Amanani 24
1 Kwathi uBhalamu esebonile ukuthi kuyamthokozisa uThixo ukubusisa u-Israyeli, kasadinganga njalo imilingo njengakuqala, kodwa waphenduka wakhangela enkangala.
Balaʼaam yeroo akka Israaʼelin eebbisuun Waaqayyoon gammachiise argetti akka yeroo kaanii falfala barbaacha hin dhaqne; garuu fuula isaa gara gammoojjiitti deebifate.
2 Kwathi uBhalamu ekhangela wabona u-Israyeli emise izihonqo zakhe ngokwezizwe zakhe, uMoya kaNkulunkulu wehlela phezu kwakhe
Yommuu Balaʼaam ol milʼatee akka Israaʼel gosa gosaan qubate argetti Hafuurri Waaqaa isa irra buʼe;
3 wasesitsho isambulelo sakhe: “Isambulelo sikaBhalamu indodana kaBheyori, isambulelo salowo omehlo akhe abonisisa kuhle,
innis akkana jedhee ergaa isaa dubbate: “Ergaa Balaʼaam ilma Beʼoor, ergaa nama iji isaa sirriitti arguu,
4 isambulelo salowo ozwa amazwi kaNkulunkulu, lowo obona umbono ovela kuSomandla, lowo owela phansi ngokuzehlisa, njalo omehlo akhe avulekile:
ergaa nama dubbii Waaqaa dhagaʼuu isa Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼu irraa mulʼata argu kan kufee iji isaa banamu sanaa:
5 Aze aba mahle amathente akho, Oh Jakhobe, izindawo zakho zokuhlala, Oh Israyeli!
“Yaa Yaaqoob, dunkaanonni kee, Yaa Israaʼel, iddoon ati jiraattu akkam miidhaga!
6 Njengezigodi zisabalele, njengezivande zisekele umfula, sanhlaba ehlanyelwe nguThixo, njengezihlahla zomsedari ezingasemanzini.
“Isaan akkuma sulula diriiraa, akkuma iddoo biqiltuu kan afaan lagaa, akkuma argeessa Waaqayyo dhaabee, akkuma birbirsaa qarqara bishaanii ti.
7 Amanzi azageleza emigqonyeni yabo; inhlanyelo yabo ibe semanzini amanengi. Inkosi yabo izakuba nkulu kulo-Agagi; umbuso wabo uzakuba ngophakemeyo.
Okolee isaa keessaa bishaantu lolaʼa; sanyiin isaa bishaan baayʼee argata. “Mootiin isaa Agaag caala; mootummaan isaa ni kabajama.
8 UNkulunkulu wabakhupha eGibhithe; balamandla anjengawenyathi. Bayazitshwabadela izizwe eziyizitha njalo bephule amathambo azo abe yizicucu; ngemitshoko yabo babacibe.
“Waaqayyo Gibxii isa baase; inni jabina akka jabina gafarsaa qaba. Inni saba diinota isaa taʼe nyaata; lafee isaanii ni caccabsa; xiyya ofii isaatiin isaan waraana.
9 Njengesilwane bayaqutha bacathame phansi, njengesilwanekazi, ngubani olesibindi sokubavusa na? Akuthi labo abakubusisayo babusiswe njalo lalabo abakuqalekisayo baqalekiswe!”
Inni akkuma leencaa ciiseera; akkuma leenca dhalaas ciiseera; eenyutu isa dammaqsa? “Warri si eebbisan haa eebbifaman; warri si abaaranis haa abaaraman!”
10 Ngakho uBhalaki wamthukuthelela kakhulu uBhalamu. Watshaya izandla zakhe wathi, “Ngikubizele ukuthi uzengiqalekisela izitha zami, kodwa wena usubabusise okwamahlandla la amathathu.
Baalaaq Balaʼaamitti aare. Innis harka ofii isaa walitti rurrukutee Balaʼaamiin akkana jedhe; “Ani akka ati diina koo abaartuufan si waammadhe; ati kunoo yeroo sadan kana isaan eebbifte.
11 Wohle usuke nje khathesi ubuyele kini! Ngithe ngizakupha umvuzo omuhle kakhulu, pho-ke uThixo usekuvimbele ukwamukeliswa umvuzo.”
Amma dafii asii deemii mana keetti gali! Ani ulfina guddaa siif nan kenna jedheen ture; amma garuu Waaqayyo akka ati ulfina hin arganne si godheera.”
12 UBhalamu wamphendula uBhalaki wathi, “Kanti kangizitshelanga yini izithunywa zakho owazithuma kimi ukuthi,
Balaʼaamis Baalaaqiin akkana jedhe; “Ani ergamoota ati natti ergite sanatti akkana jedheen hime mitii?
13 ‘Loba uBhalaki enganginika isigodlo sakhe sigcwele isiliva legolide, akulalutho lolulodwa ebengizalwenza ngokwentando yami, okuhle kumbe okubi, okuphambene lomlayo kaThixo, kufanele ngitsho lokho kuphela uThixo akutshoyo na’?
