, that what euer thing that God comaundide to me, Y wolde do this?
27 Dia hoy Balaka tamin’ i Balama: Andeha ho entiko any amin’ izay tany hafa ianao; angamba ho sitrak’ Andriamanitra ny hanozonanao azy any ho ahy.
And Balach seide to hym, Come, and Y schal lede thee to an other place, if in hap it plesith God that fro thennus thou curse hym.
28 Ary Balama dia nentin’ i Balaka ho ao an-tampon’ i Peora, izay manatrika ny efitra.
And whanne Balaach hadde led hym out on the `cop of the hil of Phegor, that biholdith the wildirnesse,
29 Dia hoy Balama tamin’ i Balaka: Manorena alitara fito eto ho ahy, ka manamboara vantotr’ ombilahy fito sy ondrilahy fito.
Balaam seide to hym, Bilde here seuene auteris to me, and make redi so many caluys, and rammes of the same noumbre.
30 Ary Balaka dia nanao araka izay efa nolazain’ i Balama ka nanatitra vantotr’ ombilahy, sy ondrilahy iray avy teo ambonin’ ny isan’ alitara.
Balaach dide as Balaam seide, and he puttide caluys and rammes, bi alle auteris.