‘Utuu Baalaaq masaraa meetii fi warqeen guutame sana naaf kennee iyyuu, ani waanuma Waaqayyo jedhe qofan dubbadha malee ajaja Waaqayyootiin alatti waan yaada koo gaarii yookaan hamaa tokko iyyuu hojjechuu hin dandaʼu.’
14 Khathesi sengibuyela ebantwini bakithi, kodwa woza, ngikuxwayise ukuthi kuyini okuzakwenziwa ngabantu laba ebantwini bakho ensukwini ezilandelayo.”
Kunoo ani amma saba kootti nan deebiʼa; garuu mee kottu ani waan sabni kun bara dhufu keessa saba keetiif godhu sin beeksisaa.”
15 Ngakho uBhalamu wasesitsho isambulelo sakhe: “Isambulelo sikaBhalamu indodana kaBheyori, isambulelo salowo omehlo akhe abonisisa kuhle,
Inni akkana jedhee ergaa isaa dubbate: Ergaa Balaʼaam ilma Beʼoor, ergaa nama iji isaa sirriitti arguu,
16 isambulelo salowo olalela ezwe amazwi kaNkulunkulu, ololwazi oluvela koPhezukonke, obona umbono ovela kuSomandla, owela phansi ngokuzehlisa, njalo omehlo akhe avulekile:
ergaa nama dubbii Waaqaa dhagaʼuu kan beekumsa Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii qabu kan Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼu irraa mulʼata argu kan kufee diriiruu, iji isaas kan banamu sanaa:
17 Ngiyambona, kodwa hatshi khathesi; ngiyambona, kodwa kungesikho eduze. Inkanyezi izaphuma ivela kuJakhobe; intonga yobukhosi izaphakama ivela ku-Israyeli. Uzacobodisa amabunzi kaMowabi, inkakhayi zamadodana wonke kaSethi.
“Ani isa nan arga; garuu amma miti; ani isa nan ilaala; garuu dhiʼootti miti. Yaaqoob keessaa urjiin tokko ni baʼa; Israaʼel keessaa bokkuun tokko ol kaʼa. Inni adda warra Moʼaab, buqqee mataa ilmaan Seet hundaas ni caccabsa.
18 I-Edomi izanqotshwa; uSeyiri, oyisitha sakhe, uzanqotshwa, kodwa u-Israyeli uzakhula abe lamandla.
Edoom ni moʼatama; Seeʼiir, diinni isaa ni moʼatama; Israaʼel garuu jabaachaa deema.
19 Umbusi uzavela kuJakhobe njalo uzabhubhisa abaseleyo balelodolobho.”
Yaaqoob keessaa bulchaan tokko ni kaʼa; warra magaalaa sana keessatti lubbuudhaan hafanis ni barbadeessa.”
20 Ngakho uBhalamu wabona u-Amaleki wasesitsho isambulelo sakhe: “U-Amaleki wayengowokuqala ezizweni, kodwa ekucineni uzakuba lunxiwa.”
Ergasiis Balaʼaam Amaaleqin argee akkana jedhee ergaa ofii isa dubbate: “Amaaleq saboota keessaa kan jalqabaa ture; dhumni isaa garuu barbadaaʼuu dha.”
21 Ngakho wasebona amaKheni wasesitsho isambulelo sakhe njalo: “Indawo yakho yokuhlala ivikelekile, isidleke sakho sakhelwe edwaleni;
Ergasii Qeenota argee akkana jedhee ergaa ofii isaa itti dubbate: “Iddoon ati jiraattu jabaa dha; manni kees kattaa keessatti ijaarame;
22 kanti-ke lina maKheni lizabhujiswa ekuthunjweni kwenu yi-Asiriya.”
taʼus isin warri Qeenotaa, gaafa Asoor isin boojiʼu ni baddu.”
23 Ngakho wasitsho isambulelo sakhe: “Kambe ngubani ongaphila nxa uNkulunkulu esenza lokhu na?
Innis akkana jedhee ergaa isaa itti dubbate: “Wayyoo! Yeroo Waaqayyo waan kana hojjetu eenyutu jiraachuu dandaʼa?
24 Imikhumbi izakuza ivela okhunjini lwaseKhithimi; bazayehlula u-Asiriya kanye le-Ebha, kodwa laba bazachithwa babe ngamanxiwa.”
Dooniiwwan qarqara Kitiim irraa ni dhufu; isaanis Asoorii fi Eeberin ni qabatu; garuu isaanis ni barbadeeffamu.”
25 Ngakho uBhalamu wasukuma wasebuyela kibo loBhalaki wahamba ngeyakhe indlela.
Ergasii Balaʼaam kaʼee mana ofii isaatti deebiʼe; Baalaaq immoo karaa ofii isaa qajeele.
